Hundreds of bikers and cyclists turned up for the traditional pilgrimage this morning to celebrate the feast of Our Lady of Graces.

They converged on Zabbar's main road in a cacophony of horns for a blessing by Archbishop Paul Cremona.

This was the 60th year that the pilgrimage was held. It started when  Pope Pius XII declared Our Lady of Graces the patron of cyclists.

The cyclists left from Rabat and the motorcycles from Mosta.
