On Your Marks, Get Set, Mow!
Monday July 30, 2007
http://news.sky.com


And they're off! The annual 12 Hour Lawn Mower Endurance Race kicks off at Brinsbury College, near Pulborough, Sussex. From old-school cylinder mowers to the latest in lawn tractors, the race is open to anyone with a passion for cutting grass.

The British Lawn Mower Racing Association (BLMRA) warns on its website: "If you think it's going to be low-key with a few old mowers trickling round a field, think again! "The 50 or so teams, with three drivers, set up pit garages, with generators, lighting, spare parts, welding kit, pit crew, catering and even gravity refuellers."

Looks like fun, for about an hour - bugger scooting about on one of them for 12 hours!

The video isn't of this event, but it gives an idea what these mad buggers with their contraptions get up to at the weekends!
