Story

As you all know, sadly Douglas Paris passed away suddenly on 1/10/2010. Dougie slipped & broke his leg - it was this fall which led to the devastating diagnosis of terminal lung & brain cancer.

Dougie was diagnosed (unknowingly - with no symptoms) on 01/08/2010 & was sadly taken from the family barely 8 weeks later.

In memory of Doug and the great care that MacMillan provided in his final days, David & Simon are undertaking the London 2 Paris ride, in order that we can thank MacMillan on behalf of Doug & Margaret, & to put something back into the great work that they do.

The ride is a total of 460km over 4 days & we leave London in the early hours of the 6th July, arriving in Paris sometime on the 10th July 2011.

We would greatly appreciate any donations, no matter how small, in order to help this worthwhile charity & for them to continue to help others in the way they helped Doug & his family.
