Cycling and Interail

[friendly_fiend]

Just bought a 5 in 10 days travel Interail ticket. Has anybody had any experience with mixing a cyle tour with an Interail ticket?

My plan is to cycle through the Netherlands and get on a train near Arnhem into Germany. I'll have about a week to explore Germany, then I need to get to Legarno or Como in Italy. Ideally I'd like a route with cycle friendly train stations and and some nice places to explore along the way.

Any advice would be much appreciated as I'm leaving on friday.

I am currently starting to plan next years season and am looking to go to europe on a few occasions to race. First of all i hear there are races in february in majorca that you can just turn up and ride by showing your license, these are UCI races i hear open to all. Can anyone provide me with any information on these races?
 
Secondly i am wanting to go to belgium to race for a month or two in july. I am currently looking for a place to stay for this period, can anyone help me out with this? Preferably i would like to stay with others so that i can have help if needed getting to races and how to get started over there.
 
And thirdly, does anyone know of any stage races in europe that individuals can enter? I am looking to go and ride some but cannot find any information about such events.
 
Any help is a big help and much appreciated.. Thank you
