Thanks Maureen. It was great fun, but challenging. Well done to John back in the day, as it is quite tough. It also coincided with the arrival of Tour de France this weekend and many family and friends were there to greet us. Kind of surreal being cheered into Paris by pedestrians and restaurant staff and customers.


Action Medical Research is a long established excellent medical research charity, that has helped with the development of the polio vaccine, ultra sound, epilepsy research and helping with the care of premature babies, etc.


My sponsorship page should stay open for a few weeks. Please Google “Just Giving” and search for “Chris Tatton” and look for my cycle ride. Many thanks. Chris

Over 20 years ago John did this ride twice for  action Medical research. We hope you enjoyed it as much as he did. In fact the whole family enjoyed it as it ended the weekend of the end of The Tour de France and we were all there to see it. A great charity which a group of ladies in Charlbury raised a lot of money for in the 1980/90s and early 2000s and inspired John’s efforts and fundraising.

Well done Chris !
