French LeJog

Having just completed LeJog for the first time we are all pumped up looking for the next challenge.
We were wondering if there was a French equivalent. Looking at the map it would appear that Brest to Monaco would be a good route. Has anybody done this?
Are there any routes that people know about or would we be starting from scratch?

Any help or advice would be great.

Cheers
Andy

    Look up "Diagonales de France". There's a set of them that you can do between the six points of the French hexagon (Brest, Dunkerque, Strasbourg, Menton, Perpignan and Hendaye)

    (Monaco isn't part of France, so it won't do as a destination)

    I'd guess that they will be like AUK permanents, done at 200km per day

    Hi Andy

    AUK have a permanent from Roscoff to Nice if yopu fancy that about the same distance as LEJOG but you can add on things like Mt Ventoux!!
    Visit www.audax.uk.net and follow link for permanents

    Cheers
