A couple of us are biking down to the bridge next month and it's a part of France I don't know at all. The roads look pretty cool in the area but any pointers to must see roads in the area or on the route would be cool please.
Cheers.

Thanks all, some good suggestions there - will start googling.

+1 for Oradour-Sur-Glane,

Also, ride the Gorge Du Tarn - here's the detour that I did when not the way to spain, the route brings you back out onto the motorway so you can get off at the service area for the millau bridge viewing point. The gorge is spectacular and never ending smooth roads and bends.

Gorge du Tarn is on our itinerary already! Looks amazing. Cheers for link smile

No point going over it,
Unless someone wanted to of course, which I guess we do as we're riding there to do it.

I did because I wanted too & found it a disapointment, hence my comment.
Well I'm not riding all the way down there to not ride over it.
