Get on your bike

I worked with Cancer Research UK as their official photographer for the fundraising event in Milton Keynes, Get on your bike. This is where members of the public pay a small joining fee and also get sponsers to complete a group bike ride. There such a range of ages and people there taking part in this which was good to see. It was Carol the organisers last year because she had managed to raise £100,000 for Cancer Research UK. An amazing amount! As the photographer, it was my job to capture the atmosphere of the event. It is a family event and many people are excited to be there taking part. The mayor of Milton Keynes was there showing support and there were activities such as a bouncy castle and facepainting there to raise further money. Everyone did very well on the bike ride and it was a really good atmosphere. It was uncertain if the event would carry on with Carol no longer leading it, but thankfully some riders from the day stepped up and are now heading the event.
