A little over 12 months ago Alex and I contemplated the idea of a cycling challenge that would be enjoyable and fun but less demanding than the 1000 mile Lands End to John O’Groats ride Alex completed the previous summer. Eventually we arrived at an idea to cycle from the London Eye to the Eiffel Tower in 3 days. Since then we have been planning, organizing and recruiting riders and supporters. On the 1st of July our team of 8 cyclists and 2 support drivers begin that challenge.
The team cyclists are Alex, Dominic, Esther, Jamie, Jonathon, Paul, Tom and I and support drivers are Colin and Dan.
We hope to maintain this blog over the coming journey.
