The race around town in the colourful hand-built prams has become a regular feature of Carnival Week thanks to the help and hardwork of Graham Rule and his family and friends.
The two lap race for the junior class (for those under 18 years old) commences at 6:15pm, starting and finishing in Parade Square and taking in the Cattle Market, Fire Station, Church Lane and Fore Street.
The senior class (for the 18s and over) is again a two lap sprint starting and finishing in Parade Square, crossing the main road, and including pit stops at the Town's various hostelries!
Entry forms are available from Fran's Pantry and Penhaligon's, and must be returned there by 3pm on Tuesday 13th July 2010.
The rules are simple: teams must consist of four people maximum, and the prams must have a minimum of four wheels. Marshals (generally Rotarians) will be present at all drink stations and are empowered to disqualify any competitor deemed to have consumed excess alcohol.
