So who is making their holiday plans for 2016 now? There are some great cycling roads around there, lots of good places to stay and really good food and drink to enjoy while you're there.
It's an easy ferry ride from Portsmouth to Caen or Cherbourg, or about 3-4 hours drive from Calais, so easier than doing the Grand Depart in Yorkshire for southerners too!
I think my paltry collection of KoMs around the area are probably at significant risk though, especially given stage 1 looks like it could go right past our house. I guess we have to wait until the big unveil of the full route next year to see exactly where it does go though.
