accommodation planning on-the-fly in Netherlands to Provence, France
I am planning a multi-week, Netherlands to Provence bike trip in May
(or maybe the other way around to give the weather a chance to catch up.) I am getting some excellent suggestions on equipment in another post but now I turn my head towards sleeping arrangements. How best to manage 3-4 weeks of probably on-the-fly sleeping. Camping is out; rather hostels, gite d'etapes and cheap hotels are planned. But I do not expect to have the route so tightly planned that I can know where I will be everyday or night (so as to pre-book accommodation). I can imagine myself either at 8am starting to think "where should I head to today" or at about 3pm wondering "where might I expect to wind up today" and not have a place to stay figured out yet. Does anyone have any tips on how best to plan accommodation on the fly like this, between 3 hours and 3 days in advance? I cannot seem to find a really good website with a map that I could use to look a day or two ahead as I was pedaling. I am remiinded of the Forumle1 chaiin of hotels which do seem to be almost everywhere in case of emergency. (but 30+ euros a night, while cheap, would start to add up.) any tips? |
