Olympic champion Alistair Brownlee took part in his first Oxenhope Straw Race, dressed as US President Donald Trump.
The former triathlete, from Dewsbury, was among 600 participants in fancy dress who raced each other between six pubs whilst carrying a bale of straw on Sunday.
According to the rules, participants must stop at five pubs along the route - The Waggon and Horses, The Bay Horse, the former "Idiot Hut" social club, The Lamb, and the former Shoulder of Mutton - downing a pint at each before making the final uphill push to the finish at the Dog and Gun.
Competitors vie for more than just quick times, with prizes handed out for both the fastest teams and the most creative costumes.
