Zeebrugge to Marseille - 2 men, 2 bikes, 1100 Km

Down Hill Cyclists

Home

On August 28th, 2008, two intrepid cyclists and their support drivers will leave the UK for France. On their arrival, they will begin their 1100 kilometer trip to Marseille to raise money for DOWNS SYNDROME.

In conjunction with Talk 107, we'll bring you daily updates from France as to our progress.

Along the way, the team will have to survive the terrible French summer weather, French drivers, the odd frog's leg, and Ernie's humour.

This site will let all you donors (yes, please give generously!) see where we're going. Along the way, Keith and Ernie will climb every mountain, ford every stream, and no doubt follow a few byways... as we haven't got any sat-nav yet! Grant & Julie will meanwhile, be enjoying air conditioned comfort in the support vehicle.

Use the links on the left to see where we're going, why we're going there, what we'll be getting up to, and who's sponsored us. We've even thrown in a little section about who we are as well!
