On the 20th July 2016 Kate Roberts, a Partner of DTM, and Norman McGarry will be taking part in the Skyline London to Paris Charity Bike Ride Challenge of a Lifetime and are hoping to raise a generous amount in support of their chosen charity, Wirral Hospice St John's,  which was DTM Legal's chosen charity for 2015 - 2016.  They are covering the costs of the trip themselves so all donations will go to their chosen charity.

About the event 

The London to Paris  bike ride takes place over the course of 4 days from 20-24 July 2016 and takes the cyclists through beautiful English villages and onto the stunning countryside of rural France. Kate and Norman will be participating as part of a group of approximately 100 riders and will pass historical landmarks and famous battlefields from World War One till the reach Paris.
