230 miles in under 24 hours - Rod completes his big ride

Cyclist and board member Rod Drew completed his marathon 230 mile rides around Dorset - then revealed he has two metal hip joints.


Rod, who was cycling to raise funds for the new exhibition space at Dorchester Arts Centre, pedalled anti-clcockwise round the county through the night, finishing in just two minutes short of 24 hours.


He said the ride had been an amazing experience.


The full story is on the BBC and Dorset Echo websites.
