Derek McMenamin is raising funds for a good cause.
Dear Curistas
As you probably know, 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 £2.7 million to fund our Le Cure fellowships, but have much more work to do to help cure cancer.
So here we are - time to cycle up mountains again! This year the route is based around Mt Blanc and will take us from Meribel (and over the formidable Col de la Loze) into Italy and Switzerland before we head to the finale in Chamonix, at the heart of the French Alps.
Whether you're joining us for the whole event or the last day, get signing up and get cycling! It promises to be another great year raising money to fund new, cutting-edge cancer research at the Royal Marsden Hospital.
