The goal is to ride the Tour de France route which this year will be 3320km and 51,550m of climbing.
Why do it? After years of watching Le Tour since the mid-80s and thinking it was something I would never be able to do (logistically as well as physically), I then found out about Le Loop. It was time to try before getting too old!! So setting off on June 27th I will try to get around the route in 21 days, the same as the pro’s, but slower, one week in advance. Not only that but I will be supporting a charity that allows children to take part in sports and avoid a life of crime. As someone who has taken part and coached sport all my life it is a great mix.
You can also follow my training on my YouTube channel. I hope you enjoy it and Vive Le Tour!!
