It's Wimbledon

I need to get away or there will be a domestic incident.
At my age I can manage about 60 miles a day. Take the basics and wander from night stop to night stop.

I am an hour away from Dover. Thoughts about a 5 or 6 day route. My budget would like to camp but common sense tells me that I need electricity every night.

Any suggestions , either side of the Channel?

If I was only an hour from Dover, it would be an easy choice for me - get on that ferry!
From there, I'm not familiar with the area around Calais, so I would probably get a train south to Amiens. I once did a few day rides out of Amiens which were very pleasant. There's a riverside path along the Somme IIRC which goes to Abbeville and then to the coast at St Valery sur Somme. That was a really nice ride; Abbeville is worth a visit. Plenty of military history in the area too if you are interested in the 2 WW's..

Ooh, I thought this was going to be a celebration of tennis thread 🤣
Only we are going for the first time on Wednesday with pals who got seats for Court 2…..didn’t realise you can take a bottle of wine/fizz per person: glad they are driving 🫣

You could cycle to Paris…maybe camp every other night?
