<p><strong><span style="color: #000000;">Day 1: London to Calais 95 miles</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000000;">Day 2: Calais to Abbeville 75 miles</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000000;">Day 3: Abbeville to Beauvais 70 miles</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000000;">Day 4: Beauvais to Paris 60 miles</span></strong></p>
<p>For all of you that know me well - I know what you are thinking. There is no way that the Yorkshire Pudding can fit into lycra, never mind cycle from London to Paris. I have to admit I have my own serious doubts. 95 miles on day one already sounds insane. Following it up with a further 205 miles over the next 3 days is beyond this northerner's reasoning. But, a challenge is a challenge and it is all for a great cause!</p>
<p><strong>Great Ormond Steet Hospital</strong> provides world class care for childrren. It pioneers new treatments and cures for childhood illness and each year over 170,000 children are treated by the hospital.</p>
<p><br />So as you can see - this brutal challenge is worth it!</p>

Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.
