Here are some wonderful pictures of Thursday’s cycling races in Oldham town centre. They have been sent in to Saddleworth News by Tim and Amanda Simpson of Tim Simpson Photography, who are based in Uppermill where they aim to open a studio and gallery soon.

The image above shows the three Saddleworth Clarion Cycling Club riders, Richard Tayles, Mike Gradwell, and Tim Mitchell, who took the top three places in the club race. Some of the other photos capture professional riders taking part in the other events, held on the town’s streets as part of the Halfords Tour Series.
