Actor Peter Armitage with Macmillan fundraising manager Hayley Cooke and volunteer Anne Pike at the Colin Appleyard Motorcycles event
Former Coronation Street actor Peter Armitage (pictured with fundraising manager Hayley Cooke) and champion trials rider Phil Disney revved their engines for a through-the-night charity bike ride for Macmillan Cancer Support.
They took turns on a Yamaha Vity 125cc scooter as part of a 24-hour charity “commut-a-thon”.
Mr Armitage, who played Bill Webster, and Mr Disney were the guests of Colin Appleyard Motorcycles who turned out to support the charity event at the Keighley showroom.
In addition to money raised on the day, which included £340 from a street collection in Keighley town centre, the company is raffling the Yamaha Vity scooter. The draw will be on September 14.
