Thank you. I've been meaning to contact the local press for ages now, I didn't want to at the start because of the risk of failure but now I'm approaching 100 days left. It will definitely help to promote the cause and could be good to get more local coverage (currently googling contacts info).
I think 10,000km for a year is a great goal as it takes a lot of regular riding to achieve it and it's too large of a amount to have a good summer and get it done. Thanks it's going to get harder in the coming weeks as I will have 2 dogs to fully look after too so this will remove by 40minutes of chill time after dinner before bed..

Donated just now. This is a great cause and I hope you make your target. Have you contacted press at all as I’m sure they would be interested, whether locally or nationally, and it would no doubt promote your cause further. The Cycling Podcast sometimes cover these kinds of things so it might be worth reaching out to them as they have a pretty huge audience by now. Apologies if you’ve already discussed this.
As an aside, I’d set myself a year target of 10,000km and I’m currently at 9,750 so I should hit 10k by the end of this week, and 13,000 by the end of the year. The idea of doing basically triple that around a full-time job and all sorts of other commitments is mind boggling. I salute you
