Fancy the challenge of a lifetime and the opportunity to meet like-minded people? As part of Chickenshed's fundraising efforts, we hold various events throughout the year in conjunction with Skyline, one of which is London to Paris cycle which takes place in June 2009.

Cycling through beautiful English villages and into the stunning countryside of rural France you'll pass historical landmarks and famous battlefields from World War I until you reach Paris, undoubtedly one of the most magical places on earth. The sense of achievement you'll experience will be one you'll cherish forever – an unforgettable experience awaits you.

ITINERARY
DAY 1: Cycle from London through Kent and North Downs to Dover; ferry to Calais
DAY 2: Quiet winding roads and beautiful old market towns to Abbeville
DAY 3: Follow River Somme and mainly flat tree-lined roads to Beauvais
DAY 4: Rural countryside and villages to outskirts of Paris; finish under Eiffel Tower
DAY 5: Free in Paris; return by Eurostar to London

You don't have to be an expert cyclist to do this event and you don't even need to have your own bike! In fact this event is one of the best introductions to overseas cycling for charity as it is close to home and shorter than most overseas trips. All we ask is that you raise £1,250 for Chickenshed in order to take part.
