I started the same exact thread in Touring, but then saw the "regional" forum, so I figured here's a better place:
I've seen from other threads that quite a few people have done Normandy, but haven't seen any actual itineraries posted.
I'm thinking about doing a week in Calvados at the end of may. The wife doesn't like biking, so she'll be mobile with the car (probably just jumping from daily point A to point B, while I enjoy everything inbetween).
Does anyone have any route suggestions for someone who is a bit of a foodie and who likes the drink? The purpose of the journey is to see, eat and drink. Not to get anywhere specific.
I'm a bit of an amateur really -- the longest one day distance I've ever done was most of the coast of Belgium (Knokke to DePanne) - around 80 km. I was fine at the end of the day, but tired enough to be very very proud of myself Otherwise it's just been 50-ish kilometer daytrips around Brussels.
Thanks!
