This summer I am cycling a total of 510 kilometres from Paris to Geneva, over 4 days! (and yes, that is far!) The first 3 days will be going through France, the last day entering Switzerland and the Jura mountains, The biggest challenge will be scaling the Col de la Faucille (1232m) - a climb which had featured in the Tour de France on many occasions! I take the Eurostar from London to Paris on the 7th of June and return from Geneva on the 12th.

I am joining my cousin Vinny in his support of the Royal Marsden Cancer Campaign through this challenge. The money raised will go towards essential equipment and pioneering research at the Royal Marsden, Europe’s largest cancer centre. Please give whatever you can afford to help this worthy cause! Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Royal Marsden Cancer Campaign gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

Thank you!
