People are being urged to watch out for cyclists this Sunday, July 3, as riders take to the Dorset lanes to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support in the annual Macmillan Dorset Bike Ride.
Cyclists will leave Corfe Mullen Recreation Ground between 8am and 10am and head towards Wimborne, and then return throughout the day via Lytchett Matravers.
Motorists are asked to be particularly vigilant as cyclists cross the main roads especially at Red Post and the A350 at Lytchett Matravers.
This year’s ride will once again offer a choice of four distances of 38, 48, 63 and 100 miles for cyclists to choose from, taking cyclists along the Stour Valley, Winterbourne Valley and to some famous Dorset landmarks such as Bulbarrow Hill and Milton Abbas.
Thanks to sponsors Sunseeker International and support from Primera Sports, the Hendy Group and Coles Miller Solicitors all the money raised and donated by the cyclists can go directly to help support people living with cancer.
Cyclists can still enter the ride on the day.
