MAP supporter, Jim took part in the sponsored London2Paris cycle ride last August and raised money for Palestinians living under occupation and as refugees. He tells us about his experience.
If you are interested in taking part in a MAP challenge event similar to this or want to support our work, please visit our website.
"London2Paris for MAP is a ride I knew I would love to do. With some help and information from MC events I kickstarted my fundraising journey and began my training regime."
"Before I knew it, it was day one of the ride. Considering I had never met any of the team before, it wasn’t long before I felt completely relaxed and at one with the group. The passion of these riders was incredible.
The last day of the ride began on busier roads as we headed into Paris. As we started to see the Eiffel Tower. It sunk in that the challenge was nearly complete."
Jim smashed his fundraising target and raised £1,055 for MAP projects. If you are interested in taking part in the London2Paris cycle for MAP, you can register below.
