It’s named after the winner of the Tour de France in 1937 and is remarkably well laid out along a former railway line, with several dedicated stops in former railway stations. The way heads to Créon. This place, set around its arcaded central square, a remnant of a former bastide fortified town, is well worth a detour. The route Provisionally, the route starts from Bordeaux SNCF train station. Head down to the Pont St-Jean Bridge, Départ Arrivée accessible via a ramp, to cross the Garonne, whose Bordeaux Créon east bank you then follow for a while. From Latresne, the Roger Lapébie cycle track is tarmacked, well- equipped and safe.
