KIDDIE cyclists are gearing up for the national Blue Peter bikeathon, this Sunday.

Town tots will be raising money for Leukaemia Research by saddling up and riding round Sanders Park.

Local organiser Nicole Harris said: "It's a great event and all in a good cause." The fun begins at 11am but mums and dads are reminded to get down in plenty of time so their children can register. The car park at Sanders Park will not be open until 1pm so parents are advised to leave their vehicles in the town parking areas. Packs are still available from Baylis' furniture shop in the High Street or Nicole on 01527 878493, or they can picked up on the day.
