This unique itinerary is designed to give the participant a huge feeling of achievement in taking on a great challenge and a chance to visit three of Europe’s most vibrant cities. Along the way the cyclists will experience rural England, Holland and Belgium and return on the world famous Eurostar, a unique travel experience in itself.

Cycling is possibly the best way of experiencing the surroundings, and although this event will be hard going at times, the chance to cycle into the heart of Amsterdam and Brussels will be very special. The cycling will be varied passing through English suburbia, Essex wetlands, Dutch hamlets, tulip fields, Belgian villages and Europe’s most historic cities.

Each night we will be treated to high quality local restaurant food and stay in high standard hotels. The route covers approximately 300 miles, mostly on minor roads and lanes. The cyclists will be supported along the way by Across the Divide cycling guides and doctors who will ensure the safety and well being of the participants, and logistical staff who will ensure that everything is prepared ahead of your arrival.

This event also provides the opportunity for individuals to raise money for the charity of their choice, as well as small charities to raise funds and awareness. So if you are an individual or group who want to take part in a challenge of a lifetime, whilst raising funds for the charity of your own choice? Then this event is perfect for you! One great benefit of these events is that you only need to enter one person, however if you book / or are a group of 15 you will get the 16th place completely free.
