I'm normally the opposite. Spot long weekend, try to jam week-long tour into it. Tour becomes angry smashfest. I still think KAW is probably fine, we still have a week to recover but if we break something there's not a lot of time to fix.

Or London Olympic Overnighter

80.2km 495m barely seems worth getting out of bed for though

Could do this? https://www.komoot.com/collection/1319068/-the-dreaming-spires-300km-an-offroad-loop-around-oxfordshire
Not done it, but planning to later in the year. No idea what the conditions in Oxfordshire are like at the moment, but probably better than SDW.
Nice and easy one train job too.

Classic bike tour hyper deflation. Start out planning to ride around the world but after assessing annual leave/savings/cat sitters/accommodation decide to go for a nice loop and get home in time for tea.
Maybe check the micro adventures thread for overnighter inspiration?
