London Gatwick to Paris Cycle Ride
An adventurous group of London Gatwick colleagues will be embarking on a charity bike ride from London Gatwick to VINCI headquarters in Paris from 10-13 May 2024 to raise funds for our charity partners.
Leaving London Gatwick on Friday morning, they will cycle down to Newhaven and take the ferry over to France clocking up about 100km on Day 1. Day 2 is a total 120km further into France and Day 3 is the final 100km right to the foot of the Eiffel Tower.
On Monday morning it will be a short cycle to the VINCI HQ where there will be a welcome party!
