Whilst I like the route, itinerary, hotels pre-booked etc. I'm kinda baulking at the 'CHARITY' aspect of it, doesn't sit well with the charity effectively paying for your trip (assuming sponsorship total is met)
Or just pay £1,173 yourself to enjoy the experience.

Now, my question, has anyone done this? or organised their own trip of a similar itinerary, ferry over, cycle to Paris and Eurostar back.

Any tips/hints/good advice sites from those that have done something similar, if I wanted to organise a trip myself?

Please......

    just been having a read thru rodgers73 thread on the trip he's planning this year. Dates are no good for me, I need something between 3rd and 10th of August and the route he's chosen is a long one!

    Thanks in advance for any tips
