PEDAL power and a head for heights have helped a Crick-lade man raise £200 for Child-ren in Need.
Bob Sanders took two days to cycle from his home to the foot of Mount Snowdon in north Wales.
The 51-year-old then climbed the 3,559ft mountain in seven hours.
And Mr Sanders, who works for the traffic management department at Swindon Council, accomplished the feat with Children in Need mascot Pudsey Bear tucked in his rucksack.
In spite of having no-one but Pudsey for company, Mr Sanders said he had enjoyed his fundraising adventure.
He said: "There was stormy weather on the second day of cycling but Pudsey was kept safe and sound in his waterproofs."
Mr Sanders raised the money expected to total about £200 after being sponsored by colleagues.
He said: "The money is still coming in and I think the total is around the £200 mark."
