Story

<p>Hi, thanks for taking a look!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>We're cycling from London to Paris, approximately 180 miles, setting off from London on the 25th July and aiming to get to Paris by Friday.</p> <p>Friends suggested that we should take the opportunity to raise some cash for a good cause, so here we are! I know a lot of people who've been affected by cancer, so this seemed as worthy a cause as any.&nbsp;</p> <p>I know money is tight for everyone at the moment, so if you'd like to support us, many thanks! I'll try to keep facebook updated with our progress when we can.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="color: #000000;"><a href="http://www.cathedralview.com" target="_blank">Cathedral View Town House</a> in Durham City has kindly offered to sponsor the trip. Anyone donating &pound;10 or over can choose to be placed in a draw to win one free night at Cathedral View worth up to &pound;125! (please add your email address with a comment to let me know if you would like to enter and to enable me to contact you).</span></p> <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br /></span></p> <p><span style="color: #000000;"><em>The winner will be able to select the date of their stay&nbsp;subject to availability.&nbsp;</em></span><em>Entries will remain open until Saturday 13th August 2011 and the winner will be announced on here and on <a href="http://www.cathedralview.com" target="_blank">www.cathedralview.com</a> on Sunday 21st August 2011. Any donations after this date are gratefully received, but will not qualify for the draw I'm afraid.</em></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><em>Thanks to the <a href="http://www.spicelounge-india.co.uk" target="_blank">Spice Lounge</a> restaurant in Durham for their generous donation!</em></p>
