    Don't worry Marvin, I'm not doing it this year.
    Hope everyone who wants to have a go gets in.

    That's inflated by 29.4% on last year's entry fee :thunbdown:

    Mmmmmm..............for half that price I'd organise a race from my house and even offer FREE bacon butties courtesy of Mrs Mapper afterwards.
