Cycle to Mipim is an endurance charity cycle ride which will take me and around 200 other property professionals 6 days to complete.
I very much enjoy a challenge and but since signing up for the ride in October last year I have discovered the following:
- The fact that Cannes is south does not mean that it will be downhill all the way.
- Signing up 5 months from the event does not mean you can afford to have 3 months rest before starting training.
- I am a fair weather cyclist.
- Potholes are not my friend.
Nevertheless I will be taking part to raise for Coram, which is an incredible charity.
Any donation would be greatly appreciated and will go to a fantastic cause.
Thanks a lot,
Matt

Raising Funds For
Club Peloton
Club Peloton is a fundraising charity which uses cycling as its platform for challenge events, bringing together a love for the sport and the opportunity to raise money for great causes.
Our main grant recipient - receiving two thirds of all funds raised - is Coram, the UK’s oldest and first children’s charity that has been supporting vulnerable children for over 275 years. Their flagship service, Coram Adoption, is the most successful voluntary adoption agency in the UK., finding loving and secure homes for some of the most vulnerable and hard-to-place children in the country. They now help more than 1.25 million children and young people every year, and this would not be possible without the generosity of our riders
Club Peloton will be supporting Coram’s vital programmes, with a specific focus on Coram’s unrivalled and pioneering adoption service. For more information please visit: www.coram.org.uk.
