SERIOUS cyclists and those who just dust their bikes off on a weekend can sign up for a charity challenge.

People can now sign up for the Vion Yorkshire Wolds Cycle Challenge next summer, which raises money for Ryedale Special Families.

The route covers 146 miles over two days, July 14 and 15, and will travel along the signposted Yorkshire Wolds cycle route.

The event will start and finish at Norton College, with an overnight camp and barbecue at Hutton Cranswick Sports Association playing fields.

This year’s cycle challenge raised more than £9,000 for the charity, which offers support to more than 400 families with disabled children.

Entry fees are £25 which includes luggage transfer to and from the campsite and campsite food.
