I do quite a bit of biking in France............. You probably know this, but France basically shuts down on a Sunday, and fuel can be hard to find in the rural parts of France.
Most fuel stations are unmanned, and there have been stories of places that will not accept a British credit card.
So, either top up on a Saturday, use Motorway/Peage fuel stations, or use Intermarche supermarkets, which do take UK cards.

Good luck.

We use standard diesel over here in Western France and our paying about £1.0 a litre ie 1.23 euros a litre makes the cost of running much more reasonable. Best fuel prices at supermarkets. Fill up as soon as you are off the ferry or through the tunnel.

Just come back from a road trip to Marbella,stayed in Andorra on way,had no problem with fuel,and do all the fuels.
I only had about 130 mile range on my tank.
Was a bit nervous first of all,but there are loads of fuel stations.oh and make sure you get a full tanks worth in Andorra,it's tax free Very Happy
