A NORTH Yorkshire pensioner will do a lone sponsored cycle ride on Sunday from Selby to York and back in memory of her former neighbour.
Brenda Lawton, 68, has been completing the ride for many years having first cycled the course with Bill Taylor before his death.
Since he died Brenda, from Barlby, has organised a ride each year near his birthday on August 1 and members of his family and friends have joined in.
Since it started the ride has raised thousands of pounds for the MS Society, a charity close to Brenda’s heart as her late husband, Eric, suffered with the illness.
Brenda said: “I will be doing the ride in Bill’s memory. He was a good neighbour and friend to many in Selby.”
