Planning a route from Paris to Cherbourg - any particular routes/roads to avoid? Any best options? It's looking like 360km/220 miles, does that sounds about right?

I saw a route that follows the Seine to Hornfleur and then along the coast, is that going to take much longer than a seemingly more direct route cross-country to Caen? I'm fine on fast-ish country roads if they're single lane and not much traffic, but obviously not the heavier trafficked roads, from both a safety and a 'nice ride' pov.

Here's an example if anyone can comment on any part of it: https://web.bikemap.net/r/1129611?utm_campaign=header_cta&utm_medium=route&utm_source=website
