A morning on two wheels and two balancing wheels begins at the meeting point on the banks where the Nive slips into the Adour. The air carries salt from the nearby coast and the played-out calls of gulls while riders get fitted with helmets and a short safety briefing. The guide leads the group through the old town’s ramparts, past reinforced doors and a drawbridge, and across sunlit squares where locals pause for coffee.
