Over 130 cyclists took part in the Isle of Man Cycling Challenge on the TT Mountain Course on Saturday.

They included a hand cyclist and three velomobiles from as far away as Switzerland.

The Cycling Challenge is the chance to ride one, two or three laps of the TT Mountain Course.

The cyclists this year included Steve Wood, a TT-racer from the 1980s who rode a lap to raise money for the Rob Vine Fund on the Island, and Mark Howard, a hand cyclist who completed the course in a time of 6 hours 1 minute and 27 seconds.
