I believe a roller cracked a manhole cover one year so they don't allow them. Lee

Its not particularly a roller thing Ant, more that some busybody involved with the council took a dislike to steel wheels and this has perpetuated. I believe that steel wheeled vehicles were allowed on the show field, but not the town centre.

And as for a roller cracking a manhole cover, I wonder how the tarmac either side was placed..........
