In August I will be joining a number of other cyclists from across the world as part of a week long cycle around the French Alps, which will include many of the classic climbs from the Tour De France. During the week, we will cover a distance of c750km and climb a total of roughly 15,000 metres (I'll certainly be feeling it in the legs, by the end of the week!).

As part of this, I am aiming to raise money for Hazel's Footprint's Trust, a fantastic charity set up in 2004 in memory of a dear friend, and for which I'm a trustee of. We aim to raise money for educational causes in developing countries across the world and more details can be found at https://www.hazelsfootprints.org.
