FOUR cyclists from Marlow swung by French twin town Marly-Le-Roi during their gruelling 220-mile cycle from London’s Tower Bridge to the Eiffel Tower.
Marlovians and keen cyclists Lucas Bergmans, John Adams, Matt Hellewell and Dan Hydes completed the 200 mile ride to Paris over three days.
The cyclists rode for seven hours a day and had been training on and off since last April in preparation for the ride.
One of the riders, Lucas Bergmans said: “The ride was pretty challenging and hard, but very satisfying as the weather was good with great scenery which made it easier.
"Marly-le-Roi was very pretty. It has parkland and forests, it was very nice.
"It definitely brought me and my friends closer together. We spent a lot of time with each other. It was a lot of fun.”
