ANDOVER's cycling festival returned last weekend, with a variety of different events.
The festival, in partnership with Andover Vision, Hampshire County Council and event sponsors Stannah, AddVenture-Leisure and Halo Sports aimed to increase activity and participation for Andover residents and local communities.
The under 12s children’s event began on Sunday, July 30, at 10am, on a closed barrier circuit in the High Street.

The festival was also taking place in association with the charity Inspired Living, a branch of Cancer Research UK and a donation will be made to Inspired Living.
A sum of £500 was raised for charity by Test Valley Borough Council.
Youngsters pedalled around the circuit for as many laps as they wanted, showing off their impressive cycling skills as they zoomed about.
Participation medals were presented at the end of their ride.
