London to Paris .... On a push bike

Thought I would hopefully help out a RRSport forum member and repost his thread here also

Well I'm calling on the RRSport members, as in just over 2 months time, I will be taking part in a rather challenging charity cycle ride for SCOPE which will entail me riding from London to Paris (280 miles) in 24 hours Thud

It's a brutal challenge, but one I am intent on completing in the allotted time. SCOPE are a fantastic charity and I have already raised in excess of £2,500 for them when I cycled from London to Amsterdam 18 months ago, albeit that was in a more leisurely 48 hours Laughing

Anything that you are able to donate would be very much appreciated. I know times are tough and I understand most people don't know me from Adam, but hopefully I've shown that I'm a decent chap (no comments from you Ady Whistle ). Incidently, I have actually paid the costs of the ride myself, so ALL funds raised will go to SCOPE and not to fund this challenge.

If you are able to donate and help in any way, please click here and any amount no matter how small would be fantastic. Bow down

Many thanks in advance Thumbs Up

ps: I've spoken with Martin and he's happy for me to post this on here, so thanks for that Martin. Cool

Very good of you, nobody made the people disabled that SCOPE supports either, but at least some one is out there willing to give his time and energy to try help others and raise funds Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

A couple of years ago, my Brother-in-Law and many others cycled from London to Paris to raise money for a charity his wife founded into research that caused the death of their daughter. www.port-charity.org.uk

They had photo's taken at the start at Marble Arch but when they got to the Arc de Triomphe, they got a big fat NON! from the French gendarmes when they wanted to get their picture taken at the end of their journey.

Didn't bloody stop us going anywhere we liked in 1944 though, did they? Whistle Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto
