London-Paris with Medicins du Monde UK 12-15 July 2008

Following the success of its sponsored bike ride in 2007, Médecins du Monde UK (MdM UK) is calling for more adventurous cyclists to sign up for the third London to Paris Bike Ride 2008. This incredible three-day challenge covers almost 300 kilometres of hilly - but stunningly colourful - terrain.

In 2008, MdM UK’s London to Paris Bike Ride will leave London on Saturday 12 July, arriving at the Eiffel Tower in Paris by late afternoon on Monday 14 July in time for the amazing Bastille Day celebrations in France’s magical capital city. Cyclists can rest their tired legs on Tuesday 15 July, sightsee or visit MdM's Parisian offices. The return journey is by Eurostar on Tuesday afternoon.

Participants must pay a non-refundable £99 Registration Fee, then pledge to raise £1,000 in sponsorship funds.
