I want to make a bike trip from the Bath, Uk to Mouline de Chaves in France.. Any of you have made the route before? Or maybe know someone who had? Or maybe a group that does this kind of trips? I am very unexperienced in this kind of trips but I am willing to do it.
Thank you very much in advance and sorry to bother you.

It looks like a very long way. Around 500 miles, or 800 Km, via the
Poole - Cherbourg ferry.

Will you travel by that route?

I still don't know. I am finding out. I think that maybe to St. Melo could be shorter and nicer, and cheaper!!

Well, best of luck with whichever route you choose.

You will probably be cycling through the nicest parts of England and France.

Make sure you allow ample travel time to arrive at the ferry with due
allowance for booking-in time before departure (BTDDT,NLTS).
I have a memory of camping below the castle at um half way down the
Go-tentin' (SINC!) peninsula.

Can you remind us of how many driving lessons you had to take?
