THE flash of fluorescent yellow jerseys worn by Acorn Dalmatian Bike Riders added colour to the countryside of Gwent last weekend.
The Dally, as it is known, set off in light rain but as riders got in their stride the sun broke through picking out the yellow jerseys worn by the cyclists.
Staged for the tenth year, The Dally supports Newport-based St David's Hospice Care.
Riders in the longest, 58 mile route set off first from Caerleon before being followed by those completing the 37, 24 and 10 mile routes.
Organiser and keen cyclist Dave Rees, who established the event in 2012 with a group of friends, said: "We're delighted to be able to put The Dally on once more after the past 18 months and the restrictions due to the pandemic. The cyclists looked marvellous in their bright yellow ever jerseys."
The Dally has raised some £250,000 for St David's Hospice Care over the years.
