The whole idea started a few weeks ago at the end of my RPM class. We were talking about cycle expeditions to raise money for helping people less fortunate than ourselves and Jan suggested Tour For Life (a particularly tough route). A long distance cycle ride was already on my list of things to do so the timing seemed just right.
We will ride for 8 days pretty much non-stop from Italy to NL between 30 August-6 September to raise money for Médecins Sans Frontières (who provide urgent medical assistance to victims of war and disaster around the world). This will be one of the biggest endurance challenges I've ever faced :) We need to raise Euro 2500 each in the coming 8 weeks.
I'll also be making a film of the journey. A friend of Jan's will drive with us since we need our stuff to follow us on 4 wheels. If anybody wants to join our "ploeg" of two then get in contact before July 4th. The Tour For Life organization can also use volunteers. You get to enjoy the striking landscape with none of the sweat!
