Premium Trek Bike
Why did we choose it ?
A reference model from the American brand Trek, it is particularly suitable for a comfortable trip.
Adjustable position, complete equipment, well studied geometry, it's a choice model for a week on the Canal du Midi by bike.
We like :
- Its front suspension & suspended seatpost to absorb shocks
- The "bucolic" position & the easy descent/ascent of the bike
- Comfortable "Royal saddle"
- Its anti-puncture tyres
- Its ergonomic handles
- Its 24 gears to manage your effort at best
NB: depending on availability at the time of booking, we may be able to offer you a model of a higher category (Shimano Nexus transmission system).
Premium Trek electric bike
Why did we choose it ?
This model from American brand Trek is particularly well suited for epicureans or for people who are not very comfortable on a bike.
The Bosh Active motor, the current reference, is particularly harmonious and powerful.
Its low centre of gravity, ergonomic handlebars and grips and easy straddling will ensure your comfort during your journey.
We like :
- Its Bosch Active 40Nm motor and 400W battery
- Its handles and comfortable saddle
- The easy straddling if you are surprised and have to put your foot down quickly
- The seriousness of this historical brand in the VAE
- The powerful braking
- Its anti-puncture tyres
NB : depending on availability at the time of booking, we may be able to offer you a model of the same category (Trek brand).
Trek 24" or 26" child's bike (children between 1m30 and 1m60)
Why did we choose it ?
The Wahoo 24" or 26" from the American brand Trek is a light, simple and versatile bike perfect for a family bike trip on the Canal du Midi or the Canal de la Garonne.
We have chosen nice colours in order to combine quality with the pleasure your child will have in discovering "his bike" for the holidays !
We like :
- The 8-speed single-plate transmission simplifies gear changes
- Its lightness
- Its devastating look! :-)
NB: Followme towing system not usable with children's bikes of this size.
Trek child's bike size 12" to 20" (children between 90cm and 1m60)
Why did we choose it ?
Our Trek Precaliber 12", 16" and 20" children's bikes allow us to offer you a perfect fit for your child.
It's a serious, safe and comfortable bike ready to welcome your child for a great family adventure !
We like :
- Its well thought-out ergonomics : brake levers for small hands
- Its lowered frame, which makes it easier for your child to stop
- Its single speed, sufficient for use on the canal
NB: we can of course remove the wheels if your child is already independent.
Follow me towing system
Why did we choose it ?
Because for us, this is a real revolution in family cycling !
The Follow me towing system allows you to take your child along safely and let them ride on their own as soon as they want to pedal independently. As soon as they want to rest, attaching or detaching them to your rear wheel is a matter of a few simple steps.
We like :
- The child is kept perfectly straight and stable behind you
- The fact that you don't feel the system when your child is pedalling independently
- An adventure shared with the whole family
- The smile of a child pedalling towards independence !

- Easy to adjust air vents for optimal air flow and temperature control
- XL storage space and 2 comfortable seats

We like :
- Stability
- Signal flag at the back
- The child is active by participating in the pedaling
- Safety, the child strapped in the seat with a 3-point harness
- Comfortable sitting position
- Luggage compartments at the rear wheel
Luggage trailer BOB Ibex
Why did we choose it ?
The Bobibex bicycle trailer is a classic for bicycle travel. Many globetrotters have chosen it for their round-the-world trips for almost 20 years.
The single wheel and shock absorber make it possible to enjoy the most beautiful cycling trips on all types of roads.
We like :
- Ease of use
- Suspension and build quality
- Cycling on a bike without the weight of the panniers
- Single wheel with shock absorber
- Being able to easily slip in a good bottle of wine ;-)
Ortlieb 20l waterproof rear bag and Ultimate 6 5l handlebar bag

The 5 litre Ultimate 6 handlebar bag allows you to put your things that you want to keep easily accessible (leaflet holder, sunglasses...).
The touchscreen pocket is particularly useful to enjoy your road book !
We like :
