A CHEQUE for more than £10,000 has been handed to charity bosses after a hugely successful bike ride.

The Motor Neurone Disease Association (MNDA) received £10,600 at a presentation night at the Dog and Gun pub, in Potto, North Yorkshire.

The money was raised by a 30-mile cycle ride through the North Yorkshire countryside earlier this year.

Peter Thompson, of the MNDA, collected the cheque at an evening attended by many of the riders on Friday
