Le Loop - supporting the William Wates Memorial Trust

I’m cycling the Tour de France!! Well, sort of…


Le Loop follows the official route of the Tour de France, one week ahead of the professionals and finishes 21 stages later in Paris. Riders tackle one of a selection of "Loops" riding anything from 2 to all 21 stages of the Tour de France route. 


I will be challenging myself to completing the ‘Alps Loop’. 4 days of cycling, 659km, 15,100m of ascent. Ouch. 

Riding alongside my dad, who will be completing the full 21 stages. Bigger Ouch. 


Every participant commits to raising a minimum amount for the William Wates Memorial Trust (WWMT). The fundraised money is entirely separate from the participation fee - donations do not pay for my Tour


All monies raised go directly to the William Wates Memorial Trust whose mission is to help the most disadvantaged young people keep away from a life of crime and violence and fulfil their potential. This is achieved by giving grants to charities that engage young people through the medium of sports, arts and education.

It's been a tough couple of years for charities and particularly for young people. This is my chance to give something back and help support young people who aren't lucky enough to enjoy the advantages in life that most of us take for granted.


Le Loop is no small undertaking. Riding even ONE stage of the Tour de France route is going to hurt! Please reward my pain by giving generously.


Merci!
