The town of Heeswijk-Dinther in the Netherlands will host a festival built around a 24-hour endurance race for Solex mopeds from August 27-30. Some 250 teams will ride around the clock in support of a children's cancer charity. The event also features Brascross, a competition judging creativity over speed for modified vehicles, and a new balance-bike race open to riders as young as 1.5 years old.

It's a different flavor from mud and dirt racing, but 24 hours straight gets my blood pumping too. Brascross, judging modified vehicles on originality, sounds like a lot of fun. Prizing originality over raw speed feels close to the spirit of grassroots racing.

A balance-bike race for 1.5-year-olds is such a creative idea.

250 teams sounds like a logistical nightmare to run.

A 24-hour Solex endurance race sounds like an absolute blast.

Being tied to charity makes it even more appealing.
