Cyclists took to the roads of Dorset this month to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support in the annual Dorset bike ride.

Around £35,000 was raised for the charity and Hendy Toyota Bournemouth was one of the key supporters, providing two vehicles for event organisers and sponsoring jerseys for the event.

Four different routes were available and more than 350 took part in the event which started and ended at Corfe Mullen Recreation Ground.

Hendy Toyota Bournemouth provided a Toyota C-HR for the course director and a Toyota RAV-4 for the event first aider.

"This is an important date in the Hendy calendar and we were delighted to be able to support the bike ride this year," said Danny Ball, Toyota Brand Manager.

Peter Smith-Nicholls, of Macmillan, said: "It was our 33rd event and we were really pleased to get it going.

"Even with just four weeks to get it organised we had over 300 cyclists turn up.

"Thanks to our sponsors who covered the cost of the event, the money we raise will go to help people living with cancer in our area."
