London to Paris 2018

Cycle for the College: London to Paris Bike Ride Tour de France Edition (25-29 July 2018)

Cycle over 300 miles from London to Paris and help improve pathology & laboratory medicine services in under-resourced countries. 

In response to the superb feedback we received from last year's participants, the College will be holding the London to Paris Bike ride event this year in collaboration with Global Adventure Challenges. 

The event
This has to be one of the best fundraising cycle events available! The 300 mile plus, 4 day bike ride will tak you through the beautiful Kent countryside to Dover, before crossing the Channel and continuing through the rolling, green fields of Northern France, passing the war memorials and cemeteries of the Somme. The pièce de résistance of this cycle challenge will be a spectacular view of the Eiffel Tower, which marks the finish line in the centre of this famous city. The days will be long, but on reaching Paris our efforts will be rewarded when we celebrate our achievements Parisian style!

If you undertake this challenge you will receive:
•    Ferry crossing from Dover to Calais & one way Eurostar ticket from Paris to London, 
•    All accommodation (with the exception of the evening prior to the start of the challenge),
•    All meals* & water/snack stops,
•    Support vehicles, route markers, English speaking guides, mechanic and medical support,
