Paralympic star Jody Cundy will join Dame Sarah Storey in Endcliffe Park at 11am on Sunday to mark the start of the free annual cycling festival.

Like his Great Britain Cycling Team mate Dame Sarah, Jody started his sporting life in the pool, winning 23 international medals in a 10-year swimming career before switching to cycling in 2006.
