Cyclists honoured a popular member of a club by supporting him on his final journey.
Tim Bryett (65) had been a member of Spalding Cycling Club for more than 30 years but sadly passed away before Christmas.
A total of 13 club members created a cortège by following the hearse from Surfleet to the crematorium on Monday.
Tribute has been paid to Mr Bryett by club chairman Simon Hare.
He said: “It was important for us to do this as we wanted to honour Tim. He was a great guy.
“He was a popular member, very friendly and helpful to everyone. He was very keen on his bikes and mechanics and would offer help.”
Mr Bryett, who had served in the army, had been a part of the club for many years.
During this time he had held a number of positions in the club but will be best remembered for his role as press officer.
For up to eight years, Mr Bryett would send in reports of races and raised awareness of the club in the local area.
