Eikon is very excited about being part of this event run by third party organiser “Classic Tours”. Here is what they say about the event to whet your appetite!
The London to Paris Cycle Ride is one of our most popular events, and last year around 70 cyclists took part. The event covers 300km in three days and is a great way of seeing some beautiful countryside.
In terms of training, it is quite a tough challenge (especially the first day down to Dover) however the second and third days ease off a bit – taking a more leisurely pace through the Norman countryside. That said, it is also designed to be an inclusive event, so someone of average fitness who began moderate bike training 6 months in advance should have no trouble taking part.
This year’s dates are 9th-12th September and the cost is £1,200 in sponsorship which would cover 50% cost of the event and a 50% contribution to Eikon. These costs are fairly inclusive covering the Ferry Dover – Calais, then the Eurostar Paris – London. Accommodation, transfers, full medical support, experienced guides, support staff, water and all meals except breakfast on day 1 and dinner on day 4 (although the cost does not cover personal insurance which is needed).
