France for a few days would be probably cheaper, but I'd like as much time off the bike as on if I were abroad now personally.
What really appeals to me most in this weather, is a week riding the Welsh forests on an enduro bike as part of an organised trip with nice camping or rural accommodation and a tasty bbq with lots of cold beer/cider every night. You'd be paying hundreds for such an adventure week though, as most of us live in the wrong place!
Will be a while before I've got one of my bikes built for cheap off roading, so I quite fancy hiring one of these new fangle trick enduro bikes to see how awesome or not they are for a noob that's not been off road properly for 10years or more. |

Extreme wanking: Wanking at a public event, or whilst riding your bike, or at the front desk of the local cop shop, or at a wedding ____________________ I am the sum total of my own existence, what went before makes me who I am now! |

This.
For me, it would be the Normandy battlefields, memorials and museums of WW2, or cathedrals and abbeys or, how about connect the dots with these:
https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Attractions-g187179-Activities-c47-t6-Normandy.html
Or head down to the Moselle valley in Germany if you're into wine, or go down the B500 in the Black Forest, maybe come back up the Route des Cretes in the Vosges if it's just the riding you're interested in, or...
Give us a clue what you like? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

On the two ferries I've used, they put a thick cushion over the seat and ratchet it down with straps. Nowt to worry about. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

On a less-than-serious note, cos bikes don't tend to run very well at the bottom of the English Channel? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Indeed, there's not many other places where you can be driving/riding down a road and go straight past a real tiger tank. |
I missed out on a King Tiger somewhere in the Ardenne, but did see these in Bastogne:

Which is another idea: Ardennes region? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017
