Despite a yellow weather warning, 90 cyclists took part in the recent Builth Bike Bash.

Organisers had feared the rain would keep people away, but the event went ahead as planned.

This year's target distance was the total distance covered in the 2024 Olympic and Para-Olympic games, which was 1,083 miles over 339 events.

The cyclists and scooters managed to complete a total of 937 miles, which was 86 per cent of their target.

Organiser Chris Probert said: "We won’t be beaten and will have a second attempt at that target again next year."

The first hour of the event is always reserved for less experienced riders.

This year, 39 children took part, one as young as two years old.

There were several balance bikes and a few scooters doing laps, as well as a good range of bicycles.

At midday, the longer one-mile course was opened for the more serious cyclists.

The oldest participant this year was a 76 years old.

The furthest distance ridden on the day was 38 miles, by Meuryn Rees, a keen cyclist who rides for the local Bulls Club.

Cycle-tec, the local Builth bike shop, offered free bike checks and minor repairs all day.

Owner Paige Rowland said she was "really glad to be able to attend and had been busy all day, mostly adjusting brakes & gears and pumping tyres!"
