Event: London to Paris 2007
Date of event: 25 July 2007
Hi, thanks for opening this. I’m riding from London to Paris (on a bike!) at the end of July for a charity called Action Medical Research who are raising money for the ‘Touching Tiny Lives Campaign’. They fund research into the reasons why so many babies are born prematurely.
I thought it would be a case of just jumping on my bike and going but having now read the small print, turns out it’s 75 – 90 miles a day for 4 days, nearly 300 miles (500km) in total - never really seemed so far in the car!
So having never ridden much further than the local pub, I’m currently in training and if you feel like sponsoring me not only will I appreciate it, there'll be a drink in it for you next time we catch up!
Thanks
Ian
