I think going forward I'll spend many more weekends on short tours around the north of France.
Yeah, I'm planning on doing this too. Went last year from Dover to Calais, cycled down the Calais-St Omer canal then pootled around some lovely French towns (Bergues, Cassel) and nipped into Belgium (Ypres) before heading back via Dunkirk. Easy, cheap, lots of good beer/stodgy food and barely any traffic.
The second was a ride from Dunkirk down to Roubaix to watch the women's race this weekend. Smooth fast rolling country lanes all the way there and back, lots of mind blowing beer and stodgy French food.
The return train to Dunkirk was £24 and the ferry return was £50, I can't even travel to Bristol for that price. I think going forward I'll spend many more weekends on short tours around the north of France.
