Scooter hire France

[illmonkey]

Off to south of France in a month, 4 of us all over 20, 3 with full UK licences.

I've read we can legally ride a moped (50cc) without a licence, this true?

Anyone got any experience? Costs etc?

On my French (car) licence I can drive a 125cc scooter.

I think you'll find you can only ride a 50CC scooter if you have passed your car test before something like 1995 or 2000. I can being a old git but think they closed that loop
