CYCLISTS are gearing up for a weekend of fundraising fun.
The Big Bikeathon, in aid of Leukaemia Research Fund, takes place in South Park, Darlington, on Sunday, from 10.30am to 11.30am.
Cyclists will join a leisurely ride around the park and there will be entertainment from the Bread and Butter Theatre Company, as well as activities for children and music, throughout the event.
Cyclists are welcome on the day, but Darlington Borough Council is advising people to arrive early.
The Big Bikeathon will be followed at noon by the park's family fun day, featuring a bouncy castle, face painting, street theatre, balloon modelling, crafts and a climbing wall.
Musical entertainment will be provided by the Junk Orchestra and the Middlesbrough Jazz and Blues Orchestra.
