London to Paris

London to Paris needs no introduction. If you are reading this it means you know it's a firm favourite on any cyclist's bucket list, whether you belong to the echelons of the semi-pro circuit, the weekend warrior brigade, or simply one of "them" riders who just want to strut their stuff down the Champs-Élysées (no doubt clad in Wrapha).

This epic endeavour will depart from the strange lands of East London (not to be confused with London, mind) and chainsets won't stop spinning until you unclip somewhere near that famous tower thingy in Paris. That's no small feat, so brothers will have to train and condition well in order to meet the BoB CC sign-up criteria (yes, that was aimed primarily at the aforementioned Wrapha contingent).

Numbers will be limited so get your training gear on and make you sure you let you regional reps know if you are interested in BoB's inaugural L2P - hope to see you in the French Capital for the mandatory, bike-aloft, selfie!
