An 81-year-old day chaplain has completed his 400-mile cycle ride across the UK in aid of Ely Cathedral.

The Rev Dr Clifford Owen, a retired Church of England minister, arrived in the city on Saturday May 4 for a well-deserved lunch at the Almonry.

He then completed his journey to Lowestoft on Sunday May 5. 

An Ely Cathedral spokesperson said: "You can still show your support for his amazing achievement via his Just Giving page: www.justgiving.com/page/clifford-owen."

The Reverend's latest cycle comes after he biked from Land's End to John O'Groats in 2023.

He built his bicycle himself, starting with a frame he found in a skip.

He then donated all money raised to All Saints Church in Hartford, Huntingdonshire.
