The event is open to a wide range of riders and abilities, with the options of a 100 mile epic; 66 mile standard and 44 mile fun route.

The New Forest 100 Sportive is set against the stunning backdrop of the New Forest National Park. The course sweeps through the quiet leafy country roads, taking in some challenging but short hills and breathtaking views. With typical speed limits of 20mph and very few cars, you will be able to enjoy the spectacular scenery in peace.

There is also an event on Sunday.

If you want to take part in this event and still be part of The Unstoppables team, here’s how you can:

2. Let us know you’re entered and that you’d like to fundraise for us
We’ll send you a fundraising pack including sponsor forms, a t-shirt, and a guide to all the ways we can support your training and fundraising

3. Set up an online fundraising page for us – it’s the best way to fundraise!

4. Train hard, fundraise hard and be unstoppable!

A great way to boost your fundraising if you're doing a sponsored event is to raise money online.

Setting up an online giving page with JustGiving or Virgin Money Giving is a great way to raise money, enabling people to sponsor you really easily. All you need to do is visit the site, select Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research as your charity and then create your page. You can then personalise it with photos and messages and send the link to everyone you know.

Use social networking websites

A great way to increase awareness of your event is to add details to your social networking site; be it Facebook, Twitter or MySpace. It's even possible now to link these sites directly to your online giving page, making it even simpler for people to donate. Another way to inspire people, and raise awareness, is to blog about how your preparation is going. If people see the amount of time you're committing, and why you're doing your event, then they'll be more likely to dig deep!

Email your family and friends

Target your most generous supporters first. People tend to match the amounts already listed on the page.

Be persistent

Try re-sending the link to your page one week before the event to get some last minute sponsors. Then send it one more time once you've done the event - it's never too late!

Raise money while you shop

If you shop online, you can raise money for us simply by signing up with easyfundraising. Visit your favourite online retailers through this site and they will donate a percentage of your purchase to us at no extra cost to you!
