Aw b**ger, only just saw this, would have gone to take a look but already agreed to go somewhere else...

Is this an annual event?

D'oh!

And more importantly, can anyone enter? I've been to Hoghton Tower before on the bike and was thinking at the time that the driveway looked like a perfect drag strip!

He's not lying. I've got a picture of him there.



Here he is, just how do you ride a bike when you have no arms?

And another one down the, err, driveway..

Second thoughts, I don't even know if this is the same place. But any excuse to post a pic of the armless bike rider

Yep that's the place
As for who can enter, I think it's pretty much anyone. There's been someone running an SV in it for a few years now
