Legendary children's entertainer Timmy Mallett has praised Dundee's Tay Road Bridge as a "cycling dream" as he passed through the city as part of a bike tour of the UK.
The veteran presenter, 66, is cycling around the entire country and painting landscapes as he goes, having turned his hand to fine art following an illustrious career in telly on shows like Wacaday and Wide Awake Club. He passed through Dundee on Monday, and took time to praise locals for their kindness and hospitality.
He said on social media: "Cycling over the Tay Bridge from Dundee to the kingdom of Fife is one of the great cycling pleasures of Britain. It involves a lift, a brilliant cycle lane, a slope, and one of the longest spans in Scotland....It's a cycling dream."
