My other half disapears for half the summer to France taking our car with bike rack with her.
I fancy cycling over to France to join her, the shortest route avoiding the autoroutes/motorways/dual carriageways would take me from Warwickshire to Portsmouth and then from Saint Malo to our place in the Vendee, a route of about 330 miles.
Now I'm a slow old pootler and normally average the typical sort of 14-15 Mph rather than blasting along at silly pace.
How many days do you reckon I should be planning for and would Bivvying or credit card B&Bing be the way to go?
