Le Loop.
Le Loop proves the official route of the Tour de France, one week ahead of the professionals, finishing 21 stages later in Paris after 3,400kms in the saddle.
Riders commit to raising a minimum amount for the William Wates Memorial Trust (WWMT). The fundraised money is entirely separate from the participation fee which I pay myself - donations do not pay for my entry fees or any costs involved with attempting Le Tour.
All monies raised go directly to the William Wates Memorial Trust whose mission is to help the most vulnerable young people avoid crime and violence in order to realise their potential. This is achieved by giving grants to charities that engage young people through the medium of sports, arts, and education.
It has been a a difficult couple of years for charities and for young people generally. Le Loop offers a chance to make a contribution to deserving young people who have not enjoyed the advantages in life that most of us take for granted.
Thank you very much.
Diolch yn fawr iawn.

Aleoli Y Tu
The lady who owns Ale Oli y Tu gave me an on-0the-spot donation and much encouragement when I met her on Wyle Cop today. (My wife and I enjoyed dinner there last night). This is the BEST Spanish restaurant in the UK. Super-nutritious food for Snow Leopards!
