Accommodation…
All your accommodation will be provided throughout the three days of the challenge. We will look after your bikes when you are staying in the hotels and have them ready for you the following day.
Your bags will also be available at the hotel when you arrive. Rooms are twin rooms, but single occupancy rooms are available, but additional charges apply. These must be paid in advance and late requests (within 2 months of the trip) are subject to availability.
DAY 1 - NEWHAVEN to DIEPPE FERRY
After our cycling on day 1, we will board the DFDS overnight ferry at 10.30 pm. We will be able to check into our 4-berth cabins straightaway. The ferry will depart at 11.00 pm and arrive in Dieppe at approximately 5:00 a.m., where we will go through passport control and cycle to the terminal for a re-group and a bit of breakfast.
Cabins are 4-berth bunks with en-suite bathrooms. There are also blankets and towels provided.
If you want to book a single-occupancy cabin, we can ask, but usually they are not available. Do let us know when you complete the Rider Form (which will be sent to you after you register); additional charges will apply, and they are subject to availability.
DAY 2 - BEAUVAIS, CITY HOTEL
After an early start, you will have the opportunity to rest in the comfort of the Hotel in Beauvais.
The hotel has great facilities and is 20 walking distance of the fantastic Beauvais Cathedral.
Rooms are en-suite twin rooms, so if there is someone you wish to share with, please do let Laura know.
If you want to book a single occupancy room, please let us know asap, additional charges will apply.
The evening meal restaurant for the evening meal is a 2-minute walk from the hotel.
DAY 3 - PARIS, IBIS CAMBRONNE
After our celebration under the Eiffel Tower, we will take a short cycle (10 mins) to our Hotel.
Like in Beauvais, all rooms will be en-suite twin rooms, so if there is someone you wish to share with, please do let Laura know.
If you want to book a single occupancy room, please let us know asap, additional charges will apply.
The evening meal restaurant is very close to the hotel, located in the Cambronne area of central Paris. Following the celebratory meal, there are plenty of bars to keep celebrating in!
