I'm cycling from London to Paris non-stop in under 24 hours to raise money for the Teenage Cancer Trust. Unsurprisingly, fellow compatriots have been somewhat thin on the ground, so it'll be a solo effort!

The planned distance between Trafalgar Square and the Arc de Triomphe is around 185 miles which is the equivalent of Chester to London; also known as a very long way.

The 4 hour ferry offers some respite but cuts considerably into the available time meaning maintaining a high average speed and limiting breaks is key.

Overall cycling through the night is pretty grim but it'll be a good challenge so please be as generous as you can for a great cause!

Thanks,

James.
