Seeds of an idea....

Brittany is awesome! I can really recommend Dinan and St Malo (and the Madone des Motards event if you're in the area in August!) - and countless other places too!

Let me know if you plan to go to Brittany, I'll give you a list of places to go (and some great roads for you to enjoy!) 

As I said Christo, just an idea at the moment. First I'd need to read up extensively on the regions, and work out exactly which castles I'd want to visit (something to keep me occupied next winter). Then, if it gets that far, I might well come to you for some route suggestions  :thumbup

If it's next year, it'll be when I've left Uni, and I might have to join you!  :thumbup

Just a few persuaders...  :lol

Look at images of:
Léhon (Just beautiful! Nice abbey there)
Dinan (some good English/French history there!)
St Malo (Birthplace of Jacques Cartier, who discovered Canada)
The Mont St Michel (Great, but SUPER busy in Summer - better for winter to see that)
Fougeres (Nice castle)
Combourg (Another nice castle, and home of the French author Chateaubriand)
Cancale (SUPERB oysters and seafood - and a cracking road along the cliffs to St Malo!)

All of the above are within an hour's ride of my house!

Further south, and supposedly superb (but not been myself yet!)
The Golfe du Morbihan
Carnac (Like Stonehenge, but bigger and better!)
Nantes
