Sophie Briand Collet testimonial - Free on a bike

Sophie Briand Collet will take us into the world of her book Libres à vélo, le voyage sans appli ni GPS.

Part narrative, part essay, the book presents itself as a UFO, an unidentified travel work. And it is! The author-cyclist invites us to rediscover the essence of bicycle travel... and, beyond that, the essentials of life. Through her experiences on the roads of France and Europe - sometimes for several months at a time - the author shares a different way of surveying the world and valuable advice without GPS, apps or statistics. Just a paper map, time, listening and confidence in the unexpected.

Sophie Briand Collet is passionate about cyclo-voyage, and advocates a sensitive and assertive approach, far removed from the all-digital world. She will talk to us about: freedom and surpassing oneself, the importance of encounters, her philosophy of life refocused on the essentials.

Acclaimed by booksellers and readers alike, Libres à vélo makes you want to get on your bike... but also to question our habits, our rhythms and our relationship with the world.

An inspiring encounter, open to all - whether you're a cycling enthusiast, curious about itinerancy or simply looking for a breath of fresh air.
