School Project – Gandamak, Afghanistan

Each rider’s minimum fundraising target for this noble cause is £750. 313 Riders are organising this ride to build a school for underprivileged children in Afghanistan, these children currently have no access to education and are forced into child labour and begging hence fundraising is a key aspect to try and make a big difference on the ground. Having a clear fundraising message with reminders from Qur’an/Hadith and sending messages regularly on WhatsApp, becoming active on social media or speaking to family/friends are all key aspects in reaching your target. Please ensure you give time to your fundraising.

Training
Trainings is another key aspect of this challenge as you will be cycling approx 80 miles a day through some challenging elevation and terrain. Training is compulsory, all your rides need to be recorded on strava (via smartphone/Garmin 200) so we can monitor your training. Essential for each rider to purchase a ‘Garmin 200 edge’ (will cost approx £20-£40 online, Facebook marketplace/eBay). The Garmin 200 is a cycling satnav which fixes on to your bike, you can also download your training activity from your Garmin to Strava. New riders welcome providing you dedicate some time to the C2C training plan, for a comprehensive training plan contact 07300100068.
