Noel said: “This is the fourth year that it has taken place. Stuart came from a well-known Islandmagee family and his death affected quite a few people.”
He indicated that last year 128 cyclists took part raising £2,500.
This year’s proceeds will be donated to Whitehaven Respite Centre in Whitehead.
