2022 sees us return to France for this well-known cycle challenge.

You’ll make friends for life, push yourself beyond limits but most of all make memories you’ll cherish forever.

Our riders will embark on their journey travelling through the beautiful Surrey hills before crossing the channel into Northern France. From here they will pass some wonderful scenery, into the Parisian suburbs and onto the magnificent Palace of Versailles. The sense of achievement our riders will feel crossing the finish line in the magnificent capital more than makes up for the saddle soreness that will soon wear off!

On our 2021 Bike to the Bard cycle our 100+ riders raised over £170,000 for GroceryAid travelling from Weybridge to Stratford-Upon-Avon. 

“I have been on four GroceryAid cycles now and all have been immaculately organised from registration, to transfer of bikes and luggage, stops, routes and hotels. I really like how everyone comes together on the ride, from different companies but also with different cycling abilities, from experienced cyclists to people who have just started cycling.” Reinet Maas, Global Legal Counsel Beauty and Personal Care – Unilever UK Ltd

“I love the GroceryAid London to Paris cycle. The sense of accomplishment is awesome. The grocery aid team do a great job organising the event, so you can focus on raising money for such a fantastic cause and connecting with colleagues across the industry in a really informal way.” James Waddy, Category Director – Bakery, Dairy and Local, Tesco plc & London to Paris Committee Chair.
