A Commonwealth cycling team has been given new bikes by a Glasgow shop after theirs were found to be unfit for purpose.
Team Malawi arrived from Africa with their cycles, which they intended to use for both the mountain biking and road events.
However, when Neil Bilsland, of independent bike shop Bilsland Cycles, found out that the cycles were in a poor state of repair he offered to step in.
The bikes were fixed as best as he and his staff could manage, but he was still worried about the Malawi team embarrassing themselves or having an accident.
