As the dust [or Hay] settles from the weekend, we want to reach out and ask our community the good, the bad and the ugly.
As you know, we are a VERY small team of volunteers, but our opinion matters.
Have your say. Ask a question. Give some feedback.
We will answer all of the questions and there are a few already [see the comments].
Thank you for your support of @bordonsoapbox

A Small Town. A Big Day. One Hell of a Community.
A day built by the community, for the community, and it showed in every corner of the course, every smile, every soaked sock.
It was more than karts and haybales. It was old friends reconnecting, families sharing the day, neighbours meeting for the first time. It was pure, unfiltered community spirit.
The real heroes? The volunteers, marshals, organisers, drivers, and race teams who gave up hours, days, weeks and months to make today happen.
No ego. Just effort.
The karts were wild and every year it’s getting bigger and better.
Two brilliant comperes held it all together, feeding the energy like pros @stuartpmorrison and Glen Lynch.
The livestream? It only worked! We’ve had messages from people watching all over the UK and even as far as Australia. Madness.
And then there’s you. The crowd. The die-hards. The parents, kids, locals and passers-by who sat, stood, cheered and got absolutely drenched, but never stopped smiling.
Yyou showed up for your town.
We’re just shy of £7,000 raised. That’s huge. But we know there’s more in the tank. Tag a mate. Share the link. Every pound makes a difference, The link is on the website. Every page, bottom right.
We’re still coming down from the high, but here are some more snapshots from team @pistondesign 📸
To every single person who helped, raced, clapped, swept, filmed, donated or just gave this thing their time, thank you.
You are part of the magic behind the madness.
Congrats to the winners, Team Slugs, who were fastest on the day. But let’s be honest, everyone won!
It was epic. It was emotional. It was everything we hoped it would be, and more.

Meet the Voices of BSB25: Stu Morrison & Glen Lynch
Returning from our previous event is our two unforgettable Soapbox comperes: Stu Morrison and Glen Lynch.
Stu Morrison: The Man, the Moustache, the Mic
Once seen, never forgotten, Stu Morrison is a force of personality wrapped in a loud suit and topped with a legendary moustache. Part town crier, part entertainer, and 100% community spirit, Stu is a cornerstone of the Soapbox experience.
From co-presenting Football Focus dressed as Borat, to appearances on Trisha (as Ali G) and Richard & Judy (as “Littler Britain”), Stu’s comedic presence and infectious energy light up the track. Whether interviewing racers, riffing with the crowd, or announcing epic soapbox moments, Stu makes the event feel as good as it looks.
He’s also a business owner, web entrepreneur, designer, and writer, proving that behind the charisma is a serious dedication to community and creativity.
Glen Lynch: The Voice That Moves the Masses
Joining Stu is Glen Lynch, a masterful vocalist, songwriter, and storyteller. Glen’s voice has been compared to rock legends like Roger Daltrey and Steve Marriott, his lyrics painting vivid scenes of everyday life, working-class struggle, and joy.
This marks Glen’s third Soapbox appearance—solidifying him as a fan favourite and an essential part of the BSB family. When he’s not captivating the crowd with witty commentary and on-stage charisma, Glen performs with The Sunset Donkeys, an English-American rock band featuring Chris Constantinou, Preston Heyman, Hal Lindes, and Glen himself. Their debut single ‘Setting It All On Fire’ is now out—and fittingly, so is the track at BSB25!
If you’re racing, spectating, or just soaking in the sunshine and soap, keep your ears open and your phones ready. Stu and Glen are here to guide, entertain, and amplify the heart of the event. Don’t forget to say hi—or better yet, grab a selfie with two of the most iconic voices of the Bordon Soapbox!
#BSB25 | @bordonsoapbox | Let’s race. Let’s laugh. Let’s remember why we’re here.
We are extremely pleased to announce that @kanefmuk will be hosting a breakfast show at @theshedwb from 7:00am at this years @bordonsoapbox 🎵
KaneFM has evolved from a pirate radio station in the 90s to a not-for-profit community radio station, broadcasting to Guildford and the surrounding area on 103.7 FM
Kane FM’s mission is to bring great music that’s not often represented on commercial stations – electronic, hip hop, techno, drum & bass, dub, funk & soul, house, roots & culture, to name some – and put the playlists into the hands of the DJs.
visit www.boardandsoapbox.co.uk/listen to tune in and even if you can’t be there you can still be part of the day!
