Our London to Paris Bike Ride is in collaboration with Global Adventure Challenges. This awesome cycling challenge is by far one of the best fundraising events in Europe, attracting hundreds of riders each year and raising thousands for charities nationwide. 

About the event

Setting out from London we will ride through the British countryside before crossing the channel from Dover to Calais. In France we will pedal through historic towns, winding country roads and rolling green hills before reaching Paris. Then you can enjoy a final sprint along the Champs-Élysées. You will be in a prime position to see the world’s biggest cycling stars following in your tyre tracks the next day when the Tour de France comes to a close.
