It is now day 11 for the team of cyclists riding 1,200 miles in memory of Harald Berg to raise money for cancer charities.

Iain Forbes and his team are aiming to raise £100,000 during the gruelling challenge in honour of their friend - who was due to also be cycling but lost his battle with cancer just weeks ago.

The team began their journey in Gothenburg, Sweden - the hometown of Harald - and will end in Theale, UK - his workplace at Quadriga.

Miles completed so far: 279 (446km)
