Why Go London to Paris Self Supported?<\/h3>\n
\n
Want to take the ferry to Dieppe and enjoy the Avenue Verte<\/a>? Or maybe cross from Newhaven for a more coastal route? When you\u2019re self supported, the choice is yours.<\/li>\n
Without external support, you\u2019ll need to carry your own kit, fix your own mechanicals, and find your own food and water. It\u2019s a pure cycling challenge that builds confidence and self-reliance.<\/li>\n
Every decision, from where you sleep to where you eat, becomes part of the story. You\u2019ll remember the unexpected caf\u00e9s, the conversations with locals, and that perfect sunrise on the road.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
