London to Mont Blanc - Charity Cycle Ride

Dynamic Adventures have invited a team of 6 people to cycle this gruelling distance to Chamonix in France. They started their training in December 2010 and it is hoped they will complete the challenge in 8-10 days, depending on the weather and how exhausted they get.
The main reason for this challenge is to raise funds for Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research.

The target for the team is to raise a minimum of £10,000 and we are planning a number of activities to raise the money. We would much appreciate all donations and pledges for this great cause.

The Route 672 miles

We will start at the London Eye (great location for photos) and cycle the first leg to Dover, and then onto a ferry to France. Over the next 7 days we aim to cycle between 80-100 miles each day until we arrive at Chamonix and the statue of Horace Bendicte de Saussure, who, in 1760, offered a "substantial" cash prize to the first person to reach the summit of Mont Blanc.

To donate to this worthy cause please visit

Thanks for your help.
