Keen cyclist Chris Merrien will be following the Via Francigena, which will take him 1,200 miles through France, Switzerland and Italy on an ancient pilgrimage route.

The month-long venture is being undertaken on behalf of Comic Relief, which funds life-changing projects and supports families and individuals in this country and all around the world.
