Anyone know any places to stay about halfway which have storage for bikes?

Ta muchly...
we did a day crossing from Dover to Calais, then rode 440 miles to Bussiere Poitevine in pssing rain. Roscoff to Limoges in a day? A doddle..

If you wanna do a wussie stop there are loads of formule 1 motels in France.. But really, you need to get down Limoges way as quick as you can.. Roads down there are fabulous!!
