La Harve or Cherbourg?
Personally I'd probably manage it in 12 days. Thats 10 days riding and 2 rest days. But I won't be the one setting the pace.
Funny enough I've been reading up about cycling in Paris and it sounds to be a nightmare. I've become not so fond of it myself. I'm starting to think about sticking to the France/Belgium border.
hugh.:
I've refined the possible route a little. The last stretch from Luxembourg to Roubaix takes us through some national parks. Starting/finishing ferry port might change slightly.
The big bridge above Amsterdam is 32km long and has a cycle lane. Sounds pretty unique.
Finn the Human:
New haven to Dieppe. Quiet as anything. That second route looks mega.
Hugh how many litres worth of storage did you take on your 3 month tour?
hugh.:
Looks cool alright. Would be fun to integrate some off tarmac sections into it. Not anything like rough singletrack but more dirt trails through the forest. Would depend on what bikes people are using though.

Brought a set of Ortlieb front and rear roller classics. 40l each at the rear and 12.5l each at the front. So 105l total I guess.
EDIT Its 40l total for the rear and 25 total for the front. So 65l all together. My bad.
Didn't use a bar bag and just strapped my sleeping bag and tent to the top of my racks.
