London to Paris in 24 hours (Apr 2012)

This beautifully shot video starts by explaining where the idea came from, why they are doing it and how long they had to prepare (just 3 months!). On the 19th April 2012, their adventure begins from Marble Arch in London and takes them through to the Arc de Triomph in Paris via Dover / Calais where they battle the weather, illness and 260 gruelling miles in the saddle.
