Entries open for London-Paris 2013

London-Paris 2013 will take place on 20th to 23rd June 2013. This marks the tenth year of the event organised by HotChillee. Entries will again be restricted to 450 places, which in previous years have sold-out rapidly. Successful riders are notified by 13th August.

The London-Paris 2013 also has 35 team entries with 4 riders per team available. Those with an interest in a team place should contact Layla@hotchillee.com and all team places will be allocated by the 24th August 2012.

The London-Paris is broadcast on Eurosport each year. The event has motorbike outriders, rolling road closures in France, lead vehicles and mechanical support.

The 2012 start-line included Tour de France winner Stephen Roche, 1988 world champion Maurizio Fondriest, current professional Magnus Backstedt, rugby star Will Carling, and Mike Sinyard, MD of Specialized (pictured above).

Sven Thiele, founder of HotChillee, said: “The London-Paris Cycle Tour started in 2004, growing from humble beginnings. We now have 450 riders and a support crew of 190 plus, including motorbike outriders, masseurs, mechanics and a Mavic neutral service team.

"We’re incredibly proud to be celebrating our 10th anniversary next year and continuously seek to improve, creating a safe, fun and professionally run event driven by a passion for the sport."
