A man from Fulwood has taken on a 100km stationary bike ride in memory of his brother.
Stephen Knott, 69, took on the first of his four intense challenges on 28 May.
The grandad cycled inside the Booths Fulwood store to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

Stephen’s brother Dave died of prostate cancer last year, and he said the money raised for the cause was ‘outstanding.’
He said: “I had lots of support from friends and family. A good friend, Steve Chippendale, assisted me throughout the event. My daughter and her several grandchildren cheered me along also.
“I was blown away by the customers of Booths who contributed by throwing money into a bucket. The total raised on the day was £163.05 for Cancer Research.”
He completed the event in just short of 1 hour and 40 minutes and said he is already training for the next three events which include cycling and kayaking.
He will take on Three Waters and two Rivers kayak challenge, a sea kayak from Barrow to Fleetwood and a triathlon style event.
The third challenge will feature a cycle from Chipping to Halton into a paddle down Halton Rapids to a walk along the Lune Trail Eastbound to Claughton.
