Superb wines, oysters and select cheese. For all those attracted to an adrenaline rush and different adventures, there are numerous accompanying events. There is Motorcycles and Art, an exhibition set up in nearby San Sebastian. You can also compete in, or, if you’re not in the mood, watch the retro style flat track race on a sandy oval called El Rolo, located a stone’s throw away from Biarritz. Fun and adventure guaranteed! As well as lots of excitement. You can take day trips too. A nearby hill hosts a “vintage” mountain speed challenge on a very short track, with two bikes racing at a time. The Punk’s Peak Race takes place on a public road, of course closed for traffic for safety reasons. Oh, right. I almost forgot. Obviously... WAVES. That is what Biarritz is all about. A surfing competition is also part of the event. Some bring their boards to the beach on their bikes. It is a must see and if you have the balance, you too can join the handsome surfers of all ages and both genders, masterfully gliding across the surface of the water.
