PRA Chief Exec Damian Hopley today departed PRA Towers for Biarritz, where he is preparing for the start of his Pyrenees Cycle Challenge to raise money for the PRA Benevolent Fund and premature babies’ charity, Bliss.
The 30-strong team of cyclists, which also includes Damian’s former Wasps team-mates Lawrence Dallaglio and Simon Hunter, will set off tomorrow on their 933km mountain odyssey, and you can follow their progress via Damian’s Pyrenees blog, which will be posted daily on the PRA website.
