A major charity cycle event will descend on Arran again this weekend.
The Arran Sportive, which raises funds for Ocean Youth Trust Scotland, is now in its third year and more than 140 cyclists have signed up this year.
The event is being held today (Saturday) with its base at the Ormidale Pavilion in Brodick with a 9am start. Residents and visitors should be aware that the island roads will be particularly busy with cyclists.
