Off road driving experience day
 
Activity superstore - off road driving taster session,

About your Experience
Head for the hills across some rough, tough terrain in a hardy 4x4 drive vehicle. Get behind the wheel and experience the fun, exhilaration and sheer adventure of off road driving. Mud, holes, gullies, steep slopes - the most rugged terrain can be crossed if you are up for the challenge.
Your session begins with an introductory briefing on off roading techniques, together with an explanation of four wheel drive systems. The instructor will carry out a demonstration drive, and then it's time for you to take turns at the wheel! The time spent behind the wheel by each participant varies between each location, and when you are in a group and not driving you will stay in the vehicle as a passenger.

The person driving the car will be required to sign a disclaimer accepting liability in the event of damage to the vehicle. The driver will be given an option to purchase damage waiver cover when booking to minimise their financial exposure should there be an accident. Drivers are under no obligation to purchase this optional waiver. Full details are available at the time of booking.

Never had any of that bolax on my Land Rover experience weekend course a few years ago, me and the Mrs 2 full days sharing a 110 between us, cracking weekend, it was about £600 plus accommodation for the pair of us though, but you get a recognised certificate afterwards.

I'm sure it is as it's a course that emergency services and electricity pylon workers go on as well as the reason we went on it, which was for running 4x4 tours, we took the winching / recovery day too and learned how to cross ditches and setting up strops and ropes etc to reduce the load, very interesting and good fun, it's stood me in good stead out here when I've managed to get myself into some tricky situations, one when I drove into a 2 foot deep tractor rutted bog in the woods that went on for 100 metres and I had no choice but to go for it, no way I'd have known what to do if I'd not been on that course, then I had to turn around and do it again as the road ran out, got the adrenalin pumping that day.:lol1:
