Cherbourg

France • Start/finish: Cherbourg • Distance: 150 miles • Riding time: 5 hours • Cherbourg • There's some lovely, relaxed riding on the Cherbourg peninsula – though it wasn't quite so peaceful in June 1944... This route loops out to some of the key sites from D-Day, before heading to the west coast for an ice cream on the way back to Cherbourg.
