James Lammas

On 1st September thirty colleagues from Julius Baer’s UK offices (with representatives from London, Leeds, Manchester, Edinburgh, Belfast and Guernsey) will fly with their bikes to Monaco to start an epic, week long, 900km journey to our Zurich office, arriving from the south, five years after the inaugural ‘Market Cycle’ arrived from London to the north. The route will see them climb over 10 vertical kilometres, with almost 2km in just a few hours when they aim to ascend the infamous Stelvio Pass.

- Over 900 km cycled horizontally and over 10km vertically

1.5 million adults in London struggle to afford to eat every day, 400,000 children are at risk of missing the next meal. Meanwhile, our food industry generates 3 million tonnes of good, edible surplus food each year. The Felix Project is a London-based food redistribution charity set up in 2016 to tackle both issues.
