The eagerly anticipated opening of entries for the 2010 London-Paris will happen on November 30th at 12:00. With a great combination of regular riders and new cyclists looking for a challenge, much of the entry spaces are quickly snapped up on sign up day.
With top cycling stars such as Olympic medallist Rebecca Romero and Paris-Roubaix winner Magnus Backstedt already signed up, it gives the unique and unrivaled opportunity to ride side-by-side with world class heroes. Last year saw Team Sky's Scott Sunderland, former England footballer Geoff Thomas, 1987 Tour de France winer Stephen Roche and a host of celebrities in the public eye taking up the challenge.
Expect more top names to be announced in 2010, if you appreciate a challenge and professionally managed events, then The London-Paris is the event to do; it's the closest you'll get to the Tour de France experience. The 520km is a true test of endurance, made possible by the fantastic support and commeraderie that every L2P participant experiences.
If you're a keen and fit cyclist, hop into Group 1 and ride against former and current professionals, as well as the physically tuned. But if you're not, we have a range of ability groups that make sure you get the best out of yourself and enjoy the whole experience at your own comfortable pace. Where else can you ride like a professional with motorbike outriders, nutritional and mechanical support all the way from London to the centre of Paris? There are two events that have so much support all the way into Paris, and the other one is the Tour de France.
The L2P is for many, the experience of their lifetimes, where they make friends they'll have for life. We're here because we love cycling and we love challenges, we hope you'll join us for the ride of your life.
See you on the road.
