Thousands of people have lined the streets of Leeds to celebrate Yorkshire鈥檚 Olympians and Paralympians. Open top buses toured the city centre and gave the people of Yorkshire a chance to welcome back their Rio heroes.

The county is home to the likes of Hannah Cockroft, the Brownlee brothers and Jessica Ennis.

Triathlete Jonathan Brownlee claimed a silver medal at the Games along with his brother Alistair who won gold.

He told 5 live Drive that he was 鈥渋ncredibly Leeds proud.鈥�

鈥淭o be on an open top bus around the streets of Leeds with all those thousands of people cheering is very special,鈥� he said.

The county brought home 14 Olympic medals out of the overall 67 won by Team GB. If Yorkshire were a country it would have been 14th in the Rio 2016 medal table.
