One Way Bike Hire Canal Du Midi
Relax Bike Tours & Rentals offers you several options for one way bike hire along the Canal Du Midi.
Their shop is located 400 meters from the Beziers train station. Taking the bicycle onto the train to your desired starting point (Carcassonne, Castelnaudary, Toulouse...) is easy, cheap, and most ecologically responsible. If you decide taking the train is best for you, it is strongly recommended to take the train on the first day of your trip for the following reasons:
Trains often go on strike during the summer months. To avoid getting stuck at the end of your bike tour it is strongly recommended to get the train part over with on day one. That way you can cycle back to the end point and no longer have to worry about a possible train strike.
The Canal Du Midi is mostly unpaved. It will be muddy during and after rain. Your bike might very well get very dirty. The bike might be too dirty to be allowed onto the train. At this point you can of course try to knock off the (hopefully) dried up mud and make the bike more presentable for the train.
Relax Bike Tours & Rentals also offers bicycle delivery anywhere along the Canal Du Midi. A low fee is charged per group of bicycles to cover fuel and toll road costs. During the delivery, any excess luggage can be taken back to Beziers where it will be stored until the end of your bike tour. Bike pickup is also offered. During bike pickup your excess luggage will be returned to you as well.
