THE MANIFESTO
- - We laugh in the face of technology
- - We deny the existence of engines, pedals and performance materials
- - We embrace gravity at the expense of all other forms of propulsion
- - We support the use of carts made from recycled, re-claimed and re-used parts
- - The spirit of the event is to purchase as little as possible
- - We celebrate the amateur and the optimistic, where the heroic arrival at the start-line is vastly superior to the time across the finish line
THE RULES (ABRIDGED)
- - Horns are obligatory as are helmets, not necessarily combined, and brakes are strongly recommended
- - The width of the cart must not exceed the width of a standard door
- - The categories are KS1* (4 to 7yrs), KS2 (8 to 11yrs), Women and Men (*KS1 must be accompanied)
