Plus a money pit!
What is a money pit?
A short cut to the side of the course with cash prize vouchers dug into the ground.
All you have to do is ride through the muddy pit, lean down, don’t fall off, and grab a voucher. Stuff it somewhere and claim your cash at the end of the race. Cash vouchers amount vary between 20p and £20! More laps you complete the more times you can go for a grab! More muller you’ll get!
