Between July 17th and 20th, alongside three good friends, I'll be cycling the 300 mile journey from London to Paris.

Covering around 80 miles a day for four days, we'll be looking to tear up the ground in front of us and make our way from London to Paris, via the South of England and Northern France, all in the aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust.

Training has already begun in earnest with a trip up to the Lake District combined with daily sessions out on two wheels to make sure we make it to Paris in good shape.

Whilst John and Dan are raising funds for charities close to home, Alex and I have committed to raising a combined £3,300 for the Teenage Cancer Trust.

The Teenage Cancer Trust do unbelievable work with those aged between 13 and 24 who have been diagnosed with one of the most harrowing diseases around. 

The charity have been in existence for over 20 years now and maintain an immovable commitment to helping to improving the lives of youngsters with cancer through treatment, research and education.

By taking on this challenge we're hoping to contribute in some way to help young people fight cancer and hopefully with your help we'll start to make a difference.

Any donations no matter how big or small are immeasurably appreciated.
