Pictures from the 2007 event

The pancakes warming up for their race..

The first race gets going

A slight hiccup, but quickly picked up, going on to win

The second prize..

The older children race round the corner

Some kind of pancake moustache, or perhaps an attempt at eating in one mouthfull?

The grown ups line up

Pancake hats, definitely a "pancakes as clothes" theme here

The only action shot I got - or perhaps Ali is going with the theme and wearing pancake as earring?

The freestyle anyone-go-for-it race
