Charity Cycle Ride

Braintree to Guajar-Fondon

1350 miles

Depart 22nd July, 2012

 

I have decided to hop on my bike to challenge myself and to raise some money for charity. I’m aiming to cycle my way through England, France and Spain in a little under three weeks, being self sufficient. I’m aiming to cycle up to 100 miles a day carrying my own gear and will be camping and using cheap hotels at night.

Through sponsorship I’m aiming to raise into 5 figures for the charities and gain sponsorship for equipment, places to stay etc. from both individuals as well as corporate sponsorship. Any ideas, offers or potential contacts you have that would help with this would be great, please comment below with your suggestions and offers.

I am currently on a training schedule to raise my fitness to an appropriate level and will begin to post some of my training rides and so on for you to see where I am up to in that.

There are lots more details to come including route maps, sponsorship details, charity details, other ways to support etc. etc.

Looking forward to sharing this journey with you.
