Hundreds turned out for the first cycling race to be held in the heart of Barnsley for 20 years. The Barnsley Criterium took place on June 24 and marked the start of the town's Tour de France Grand Depart celebrations. It was brought back to the streets of Barnsley by the town's charity cycling squad Team Cystic Fibrosis and provided spectators with an evening of fast-paced, exciting closed circuit racing around a 1.45km route starting and finishing at the town hall.

We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
