      <description><![CDATA[<p><img title="24 Hours of MX World Record Attempt" src="http://www.rapid-moto.com/media/wysiwyg/24hmx/24-header.jpg" alt="24 Hours of MX World Record Attempt" width="700" height="250" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We thought it was about time to introduce the world to our very own Marketing Mastermind and World record hopeful, Paul Oughton.</p>
<p><br />As well as working for us here at Rapid, Paul is about to take on what you might call an 'Out of the box' Challenge.</p>
<p><br />Next week, <strong>10th September 2013</strong>, Paul will be gearing up to take on a <strong>World Record Attempt</strong> in aid of two Charities; <strong>Wings for Life</strong> &amp; the Dorset Based <strong>Weldmar Hospice</strong>.</p>
<p><br />The record being attempted is <strong>24 Hours of Motocross</strong>, starting at 12:00 Mid-day. With many stringent rules, the short version is that he must ride an MX bike around an MX Track for 24 Hours and cover a certain amount of distance. Simples !</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />With great support from Dave Thorpe and his Honda Team, Paul is equipped with all the right gear to last the 24 Hour attempt, including his favorite <a title="Torc1 Racing Enduro MX Grips" href="http://www.rapid-moto.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=%22ENDURO+MX+GRIPS%22" target="_blank"><strong>Torc1 Racing Enduro Grips</strong></a> and <a title="Risk Racing Palm Protectors" href="http://www.rapid-moto.com/risk-racing-palm-protectors-adult.html" target="_blank"><strong>Risk Racing Palm Protectors</strong></a> to help him hold on.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Team Duck Smart will also be present for the attempt to keep everything clean and offer Paul all the Duck Support he needs.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The event is being held at <strong>Rogershill Race Way</strong> down in <strong>Dorset</strong> and everyone is welcome to come and cheer Paul on (He's going to need it!) or even make a donation.</p>
<p><br />In typical fashion of this Jedward Haired Dorset Yocal, he has certainly made a song and dance about the event, with a <strong>50 minute Television Documentary</strong> going out about the attempt and numerous coverage online, in the press and live on radio.</p>
<p><br />Anyway, we can't wait to see him out there and will be helping out on the day, so come on down and see what its all about.</p>
