94 mile Charity Bike Ride to be Planned

Hi All

I hope that I can ask for all of your help in my goal for 2015!!

I sadly lost my grandad earlier this year and in his memory I would like to raise money for a charity close to all of our hearts by completing a 94 mile round trip to celebrate his many wonderful years on this Earth!

In his memory, we have launched a fund to build a classroom for the Africa UK community in the Ugandan village of Kyajubira. Having already fund-raised in 2014 to build a Library and an S5 classroom (our lower 6th form), our aim now is to complete the school education infrastructure by building an S6 (our upper 6th form). It will be named the 'Norman Foston Classroom S6'.

We need to raise £5,000 to build this classroom and we are already well on target.

My love of cycling started up last year when I went out in February, bought a road bike and completed my dream of cycling London to Brighton. Since then, I have got the 'bug' and losing my grandad this year who was so full of life left me wanting to not only push my own limits within cycling but also help create something that will be in his memory!

On that basis, I am trying to plan a 94 mile bike ride in and around Kent. I live near Larkfield (near Maidstone) so would like it to start here and if possible be in a loop and end back where I started.

So, my pledge to you all is firstly, how I go about starting to plan this ride so I am safe and that the route picked means I can complete the ride in one piece!!

Any advice, routes, suggested avenues are all welcomed so please please get in touch if you can help me plan this epic journey!!

Thanks in advance

For me I find http://ridewithgps.com/ really usefull for planning

free to join -
you can search routes in your area to get Inspiration
quick search of mainstone gave up 2000+ rides

You can see how big those hills will be

How far the ride will be - can make small adjustments to hit the '94 'mark

sample route = http://ridewithgps.com/users/8760/routes

Others on here will suggest other sites as just as usefull .
