Friends of Anchor is calling on cyclists to gear up for this year’s Ride the North.

Taking place on August 28 and 29, the event takes in 170 miles of the north-east’s finest scenery.

The general ballot entry has now closed but anyone wishing to support Friends of Anchor will be guaranteed a spot.

All funds raised will directly support cancer and haematology patients in the north-east being invested in the Anchor Unit at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary.

Carly Munro, finance and fundraising coordinator for Friends of Anchor, said: “We’re excited to be one of the affiliated charities for this fantastic event, bringing Ride the North to our calendar of challenge events for the very first time.

“Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist already or you’ve got your sights set on a new goal, we would love to have you involved.”
