With the Tour starting tomorrow, it seems a good time to announce the Jour.

http://www.lejourdefrance.org.uk/

In five weeks' time, six of us - including most of the chaps behind [url= http://theridejournal.com/ ]The Ride Journal[/url] and Sam from [url= http://www.singularcycles.com/ ]Singular[/url] - will be doing a 200-mile route from London to Paris, which we're aiming to complete in well under 24 hours.

I have [url= http://www.stewartpratt.com/?p=489 ]my own reasons for setting this up and for riding[/url], but everyone is riding for their own chosen charities. We'd all be massively grateful for any donations you can make via [url= http://www.justgiving.com/teams/ljdf2011/ ]Justgiving[/url].

Come the event itself, we should have some more features on the site, including live tracking, but for now it's all about the cash 🙂

Thanks
Bez

Ok, I'm on an arbitrary mission to tip £1000 by the end of today. £91 to go. Who'll be a sport and help out? 🙂

Bump time - it's just the day after tomorrow and we're all getting a little nervous! Lots of good causes to choose from if you might like to sling some cash the way of one of our respective charities we'd be extremely grateful!
