FIT Sidmouth and Ottery St Mary fundraisers will get on their bikes to raise cash for Comic Relief next Friday.

A Red Nose Day exercise bike marathon will take place at both towns' leisure centres on March 13 and organisers are on the lookout for participants.

A Leisure East Devon Spokesman said: "The idea is to keep a studio bike going constantly at each of the centres between specified times- it will be a real physical challenge.

"Lots of staff and centre members have already signed up to take part but we're still looking for volunteers- whether you think you can manage five minutes or 55 minutes we would love to hear from you."

To take part contact Sidmouth Leisure Centre on (01395) 577679 or Ottery St Mary Leisure Centre on (01404) 814317.
