I want to get the ferry over to dunkerque on sunday the ride to a bar to watch the tour, stay in a hotel then pedal back on the monday.
BUT, I don't know where to go and where to stay.

I want a nice route about 50miles and stay somewhere cheap.

Any help is appreciated.

Also if anyone wants to going us company would be welcome

    About 50 miles from Dunkerque is Kortrijk, Roubaix, Wevelgem, and any number of other famous names in cycling.

    The cycling's quite flat on the way there (although windy) and as for somewhere cheap, I'm sure there will be plenty of B+Bs (Roubaix is one of the cheapest places to live in France)

    I can definitely not recommend the Formule 1 hotel in Roubaix...
