'Santa's on a bike' returns to the Island next month.

The charity event - sponsored by Plan.com will see hundreds of Father Christmases take to the Island's roads on Saturday, December 11.

Bikers are invited to dress up, give their bikes a festive makeover and meet at the Sea Terminal at 11am before setting off at 12pm.

The Santas will then complete a lap around the Island, before finishing at Rebecca House Children's Hospice.

Last year, the event raised £35,000 for charity Rebecca House.
