Four years ago, Billy became a double amputee as a result of a horrendous racing accident.\n\nTo make it to the finish line, Billy will have to walk further than he has ever had to before, kayak for the first time in his life and learn how to cycle again following his crash. But if anyone can do it, Billy can. As a successful racing driver, Billy is already used to pushing the limits of what can be achieved.\n\nEach stage of the journey takes place in a different part of the country, with Billy joined along the way by a host of surprise celebrity supporters.
