[OT] - My trip to Italy, suggestions please.

Route

I'm going to stay at the misses (parents) place in Italy, and have decided to ride there.

I didn't know who else (or where else) to ask for advice on my route.
I'm planning 2-4 days each way, would like to camp a little (this is a test to break in my new bike (cheers Anton) and see if I can handle proper distance riding).

I know NOTHING about Europe, what to see, good rides etc.
I want to avoid motorways for the most part.. unless time is a factor or I'm in a boring region.
Oh and of anyone wants to come, that's cool too!
Take a look at the link and you'll see that you can drag and drop the way-points or create your own...
I invite you all to alter my route and re-post the URL once you're done...

Anyhoo, I'm sure I'm in the wrong forum, but thought I'd start with the dommy area, cause that's what I'll be riding...

Cheers all!
Tris... !!!

There's a couple of crossings between France and Italy that could be considered. Check out this thread for more details: Stella Alpina 2007
