www.rapha.cc/bordeauxparis-2013-deposit/ The Rapha Bordeaux--Paris 2013 is a team cycling challenge over the famous Bordeaux-Paris route. Covering a distance of 600km, the aim of the ride is to raise £250,000 for Ambitious about Autism, a charity based in the UK which helps young people with autism and their families. 2013 marks the 50th anniversary of the year Tom Simpson became the last Briton to win the race, when he completed it in 14 hours. To commemorate his achievement, we are inviting teams of four riders to attempt to ride the historic and challenging route within 24 hours. This will involve riding at night and will require a generous amount of skill, fitness and willpower. It promises to be the cycling event of a lifetime.
