We left a very rainy Saint-Malo early on Saturday morning and disembarked at the sunlit port of Saint-Helier an hour and a half later!Eastern part of the island on Saturday, and up into the Northern part on Sunday (when travelling to Rozel don't miss out on the Hungry Man's fabulous burgers!). The countryside scenery and the villages’ teashops very much evoked Britain (to us French people at any rate); only the roads' names reminded us how close France is! There was a good deal of snow left over from the winter on some of the lanes we cycled, which surprised us, being so close to the coast. By talking to a local bicycle salesman we learnt there are two important bicycle clubs in Jersey and over 50 bike races organized on the island each year!"
