The annual RITS Day ride-out and family fun day takes place todayt, in memory of Lee Baker and in support of the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance.

Bikes will roll out from Tor Leisure, BA6 9EF, at 10.30am. Sign-in closes at 10am and it's £5 per person to join the ride. Marshals in high-vis will be along the route and may pause traffic for a few minutes to let groups through safely, so expect short delays and give them a bit of patience.

From midday it turns into a full family day at Tor Leisure, running from 12 noon until late.

There's a fun dog show, live music from local bands, kids' entertainment and rides, plenty of food and drink, stalls to browse, plus a raffle and auction. Entry to the fun day is free, with donations welcome for the air ambulance.

Organisers say the event has raised more than £109,000 to date and they're hoping to push that total higher this year.
