Thames Hospicecare - London to Paris on a Bicycle

See the countryside of northern France from the saddle of a bike - and raise money for Thames Hospicecare at the same time. This five-day route visits Abbeville, Beauvais and the River Somme before topping off the trip at the Eiffel Tower.

You will be in the saddle for about 7 hours a day, give or take, but you’ll have lots of time to take breaks with your fellow cyclists and enjoy French cuisine and hospitality.

Minimum sponsorship is £1,100.
