So, I've redone the routes one last time, if anyone wants to print directions, or try and get printed maps from these. I'll have all the info, though, so only do it for your own pleasure.
Day 1
(Not quite the London to Brighton classic route: we start closer to the middle of town, stay slightly to the east of that route through the North Downs, and, most importantly, don't go over Ditchling Beacon)
Day 2
(Seaford to Newhaven, just a couple of miles)
The even easier bit, on the boat from Newhaven to Dieppe
All along decomissioned rail track re-paved for cycling, the new "Avenue Verte"
Day 3
Starting on the Avenue Verte and then heading across apparently rolling countryside round the north of Beauvais
Day 4
More countryside to start (with a little zigging and zagging to stop getting on to major trunk roads, and to get over the Autoroutes), then a little urban stretch to St Denis and the Seine. I've not mapped from here into the middle of town - but I hope and have read that there's decent canal-side paths into La Villette and then towards the Bastille.
