CYCLISTS across Greater Manchester are being asked to get on their bikes and take part in a month-long challenge this September.

Transport for Greater Manchester (TFGM) is appealing for participants for its Better By Cycle Challenge, which aims to get more people travelling by bike.

It is open to everyone who lives and works in the region, and rewards people depending on how many cycling journeys they make between September 1 and 30 with offers and tokens. For more information, visit betterbycycle challenge.com
