How many pastries can I eat in 24 hours
Fundraising for Young Minds Trust
Story
I hoping the answer to the above is a lot ;-)....
On Saturday 2nd June a mini peloton consisting of 6 lovely ladies will be setting off from London on their trusty steeds in the direction of Paris. Their aim…? To not only eat as many croissants and pain au chocolats as possible along route (my side goal :-)) but to cycle the full 300km route to Paris within 24 hours.
Why you ask, would we do such a thing…? This adventure was proposed by an amazing lady called Abbi Naylor who set herself the challenge of completing 30 endurance events during her 30th Birthday year in order to raise £30,000 for Young Minds. You can read her very personal story of why she has set out on this journey and about all the challenges she is doing this year on her website. See link below

I got wind of this challenge through a fellow cyclist from my club and having read what Abbi has set out to achieve this year, I felt utterly inspired and could not let it pass without being part of her fundraising efforts. Abbi is raising money for Young Minds, the UK’s leading charity committed to improving the wellbeing and mental health of children and young people. A charity, I wholly support and truly believe can make the world of difference to 1000s of children across the country https://youngminds.org.uk/ I would love it if you can stand behind this mini peloton by contributing whatever you can.
