Since starting Le Cure, Richard has cycled the equivalent of the height of Mount Everest 3.99 times, and cycled around the m25 6.25 times! That's 35,264 vertical metres and 1,175 kilometres.

Le Cure Highlight:

Finishing and knowing I never have to get on my bike again! I do seem to get back on my bike anyway.

Toughest Moment:

Getting chilly on the top of the Col d'Iseran (closely beating the cycle to the hotel from the bar at Alpe d'Huez - when I had naively thought all the climbing was done).

Top Tip

Enjoy. It is a privilege to cycle in such beautiful surroundings (even if it is hard work on occasion).
