80km ride marks 80 years of the Manx Road Club

Cycling event gets underway at NSC

Cyclists will take on an 80km route to mark 80 years of the Manx Road Club this morning.

It's a social event which will raise money for the James Berry Fund in the process - named after a teenage cyclist who was killed whilst out riding in 2005.

The course starts at the NSC in Douglas and takes in locations such as Ballasalla, Derbyhaven and Ballabeg. 

President of the Manx Road Club Mike Kelly explains more about what the charity does:
