Help with cycling expedition in france?

Hi,


My friend and I are going to Ghana on a charity expedition next July and we need to raise 拢2300 each.





We came up with the idea of getting sponsored to cycle south through France from Guildford, UK to Portsmouth and then on a ferry to Le Harve / Caen and on to Montblanc / Lyon area.





We will be camping and buying our food as we go. We hope that companies will lend us bikes and equipment seeing as it is for charity.





I wanted to know if this sounded like a viable idea (we are both 16) and if anybody had done a similar sort of trip? and had any advice etc that would be useful? and also what routes other people have done and how long it took??





Thanks in advanced.|||So you want to raise money for a charity trip by getting paid to go on vacation in France?


Good luck with that.|||What charity are you doing this for ?|||I did it.





But not for charity. I did it for myself.





Also, different route than you.





Just do it.
