PEOPLE of all ages gathered in Wellington on Sunday to 'cycle against cancer’, raising thousands of pounds for charity in the process.

Cyclists took on one of four routes – ranging from the family orientated 5km cycle ride around Wellington, to a gruelling 100km route for the more experienced cyclists.

A 25km route suited to older children and less experienced riders and a 50km route were the other two options.

The event started and finished at Wellington Rugby Club.

Prior to Sunday, over £30,000 had already been raised for Cancer Research UK.
