"One possible solution is to route the noodle from under the bail/clip. Two ways to do this that I've worked with- one is to replace the V brake with one that has the clip attached to a rotating nipple, then it can accommodate whatever noodle entry angle needed. The other is to grind off the clip's pivot rivet and re attach the noodle upside down with a small bolt and two nuts (locked against each other). Sometimes some recurving of the noodle helps to reduce the amount of it's routing awkwardness."


The OP could just enter the noodle under the noodle holder, swing it to the left a bit, It's the same on my Raleigh ladies hybrid, and could by pass the cable housing guide on the frame for better flow
