    Morning all,

    Hope you don't mind me posting a few details about this. Been training on both Zwift and in the great outdoors for this for about 9 months now but only had confirmation that it could go ahead this weekend.

    Restrictions mean friends and family can't easily join us this year in Paris, but a special year to do it as it's the 25th ride and in the 100th year since the Royal British Legion was founded.

    Obviously, I'd be grateful for any sponsorship - I'm aware it's not been a great 18 months for people and won't hammer it, and I've held back generally until confirmation that the ride is happening was received. About £300 off my target, which is better than I anticipated at this stage tbh.

    3rd time I've done this, previously in 2015 and 2017, a 285 mile route this year with 2 or 3 Covid tests to be done before, during and after the ride.

    Thanks for any support folks.

    Cheers.
