About Toby Barker

In the past I have told people that going to the South of France for MIPIM can be hard work and understandably received little or no sympathy. My regular means of travel to and from Cannes has been by plane but each year I have seen the cyclists arrive and thought that maybe one year I would try it. Call it what you like (eg mid life crisis) but that year has arrived, The total distance is c1,000 miles but only the very hardy cycle the whole way and lesser mortals such as me will cycle a minimum of 75 miles a day over 6 days so we will notch up at least c500 miles. Its quite a daunting challenge particularly as I didn't even own a road bike this time last year and am certainly one of the rookies. Apart from the challenge of it, my other main motivation is that the event raises money and provides support for a very worthwhile causes including Coram, with each rider pledging to raise at least £3,000. I would be very grateful for your support and the thought of doing something worthwhile and raising funding for Coram will certainly help me get through some of those saddle sore hours ahead! Thank you. Toby
