The team of RBC staff and clients will set off at 7.00am on 10 September leaving well-wishers in their wake and proceed south towards Newhaven. Once their ferry has dropped them in Dieppe it will be time for a well-earned overnight rest before our riders, all of mixed ability, will spend their Friday meandering through rural Northern France toward their second overnight stopover in the beautiful city of Beauvais. From here, Team RBC will surface in the early hours of day three, with crystal clear heads and a solid resolve to reach their final destination in front of Gustav Eiffel's iconic monument.

Last year's four day feat helped raise over £50,000 for Great Ormond Street Hospital. To push Team RBC to over £1.5 million raised for GOSH since 2009, a new target of £70,000 has been set for the RBC Ride for the Kids this year. Please donate whatever you are able, however small it may seem, and help Team RBC reach its goal. You'll be helping us secure the best possible treatment for young patients who frequently only have Great Ormond Street Hospital to turn to for the treatment they desperately need.

Working in the City? Why not come and cheer our riders on their way on 10 September at 7.00am at the junction of Upper Thames and Queen Streets.
