Cycle Steps
This is a lovely route along the coast, past the two caps (Gris and Blanc). It has some steep climbs from Wissant to Cap Blanc and, it is a busy road - so minor roads might be better. It follows the D940 apart from a couple of detorus to the Caps and is mostly through open arable countryside. The small towns are beach resorts - which in France means lots of active pursuits (kite surfing etc).
