London to Paris Bike Ride (4 days): 18-22 Sept 2019

Bike 4 Cancer - About Us

Set up by a team of cycling enthusiasts, all of whom have lost a family member or a friend to cancer, Bike 4 Cancer is a provider of days out and short-breaks for British families affected by cancer. We also make grants to UK based care institutions and support research into the positive effects of exercise (e.g. cycling) and how it can help with cancer prevention and recovery.

Cycle from London to Paris!

Cycling from London to Paris is one of Europe's greatest cycling challenges.

With three long days in the saddle, you will cycle through picturesque countryside, small villages and medieval market towns.

With the finish line under the Eiffel Tower, you'll have a spare day to explore Paris before returning home.
