A FATHER-and-son team got on their bikes for a good cause and raised nearly £900.

Max Fields and his son John, from Hollywood, took part in the annual North Worcestershire Bikeathon.

Organised by the Bromsgrove and District branch of Leukaemia Research, all the money will go towards helping children with the illness.

Mr Field said: "This is the 10th time we've done the bikeathon and we still had a really enjoyable day.

"It took us just under two hours so we were home in time for lunch and a few beers.

"It's a fantastic cause - there are a lot of children with leukaemia and we want to do our bit to help them."

He added: "As soon as the legs have stopped aching, I'll think about next year's one."
