Staff at Ridings Shopping Centre get on their bikes in run up to Tour De France Yorkshire
The team will cycle 118 miles – the equivalent of the first leg of the race – on indoor exercise bikes on Friday and Saturday July 4 and 5.
Victoria Clapham, the centre’s marketing manager, said: “With the Tour De France coming to Yorkshire for the first time, we wanted to mark this very special occasion by hosting a charitable stunt in line with the race.

Shoppers can donate before the event by visiting customer services on the upper mall or during the challenge where collection buckets will be available.
