What do a pink gorilla, a pink Spider Man and a pink Power Ranger have in common?
The answer: They’re all costumes in the running to be worn by Carl Biggs, a cyclist from Lincoln, when he rides coast to coast for charity.
People can vote on which costume they want Carl to wear, among other outfits, by heading to his Facebook charity page and “liking” the picture of the costume that they want him to wear.
The costume with the most likes is the one that Carl will wear for 24 hours as he cycles 140 miles from Whitehaven to Tynermouth on September 12 to raise money for Cancer Research UK.
So far, Carl has raised £310 towards his £1,000 target, and further donations can be made on his Just Giving page.
