    Pointe du Hoc

    This quiet path, far from traffic, winds through grassy fields and coastal scrubland, following the very ground Allied troops once crossed in 1944. As we ride westward, the cliffs grow wilder and the wind stronger, and a sense of anticipation builds. Arriving at Pointe du Hoc, the landscape suddenly shifts—deep bomb craters, shattered bunkers, and dramatic cliffs tell the story of the U.S. Rangers who scaled the heights under fire. The contrast between the peaceful ride and the violence that once occurred here is striking. This section of the journey is not only scenic, but deeply moving—a ride through beauty, memory, and courage etched into the very land.

    Utah Beach

    Bayeux

    Leaving Utah beach, we begin a peaceful return to Bayeux along some of the smallest countryside roads Normandy has to offer. These quiet lanes wind through open fields, apple orchards, and hedgerows, far from traffic and noise. It feels like stepping into another time—just you, the landscape, and the soft hum of your electric bike. We pass through tiny hamlets and farms, where stone houses and old barns sit untouched by modern life. Birdsong and the scent of blooming hedges accompany us as we gently climb rolling hills and coast down into valleys. There are no cars, no crowds—just endless green and the freedom of the open path. This hidden route offers not only beauty, but reflection—on the land, the history, and the peaceful contrast to the stories of war we've uncovered. As the cathedral spires of Bayeux appear in the distance, you return with a sense of calm, connection, and quiet wonder.
