Quote from JO53PHS :Well the race was today. In some ways it was epic fail, and in other ways, epic win. I got pelted uber hard in the face by a water bomb, just before the start (it literally came from nowhere). I wiped my face on my sleeve to get the water off, and then my shirt was covered in blood. So I had an uber nose bleed (blood everywhere), which resulted in me missing the parade lap, and about 3-4 laps of the race . Although I did have a chance to see the pram zooming past at full tilt, light flashing and siren going... it actually looked epic My dad was doing some filming, and has the water bomb hit on video... but it was in the corner of the shot, and he was far away enough that the video would have to have been in HD (damn Sony releasing an HD model of my video camera only 2 weeks after spending £700 on an SD one ) to see what happened. I joined the group after about 4 laps, and started pushing it. It lasted pretty well, and even held someone who was probably about 10 stone or more . What I am most pleased about though, is that the light didn't fill up with water, the Pram didn't get sabotaged, £200 worth of battery pack didn't get ruined, and the Pram is still looks as good as it did before the race. You should have seen the other groups' prams... The wooden front roller on the combined harvester snapped, one person abandoned their pram and used it to throw into the path of other prams and one pram, made of plastic tubing and cardboard, just totally disintegrated (they carried it over the finish line in bits ). Video?
