Lyon to Marseilles 2009 · 14 May 2009

We're dedicated to beating blood cancer. We fund research and support those affected. Since 1960, we've invested over £500 million in blood cancer research, transforming treatments and saving lives. The day we beat blood cancer is now in sight and our researchers are determined to finish the job.

Story

Thanks for visiting PDR Construction's fundraising page.

Having previously cycled 200 miles from London to Paris in 2007, 335 miles from Paris to Lyon in 2008, this year we start the 3rd leg of our cycle tour of Europe and 18 of us will be covering the gruelling 266 miles trek through the Alpes between Lyon and Marseilles starting on June 10th. We will be taking in Mont Ventoux along the way - it features in the Tour de France and will without doubt be the toughest day's cycling of our lives.

 

Update: Well, we did it and have exceeded our fundraising expectations into the bargain. The Ventoux was simply the hardest thing some of us have tackled in our lives and we fully believe we have earnt your donation this year! Thanks to all who have sponsored us on our continuing epic European journey and we hope to send out thank you letters together with one or two photos shortly, along with the overall team total which we hope will be somewhere in excess of £30K.

 

Thanks again on behalf of ourselves and Leukaemia Research,

 

Paul Dransfield, Lee Newsham & David Maughan
