Scores of Santas will be roaring across the Island today, all in the name of charity.

The event - brought to you by Plan.com will see hundreds of Father Christmases take to the roads to raise funds for Rebecca House.

Bikers dress up as well as giving their bike a festive makeover before completing a lap around the Island and finishing at Rebecca House Children's Hospice.

Bikers will meet at the Sea Terminal at 11am before setting off at 12pm.

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