Requires - Office chairs (preferably a lot)
a hill (preferably big and steep) (more preferably a mountain)

Sort of goes like this :

1) You sit on the chairs at the top of the hill / mountain
2) Somebody (prefably a starter) starts the race my making a audible (such shouting go, firing a gun, popping a cork, busting a ballon, farting) or visual (waving a flag, turning on or off a light, jumping up and down) single
3) Chairs with riders on board hurtle to the base of the hill / mountain
4) The first person to reach the bottom / fish line wins
5) taking short cuts (such as falling off the mountain) will lead to disqualifcation.

There will of course be differnt classes.

Begineres can start on the £15 Argos type chair - a nice cheap DIY entry so that you can get used to the technicalityies behind it. Progress on to ones with arm rests, then adjustable hight and finally to the big leather exec chairs with gas suspension
