About Dan Cullen-Shute

Profile picture

One of the four original 'overweight' Curistas, I'm back for the 10th ride, more overweight than ever, and in no way ready to tackle the 100km of pedalling and 2000m of vertical climbing that I'm going to be undertaking. That'll entail the Montée à Gourdon and the Col de Vence, both of which you can Google if you feel like seeing just how foolish a human I am, and imagining just how much pain I'm going to be in.

To remind anyone who's arrived here, and is questioning how much to give: Le Cure is entirely self-funded and volunteer-supported, so every single penny you donate will go directly to one of the 7 Le Cure Fellowships at the Royal Marsden. You're not funding anyone's cycling holiday here - not least because if I had the choice, I really, really wouldn't be going on a cycling holiday...

About Le Cure 2023

Here we go again!

Le Cure de France is a charity cycling event established in 2014 to raise money for breast cancer research at the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity.  So far we have raised over £2.4 million to fund our Le Cure fellowships, but have much more work to do to help cure cancer. 

This is your opportunity to join us for our special, tenth year.  Riders will start in Sestriere in Italy and finish in Mougins in the Cote d'Azur for our final night party and 10 year celebration! 

For the first time, you can also register to join us in Mougins and cycle the final day only. 

As ever, our focus is raising money to fund new, cutting-edge cancer research at the Royal Marsden Hospital.
