The Penguin Peloton - B2B

The Penguin Peloton will cycle from Guys Hospital Tower, Bermondsey to Bruges Clock Tower, Belgium, and back to Dover from 29 Apr – 1 May 2023, to raise money for the registered charity Penguins Against Cancer (PAC). Bermondsey to Bruges ‘B2B’ will see a mix of 10 young, strong, enthusiastic students (Tom Downie, Jamie Dunbar, Theo Roberts, Rory Duncan, Jessie Morgan, Rowan White, Paul Oregi, Toby Davis, Freddie Challacombe, Archie White) plus 18 older, slowly declining Penguins with a combined age in excess of 1000 years (Charlie Beardmore, Ben Challacombe, Pete Davis, Pat Davis, Trevor Kelly, Lutz Hostert, Graham Bevan, Roy Dixon, George Tsolakides, Guy McLellan, Matt Rose, Nick Gibbins, Rob Lancashire, Simon Catnach, Alan Mistlin, Ben Robinson, Kelly Henderson, Darren Jones) cycle approximately 225 miles from Guy's Hospital Tower in London, via Holland, to the Clock Tower in Bruges then onwards, via Dunkirk, to Dover. They will be supported by the inestimable Black Rat safety team of Sasha and Tony Smith, plus Jok Dunbar, and Paul Gillam, the motorcycle outrider. The PAC stalwart, Tim Price will be unable to join the Peloton due to work commitments but will complete B2B virtually, from a South Atlantic island, while observing Penguins in their natural habitat.
