Six Brecon residents have completed a 200-mile cycle and raised more than £3,500 for good causes in the process.

Mike Cornish, Craig Younger, Bryony Hope, Gaz Marshall, Deri Williams and Ian Griffiths cycled from Brecon Rugby Club to Clovelly, on the north Devon coast.

The team undertook the challenge to raise funds for The DPJ Foundation and Clovelly Lifeboat Station.

So far their efforts have raised around £3,600.

Speaking about the ride, team member Ian Griffiths said: "Riding across the old Severn Bridge was thrilling - something only ever done once in a lifetime. Stopping for photos at the highest point was fantastic - the vibration of the traffic passing by felt like you were on a fairground ride.

"North Devon was more hills than expected and descending into Clovelly at the end was the first time ever I have had to dismount a bike to go downhill, very steep at 25 degrees!"

Plans are already being made for next year's event, which will be based in Wales.

The team plans to visit all 11 founder member clubs of the Welsh Rugby Union - Bangor, Lampeter, Llandovery, Llandeilo, Llanelli, Swansea, Cardiff, Newport, Pontypool, Merthyr and Brecon - in that order.

This will be around 270 miles and will be in aid of Prostate Cancer Wales and The DPJ Foundation.

You can still donate to their JustGiving page until the end of this month.
