The London to Paris Bike Ride is an awesome cycling challenge and by far one of the best fundraising events in Europe, attracting hundreds of riders each year and raising thousands of pounds for charities nationwide.
You’ll spend four days in the saddle, cycling from capital to capital. Your journey begins in London, with your route taking you through glorious English countryside as you cycle from Kent to Dover. You’ll cross the Channel and continue through the rolling green fields of Northern France, where you’ll pass the war memorials and cemeteries of the Somme. A spectacular finish awaits you as you reach the home stretch around the Arc de Triomphe and down the Champs Elysées, before reaching the pièce de résistance, the Eiffel Tower, which marks your finish line.
