Oh that reminds me Anne - I remember watching some youtube videos on the 'redbull' soapbox challenge events and thinking what a fun think it would be to make a soapbox cart...



We have an excellent hill in the glen with bends in that would probably be far too dangerous to try on! but if it did work it might be an excellent community event...
