Nice downslope from airport to town centre; meaning upslope cycling back.
No AFIS in the week-end (unless one, or another person, has asked for it in advance), but perfectly accessible with Auto-Information radio procedures (in French).
There is a self-service "gate" facing the aƩroclub. The code to re-enter (2910) is _not_ printed on the inside, but the airport administration gave it to me when I called during business hours to prepare the flight. On the other hand, the airside code-free push-button to open the gate is not exactly inaccessible from the landside. The gate is a plain one, not a turnstile, so passing with a bike is easy.
Welcoming aƩroclub let me use their toilets, and their couch to do my flight plan / rest from bicycle before flying away.
Beware: in the "light aviation" parking area, you may see some planes parked in the grass. Some areas of the grass are flat and suitable for parking, others contain ditches and are heavily slanted and are _not_ suitable for parking.
Use chocks, the hard parking is slanted. Or better, park in the "GA parking area" rather than the "light aviation" parking area.
The request is to leave the landing tax by cheque in the mailbox (on the wall of the restaurant just facing the self-operated gate); along with the usual information: arrival and departure times, origin & destination, POB, etc. On the phone (I called on Friday during business hours), they told me "less that 2t? 6.94 EUR" and didn't mention any parking charge. The official price list at https://www.bretagne-ouest.cci.bzh/file/4844/download?token=w4LnwGkv says otherwise.
