We‘re the world‘s leading cancer charity dedicated to saving and improving lives through research. We fund research into the prevention, detection and treatment of more than 200 types of cancer through the work of over 4,000 scientists, doctors and nurses.

Story

Nothing but 800 miles of saddle sores, a set of mountains complimented with physical and mental exhaustion stand between 5 people with 1 dream.

With no more than 17 short weeks, we plan to make our way from up North down to the start line  from the Arc de Triomphe and along the Champs-Élysées. From there we shall cycle appx. 800 miles to the Sagrada Familia, in Barcelona, crossing the Pyrenees en route.

During this event we are supporting three charities and aim to raise £1000 between all three:
Antenatal Results and Choices - www.justgiving.com/paris2barca4
Everyman Campaignwww.justgiving.com/rob-bray-paris2barca
Cancer Research UK - www.justgiving.com/paris2barca


Meet the team trying to support parents throughout the antenatal testing process, raise awareness for male cancer, and help fund research for cancer:

Lubos - East European currently without a bicycle and no touring experience.
Jon
- Southern, climbs mountains and runs marathons.
Rob
- Northern, inexperienced radiographer frequently exposed to radiation.
Chris
- Southern, light skinned and still showing sun burn lines from his first cycling tour.
Jef
- Northern, tired and cynical after his first cycling tour


As a team only Chris and Jef have undertaken anything similar before. Together they cycled 300 miles from Didsbury in Manchester to Dunkirk in France raising funds for Cancer Research UK. However, this trip is more than twice the scale and no longer in the UK. There will be challenges but with your generous help and support we will make it as succesful as our tour in 2008 - www.justgiving.com/didsburytodunkirk.

We welcome any support you can muster for our undertaking, whether it be donations, training with us or even a simple "keep going" when we are down. It will all keep us motivated during the trip.

If you wish to support us through donations you have the choice to give to either via the links above.
