The UK leg of this year’s Tour De France begins on Saturday 5 July and will see over 150 professional cyclists travelling 549 miles over three days before the Tour crosses the Channel into France. On Monday 7 July the Tour will pass through Cambridge and Workplace Law will mark the occasion with a special celebration.
Workplace Law is aiming to raise over £3,000 by cycling 549 miles in its “Le Ride Week” which is taking place between 5 and 12 July. Each member of staff is pledging to cycle a number of miles ranging from one to 100 in that week, which can be completed while commuting to work, in their own time or on one of the exercise bikes that will be installed in the Cambridge office. The week will close with a team of Workplace Law cyclists travelling to Global Generation in London from the company’s head office in Cambridge.
The Workplace Law team has been getting ready for the event by up-cycling an old bike which is being displayed at the front of the building on Hills Road during bike week (14 - 21 June). Training has already begun for the event and many of the Workplace Law team have already been out on their bikes in preparation for the event.
