A HARROGATE engineer is celebrating after he broke a round the world cycling record by nearly two weeks.

Mike Hall travelled 24,900 miles, 18,000 miles on a bike, on his mammoth ride which started on February 18.

He was competing in the World Cycle Race to raise money for the Newborns Vietnam charity.

He was greeted by 50 supporters when he returned to the start line after 92 days in the saddle.

He averaged nearly 200 miles a day.
