Provence
 

We are thinking of doing a biking trip in Provence next year. I know that we do not want to do not want to do summer. what are the pros and cons of May or September?

I would expect that June would be best for biking. Countryside is prettier in June than September.

Also the days are longer in June. More time to ride, more time to figure out where you are if you get lost.

June is also less likely to have trails closed because of fire hazards.

Fire hazards, tell me more. Is there a concern on the roads we would be biking?

here's a link that may answer your question

Thank you, this terrific. I am going to post a similar question about the burgundy area now. If you have any feedback that would be greatly appreciated.
