RideLondon 2024: The 100-mile ride

Taking on the rain-soaked 100-mile RideLondon course, for the first time.

I've spent weeks training and optimising my nutrition, but face injury uncertainty.

Embarking on my first ever sportive, as I join the 60-mile RideLondon challenge through Essex.

Part 5. Having completed the trip twice now, these are my updated tips for planning your own ride from London to Paris.

Part 4. We ditch our bikes to enjoy a leisurely afternoon in Paris, although Gareth is distracted by an auction.

Part 3. We battle our tiredness to cycle through rural France from before dawn until after dusk.

Part 2. It's a rainy start in London as we seek shortcuts to reach Newhaven in time for dinner.

Part 1. Five years since I last cycled to Paris, Gareth joins me in planning a new quicker route.
