Not only will you raise funds for the Environmental Justice foundation's fairer cotton Campaign but you'll get a days shopping in Paris and a chance to have an absolute ball from the looks of the film from last years ride.
"The 2009 fashion cycle ride was AMAZING! I met so many lovely people and although every inch of my body is hurting it was one of the best things I've ever done in my life!" Caroline Reader, Sept 2009
Dates: 14-18 July 2010
Challenge days: 4 days cycling, 1 day in Paris
Registration: £99

What’s included: Travel by ferry to France and return to London on Eurostar, accommodation (3* hotels), mechanics, guides, medical support and meals
'Combine your love of fashion and feel for adventure by making a 300-mile bicycle journey between two of Europe’s iconic style capitals – London and Paris – to promote a fairer future for the fashion industry.'

Cool, I was curious about it. Great idea. Thanks for sharing.
That ride sounds like so much fun--and for a great cause too! I certainly wish I lived on your side of the pond because I would do it if I lived in the UK! A long ride to NYC just wouldn't be quite the same thing!
Great idea for a blog! I jsut bought a Gazelle before Christmas and I'm picking it up this Sat! So excited to find your blog, as I'm a tad obsessed with bicycles:) x LZ
