Cycle challenge: London to Paris
Take part in this thrilling bike ride which finishes beneath the Eiffel Tower!
From the bustle of London, you will pass through picturesque Kent countryside, before crossing the channel on a ferry to Calais.
From Calais, you will continue through the small villages and medieval market towns of Northern France, passing the famous battlefields of the Somme and Agincourt.
With long days in the saddle and some strenuous hill climbs, the sight of the Eiffel Tower, your finishing point, will evoke a real sense of achievement.
Further information
You can join this organised tour as an individual or with a group of friends.
This challenge takes place from 18 - 22 June 2008 or from 3 - 7 September 2008.
Registration fee: £99. Tour costs: £600
Money raised over and above the tour costs will go directly to CAFOD’s work with the world’s poorest communities. So the more you raise, the more people we can help.
The trip cost includes all meals (except dinner on the ferry and lunch and dinner on day five), hotel accommodation, support vehicle and trained tour leaders, medical staff, drivers and cooks.
A valid ten-year passport is required.
After a celebratory meal, and an overnight stay in a Parisian hotel, you are free to spend the last day exploring the city, soaking up the sights and romance of the French capital.
This fantastic adventure will create memories for life, and you can be confident that the money you raise from the trip will give hope to some of the poorest communities in the world.
