Thanks everyone for the kind words.
Got a small bit of money saved so - finally - will be on the road in August.
I will be staying a week in Nice so need to begin planning a route down there.
I'm happy to do decent mileage daily.
First thing - what is the best way out of Dieppe, around Paris, for the first couple of days of riding?
I'd like to put a couple bigger days in to get clear of the north, as there isn't anything there right now I'd like to see and am not really fussed about spending anytime near or in Paris.
I'm weary of just sitting on the national cycle routes as they seem a touch boring, as people have mentioned earlier in the thread. But maybe this is the better option for the first couple of days? I imagine it won't be so boring as it'll be the start of the trip and I'm sure I'll be happy just to be riding.
