Will Clark Climbs for Tibet!

On September 29th I'm cycling 900 miles solo through the Alps in aid of the Tibet Culture Trust. I'll be setting off from Nice with a 50 mile ride climbing to 4,500 ft. On the second day I'll climb the Cime de la Bonette at 9,200 feet.
I have a schedule of 13 days, but I have more time in case of closed passes / biomechanical failures!
Over the next 2 weeks I'll take in some of the classic climbs including - Col d'Izoard, Sestriere, Telegraphe, Galibier, Alpe D'huez, Glandon, Madeleine, Gt St Bernard, Stelvio pass, Timmelsjoch.
The route takes in roughly 103,000 ft. of climbing, or 7,900 ft. per day with an average of 70 miles per day.
