Story

<p>I am cycling the French Coast to Coast to raise money for all the beautiful children at ECCDS.</p> <p>I am starting the ride at Mont St Michel cycling down the West Coast via Bordeaux then along the Garonne and Midi canals, finishing the ride in Narbonne on the French Riviera. This ia apporximately 850 miles. I hope to cycle 85 miles a day, which would take us 10 days. There are three of us doing the ride with a back up driver.</p> <p>100% of the money I raise will go to ECCDS. I plan to post on Facebook on the way, so log in to follow my progress. The weather looks very poor, so pray for some sunshine please!
