Just a whisker from helmet record
Hundreds of people turned out for the biggest display of 999 emergency services of the year at Clumber Park at the weekend.
Event organiser Paul Vasper said: “Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of all those involved, we were just 30 people away from breaking the world record for the largest gathering of people wearing helmets, which currently stands at 1,263.
