Well I've got the touring bug again and this time am planning a shorter break abroad, probably to France.
It's the first time travelling abroad on a bike. So the usual, what's what, road recommendations? Good b&b's? We'll be getting the euro tunnel over as it's only £50/bike return journey (and the mrs doesn't get on with ferries).
We'll only be going for 4-5 days total, so I'm planning roughly 1 day each side for travel (as travelling down from yorkshire) and so 2-3 days actually in France. Ideal mileage as worked out on the end to end last year was approx. 200-250/day. Anymore and it's tiring and painful!
