Can anyone suggest a good region for cycling in a not too hilly region in the northern half of France?

The Loire valley is in the Northern half of France and is absolutely full of excellent, well signposted cycle routes. Also plenty of campsites. About 4 to 5 hours from Calais.

Don't forget the Loir VAlley. You may at first think I am repeating what others have recommended, but actually note there is no "e" at the end of Loir. This valley is a little north of the Loire.
We visited a few years ago, staying at La Fleche. Plenty of lovely cycling from there. The area is referred to as a well kept travel secret in France.
There is a network of old rail routes that is easily accessible from the town.

Check out the Voie Vertes. Many, if not all, are old disused, but paved, railway lines and are therefore not very hilly. I would also agree with the comments about canal towpaths, we use them regularly all over France.
