Loose spoke temporarily halts long distance charity cycle ride from Gdansk to The Gellions pub in Inverness for the Ukrainian appeal
An Inverness long-distance cyclist has taken a rest day so that his bike can be repaired.
Alasdair Fraser is currently hoping to cycle the 1000-mile route between Gdansk in Poland and The Gellions pub in Inverness in aid of the Ukrainian appeal.
By the end of Monday he had almost reached the German border and had stopped in Świnoujście.
He has today taken a second rest day so the repair can be completed before heading into Germany tomorrow.
Speaking this morning he said: "I've had to take a second day off bike to get a repair done.
"I discovered a loose spoke this morning and I'm told they can quickly start to go when that happens."
He said he was aiming to cover some big distances across Germany over the next three days.
So far he has raised £1333 of his £1500 target.
