It's five hours of hard riding with nothing more than a burger and the chance of a modest prize for the winner, but there's a good endearingly amateurish family-friendly vibe and nobody takes it too seriously.</p> <p>It's on this Sunday (9th May) and they're always looking to grow, so check it out.</p> <p>(PS I have no connection to the organisers other than I've been participating for probably 10 years now). </p>
