LIDBA members are hard at work preparing for the 22nd annual charity bike ride hoping to add more to the £820,000 raised to date.

They gathered at The Black Fox inn, in Portsmouth Road, earlier this month to prepare essential rider packs.

Some 1,600 packs are collated and each contains a ride booklet, rider number, bank paying-in-slip (corresponding to the rider number) sponsorship forms and draw tickets.
