He's right you know! And at this time of year it can be even grimmer on the continent when the waether is crap than here. And bloody cold as you go further south in France.
If it were me I would plan not too many miles and some decent towns to visit and sites to see in case the weather is too rubbish for riding. The Belgium idea is good (although unsure about how much fun the roads are) as you could do Bruges, Brussels, Antwerp etc all very easily which have enough to do and nice bars to hole up in if its wet.
Along the top of France to St Malo and back might be nice, or pos too far from your end of things.
