As per the title, I've volunteered myself to do a 100-miler to boost our organisation's profile and raise some money in our centenary year. My aim is to ride in all six counties in our Region on 1 July, starting in Norfolk (around Thetford) and ending up at our office in Cambridge (rough map). Loads more background and info on my Virgin Money fundraising page.
I'm behind with both my prep and my fundraising. I had really hoped to have started cycling bits of the proposed route and getting it mapped out more accurately, but injury, work and family commitments have made that impossible. So, the things I'm looking for from the forum are:
Experience of the route: anyone ridden around here? Roads to take/avoid?
Participation/support: anyone fancy doing this with me - all or part - and trying to help get more sponsorship in?
Equipment loan: I have no spare cash but I need some things which will make this a lot easier, particularly if I'm on my own, e.g. a bar bag to stash phone/ camera etc in - ideally with a waterproof map holder on top; portable charger; other things I haven't yet thought of...
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
