London to Paris - FAQs

So you have questions? Well let’s hope we can answer some of them here…

How far is the ride?
Approximately 300km over 3 days

Do I need a road bike?
Yes

Do you do training rides?
Yes, for more information please check out our Facebook page as details of training rides are posted on there.

What about if I’m a beginner?
The ride is challenging for a beginner but doable. It’s relatively easy for a regular cyclist. Joining our training rides, particularly the Saturday Social rides are a great way to build your fitness and confidence on a bike. We take on all comers but do expect a level of commitment to training - that might be in the gym / spinning classes and some weekend rides.

Do you stop on route?
Yes normally we stop 3 times each day, once for lunch and the other two times for comfort breaks / water top up etc depending on weather.

Do you have support people?
Yes, we have medical and mechanical support on the trip but you are expected to be in good shape, as is your bike.

Can I pay by instalments?
Yes we offer payment plans in the run up to the ride, please get in touch using the contact forms and we’ll work something out for you.

If you have any more questions please get in touch and we’l be pleased to help.
