Land's End to John O'Groats by bike for Macmillan

Hi all, I'm a long-time lurker who has finally delurked in order to seek advice! My husband, Dad, and 2 brothers are riding LEJOG in 29 days (eek) in order to raise funds for Macmillan and in memory of my Mum who died last year. I think we've covered most bases in terms of seeking sponsorship: emailing all contacts, free business cards with details on (ain't Vistaprint fab?!), justgiving site, facebook fan page (not sure how this works, a friend set it up), blog, paper sponsor forms. Anyone else got tips on how to maximise what they raise? If Macmillan is a cause close to your heart and you have any cash to spare then please consider sponsoring them. I'm so proud of them for doing this and I want to make it as worthwhile in terms of getting sponsorship as possible.

Thanks all.
