Araucaria Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 A group of FANYs (members of the Princess Royal's Volunteer Corps) are this week doing a 638 km cycle ride through the Auvergne and points north to commemorate Nancy Wake's 1944 epic cycle ride through occupied France. Nancy was a celebrated female member of the wartime SOE. She herself died only a few years ago, aged 99, and the ride is to raise funds for FANY.Their (and Nancy's) ride started in the extreme south of the Cantal, at St Santin.Their are more details of Nancy and the Ride for Nancy here, and if anyone would like to make a donation this is the address.
