Le Loop - One More Ride. One More Chance to Make a Difference.
In June, I’ll be riding Le Loop again—a cycling event that follows the official 21-stage route of the Tour de France, one week ahead of the pros.
I’ve done this before. It was brutally hard—physically and mentally—and it completely shifted the way I approach challenge, whether in work or life. It humbled me, pushed me to my limits, and changed my perspective.
Since then, I’ve spent the last year training hard, knowing that I had one more ride in me. One more chance to give it everything I’ve got—not just for the challenge, but for the kids.
Every rider in Le Loop commits to raising funds for the William Wates Memorial Trust, which supports disadvantaged youth through art, sport, and education—helping them build brighter futures and stay away from crime and violence. It’s an incredible cause. One I deeply believe in.
This ride is tough. Even one stage of the Tour de France route hurts—21 is a whole different story. But every ache, every climb, every brutal moment in the saddle is worth it if it means we can help a young person feel seen, supported, and set on a better path.
I’ve covered all my costs to ride. Every dollar donated goes directly to the Trust. It’s been a hard stretch for charities and young people alike—and this is my way of giving back.
Please, if you can, donate. Reward the pain. Support the kids.
Merci.
