This is a TRIBE adventure with bespoke accommodation and logistics prepared by Love Velo, cycling experts and route leaders. They are specialists in the field with extensive experience of operating cycling trips internationally.

Question 3

Who will the ride leaders be?

Accepted Answer

Love Velo ride captains will be leading the peloton (1:10 support to rider ratio) with  extra support from the TRIBE Team to inspire, motivate and cheer you on throughout the challenge. With one Ride Leader for every 10 riders: no one is held up and no one will be left behind.

Question 4

Do I need my own bike?

Accepted Answer

Yes - you will need your own road bike! It is also essential that everyone has good quality bike lights (strong front and back lights are compulsory).

Question 5

What happens if I need mechanical support?

Accepted Answer

A support vehicle with a qualified mechanic will travel with the group and be on call. The van will be fully equipped with spares allowing the support team to keep you on the road and minimise time spent repairing any mechanicals.  There will also be a few spare seats should you need a boost!

Question 6

How long will the ride take?

Accepted Answer

The event is three days of riding. We will be riding approximately 140-150 km each day, which should take between 6-10 hours (depending on which speed group you ride in).

Question 7

How do I get my bike to and from the challenge?

Accepted Answer

The start point in London is TBC but all riders will be expected to make their own way there. Love Velo will return your bike to London for you at the finish as part of the package. The bikes will be dropped back to Tribe HQ in London Bridge for collection post-event.  All bikes are fully insured du

Question 8

What food and accommodation will be provided?

Accepted Answer

Accommodation is reserved for you for three nights  (Friday - Sunday) which includes breakfast.  Accommodation is selected especially for cyclists with secure bike storage and food options to suit all dietary requirements.  The final night in Paris will be a fitting team celebration!

Question 9

Will I have to navigate the route myself?

Accepted Answer

Our experienced ride leaders will be navigating you from London to Paris. However, we will also be providing the group with GPX navigation files for each day of the route.  Please ensure you have installed the routes onto your GPS before departure and you have checked each one has loaded correctly.

Question 10

Will we have access to our own kit during the ride?

Accepted Answer

Your main luggage will be transported to the next hotel after the group has departed on their bikes towards their next destination each morning. If needed, a small day bag can be put in the support vehicle with any essentials in them.

Question 11

What will we do for food and drinks during the ride?

Accepted Answer

All riders will get unlimited TRIBE nutrition products throughout the ride. We will also be carrying plenty of water should a rider run low or run out. There will be a daily lunch stop planned along the route.

Question 12

What level of fitness do we need?

Accepted Answer

This is a tough challenge that will push you. A good level of fitness is essential - we will be riding 140-150 kilometres each day for three days. However, there will be multiple speed groups to suit all rider abilities so everyone can take the ride at their own pace.

Question 13

What are we fundraising for?

Accepted Answer

As a team we are aiming to raise £35,000 for TRIBE Freedom Foundation to fight modern slavery and end human trafficking. Modern Slavery is a global issue and within the UK alone, there are estimated to be over 122,000 people affected.

Question 14

What am I expected to fundraise?

Accepted Answer

We ask that all participants in Ride for Love fundraise at least £900 for the TRIBE Freedom Foundation. In reality, we hope that everyone will raise more! As a team we are aiming to reach £35,000. Discover more about work to end slavery at https://tribefreedomfoundation.com

Question 15

Is there a kit list

Accepted Answer

There will be a recommended kit list to follow.  Most kit is fairly standard for all riders but we highly recommend you do not forget a spare derailleur hanger or spare spokes.  Both of these can be difficult to source whilst travelling.
Please be aware that the weather can always change quickly.

Question 16

Do we need insurance?

Accepted Answer

It is mandatory for all riders to provide proof of a personal travel insurance policy before departure. This should include cover for participation in cycling and repatriation to your home country.
