Tour to France

Brand new in 2007, this event was a huge success in its first year. An intrepid group of students cycled the 400mile journey from Leeds to Paris in six days and raised £150 each for RAG and Lifecycle UK.

The journey involves four days of cycling through rural England, an overnight ferry ride from Portsmouth to Le Harve, two days of cycling along the banks of the Seine and through the stunning Normandy countryside into Paris.

Once you arrive you can swap your wheels for a metro ticket and continue your travels around Paris or fly back, its up to you. Pre-event activities will include fundraising events, socials and a comprehensive training programme.
