My plan this year is to cycle from Toulouse to the med coast via the canal du midi – approx 150 miles 1 way
If you’re down that way I can recommend La Charmante[/url], a B&B run by a very nice Irish lady. It’ll involve a bit of a detour from the canal but the scenery and views up in the hills are worth it.
One idea I had was to try for a French Three Seas route. Channel, Atlantic and Med, then fly back from the South. I might be pushing my luck trying to do it in the four or five days I’m likely to be able to take off for it.
