This
has to be the best fundraising cycle event in the current
market!
Starting from the city of London, our 300 mile,
4 day bike ride takes us through Kent countryside to
then cross the Channel to Calais.
We then push on cycling
along quiet French country lanes, through traditional
market towns, with views of the luscious green fields
of Northern France.
We’ll pass monuments and
war memorials and the days will be long, but upon reaching
Paris, we’ll know our efforts will be much rewarded.
The pièce de résistance of this cycle
challenge will be a spectacular view of the 324-metre
high Eiffel Tower, which marks the finish line in the
centre of this majestic city.
We then celebrate our
fundraising achievements Parisian style! |
