My story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

Seven inadequately trained cyclists are riding from Brighton to Paris, setting off on the night of Friday 27 September and arriving there, unaided and without proper mapping equipment, 125 miles and not more than 24 hours later. Oh, and we'll all be riding single-speed or fixed-wheel bikes. That means no freewheeling (for the fixies) and approximately 108,614 pedal strokes each.

To be honest, we're stupid enough to do this anyway, but we thought it would be a good opportunity to raise some money for charity. So we're doing it for the kids. Please give generously to support Unicef. We're paying for the trip ourselves, so all of your money will go directly to this important charity.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: UNICEF UK 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.

One day, one gear: epic.
