Cycle to help children like Emmy
Emmy's Story
Emmy has Vici syndrome, a very rare and life-limiting genetic disorder. Vici syndrome causes a wide range of symptoms which usually include recurrent infections, heart problems, delayed development, deterioration of the nervous system, and seizures. Sadly, there is currently no cure or effective treatment and most affected children lose their lives at a very young age.
“I hope for the same things that all parents hope for – health, happiness and longevity but within a different framework I guess.” says mum Ellie.
Sadly, there are currently no effective treatments that can cure or slow the progression of Vici syndrome. With Action Medical Research funding, Professor Michael Duchen and his team at University College London hope to change this. They aim to better understand and target the cellular processes that go wrong in Vici syndrome – and to test existing drugs that could help

Passing through some of the UK’s most spectacular scenery the route will closely follow the 2027 Tour de France route. Certain changes will be made to ensure the ride remains enjoyable and safe for cyclists of all abilities.
What time do we need to register on the day and when do we leave?
Times will be confirmed nearer to the event date.
How will my bike be transported?
Bike transport from London to Edinburgh and from Liverpool to London are included, so you only have to get yourself there and back!
How much do I have to raise in total?
You will need to commit to raising a minimum of approximately £2,000 including the £100 entry fee. This amount covers all trip costs and the majority of food and drink. There is also an option to pay up front if you would like to do so.
When do I need to have raised and banked my sponsorship money by?
This information is coming soon.
What kind of rider takes part?
This event is open to everyone from hobby rider to enthusiast. The riding speeds vary from 10mph to 18mph so you will always find someone to ride with regardless of your speed or experience.
What is the typical speed of a rider on this trip?
Traditionally our corporate challenges attract a mixed group of cyclists, from those starting out to everyday riders. On average there will be riders cycling at around 10mph through to 17/18mph.
What kind of bike do I need?
We recommend a road bike which is fully serviced and in good working order. Some riders use hybrid bikes and replace the tyres with thin tyres. We would not recommend a mountain bike for these kinds of distances.
Do I need to wear a cycle helmet?
Yes, you must wear a cycling helmet to take part in an Action Medical Research bike ride.
Where will we be staying?
The accommodation across our tour is based on 4* hotels. Hotel information for our Grand Depart Tour will be updated soon.
Can I book a single room supplement?
Yes, you can make an additional single supplement payment if you would prefer to have a single room for the entire trip (and not share with anyone). This is on a first come first served basis.
You will be invoiced for this separately after the registration process.
I’m worried that I might get lost
Firstly, you have no need to worry! There will be a ride leader to help you navigate your way on the route. In addition, there will be a downloadable GPX for a bike computer and you will get also briefing every day to let you know what to expect and to give you a rough idea of where you are going to be heading that day. You will also be provided with an emergency telephone number to call if you think you have managed to sneak your way off route!
Please note that unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate any additional support vehicles that you may wish to bring along.
What happens on the final evening?
We will celebrate your achievements with a special Gala Dinner. This will be a dinner with drinks in an informal setting to celebrate our success!
Will my bike get damaged?
Our tour operator will take good care when transporting the bikes back from and to London. The bikes are protected with rugs and are packed in well to limit movement whilst in transit. If you want to bring additional foam tubing for the main frame and forks or a bike bag then that’s fine with us. However PLEASE DO NOT BRING A BIKE BOX as these take up quite a bit of room on the trucks. Bike bags are acceptable. Is it advisable that all riders take out bike insurance for the trip.
Is it advisable that riders take out bike insurance for the trip?
Yes, we highly recommend considering dedicated cycle insurance for both you and your bike. We've partnered with Bikmo to offer a discount on bicycle insurance. Find out more here Official Action Medical Research Cycle Insurance
