Families across North East Lincolnshire are tolling their cycle bells and riding out in a fundraising effort to support a cancer charity.
Virtual bikeathon
Held annually in May, the charity’s bikeathon is a popular event, usually attracting around 400 people, which sees participants cycling a choice of routes in the Lincolnshire Wolds.
However, due to covid restrictions, this year’s event will see supporters choosing their own routes, of any distance, to complete on any day between May 8 and May 23.
Chair of the Grimsby Branch, Birdie Dawson, said: ‘We really hope that all our great supporters will help us yet again.
“The committee is really sorry not to be able to be with all the cyclists encouraging everyone on the day, but we are with you in spirit!
