Story

Hi & Bonjour!

Welcome to the team ‘Eiffel off my bike’ website. Thanks for giving up your time to visit us, and for leaving your hard earned cash! It's all going towards a very worthwhile cause.

'Down to the seaside, turn left. Hop across the channel and you’re almost there…' or so they say. Barely able to make it past the garden gate, let alone claiming the yellow jersey down the Champs Ellesse. Even so, our rag-tag band of adventurers & no hopers have come together to give it a go! Just short of 300km (that's 180 miles for the true euro-sceptics) from door to door, the Crystal Palace to the Eiffel Tower. We have teamed up together in the hope that we can convince each other (and you) that we’ll make it. All votes of confidence, pearls of wisdom, notes of wit (aka sarcasm) & advice, along with a gift aided donation are sure to help us with the final push, as we approach Paris (and the end in sight) on Bastille Day.

Steve & Laura have dealt with Médecins du Monde (Doctors of the World) in a work capacity for a number of years. They have seen first hand the hard work and tireless dedication that the UK team put into raising their profile and continuing their good work, not only in London, but bringing humanitarian aid and healthcare to those in need on a truly worldwide scale. This is now our opportunity to give something back and help, in a small way, to make a difference. Accepting the challenge are friends and family, who want to contribute and join the MdM team on a very novel way of quite literally going the extra mile…

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us, as Médecins du Monde will receive your money faster. Remember, if you are a taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support. Auvoir!
