Fundraising, Readership and Followers

Ok so now that I’m under way with the fundraising and preparation for not only the London to Windsor but the longer term goals as well it started me thinking. In order to achieve the goal of London to Paris and Paris to Geneva I need to meet a minimum sponsorship target to confirm my place. Obviously this will take some working towards and so I thought perhaps it was time to set a more ambitious total for the forthcoming London to Windsor.

At the moment I've set a target of just £200 and thanks to an incredibly generous Donation from @BillyGottaJob (Thank you again, much appreciated) we are now under way and adding in an offline donation I'm almost up to 25% of my target in the first week. Obviously I know that not every week will increase the Donations by that much but every little helps. It's for that reason that I've decided to open the question up to anyone who happens to read this blog.

My question to all of you who might happen to be reading, what do you think my Fundraising total should be? Any serious suggestions will be considered and the amount will be adjusted to take it into account. In addition I'd also be very grateful for any fundraising suggestions anybody might have.

Finally I also need to try and attract more people to reading this blog and also following me on Twitter if I am to reach the minimum levels set out for the London to Paris and Paris to Geneva and that is where you come in, If you can tell even one person or know of any way I can reach a wider audience to promote what I'm trying to achieve it would be very much appreciated and will certainly help with reaching the end goals.
