The R&R team strives to create a space where experienced riders and beginners alike can find advice from fellow enthusiasts, be inspired at themed meetups, receive top-notch service for their bikes, and enjoy the camaraderie of group rides.
Routes&Roads organizes group rides on scenic cycle paths, historic routes and natural areas around Paris.
The R&R area hosts workshops, meetings, and conferences on bike maintenance, season preparation, and the philosophy of travel. Free workshops are led by professional mechanics and bikepackers who share their practical experience. They explain how to:
-
prepare your bike for new routes;
-
perform basic adjustments and repair equipment on the go;
-
to act in case of a breakdown in the field;
-
plan bikepacking routes and choose your equipment for self-supported trips in France.
At Routes&Roads, you can grab a coffee, recharge your phone, refill your water bottles, buy the necessary accessories and sports nutrition, and listen to travel stories. At R&R, you'll find everything you need for any cycling adventure, whether it's a short ride in 30 km/h zones, a gravel outing on the forest trails of the Île-de-France region, or planning a grand tour across France.
