Background:
On April 1st of each year, IBA UK has been running a special BBG
called, what else but the:
Bun Burner Fools GOLD
Need we say more?
Our UK friends have kept the rules pretty simple, the ride must start
AND end on April 1st and cover 1,500 miles in 24 hours or less.
THAT MEANS THE ENTIRE RIDE MUST TAKE PLACE ON APRIL 1st.
This is a GOLD only program (you are chasing the elusive GOLD - get
it?! - fun!).
In other words, there is no 1,000 miler version, no SILVER version,
just chasing that impossible to find GOLD. Of course, should that
GOLD be beyond reach, you can bail into the normal SaddleSore 1000 or
Bun Burner, or Bun Burner SILVER.
