Training
In order to participate, students are required to submit a written application, participate in fitness testing, carry out research and homework tasks, further fitness testing and training, extensive Human Powered Vehicle training and learn the mechanics of building and construction of the vehicles. The whole process begins early in the year and concludes at the Energy Breakthrough event in November.
