The annual Bangalow Billycart Derby once again exploded into life on Sunday.
Scores of racing hopefuls young and old turned up to tackle the famous Bangalow hill in carefully crafted billycarts built for speed.
There were races for everyone – boys and girls from five years of age through to ‘opens’ and celebrity races.
Billycart categories ranged from traditional, home grown, professional and novelty where locals let their imaginations runs wild.
All the family favourites were on again, including the lunch time parade, the Pit Stop Fair at the Bangalow Primary School, circus displays and musicians entertaining the crowd throughout the day.
