Story

As part of our commitment to PAH over the year following Marilyn's passing, La Famille Makins and a few friends are cycling from Twickenham to Paris over the weekend preceding what would have been Marilyn's 59th birthday. All the money raised goes to PAH. We are covering our own costs. Jess has explained it all on our Just Giving Site http://www.justgiving.com/LaFamilleMakins. Donations gratefully accepted.

A brilliant 4 days culminating in ride into hot and hectic Paris on Bastille Day. They arranged fireworks for us! One puncture a mile out and one tumble (Laura) a mile from the end. Special thanks to Sylvie and Kay for being out support team all the way, and Trevor for helping on London-Brighton stage. Good pubs Trev! Nick was a fantastic organiser and navigator. We've raised over £3500 so far. Will we get to £4k?
