been around with them loads in the last year. Money well spent, the terrain is unlike any pay and play site, its off roading in the woods 
. Colin and Bill will look after you, they meet at the pine tree's cafe so you can get a full English to boot 
When you looking at going?

The Freelander would have struggled, the frontera will fair better. The bigger tyres and a suspension lift will pay dividends and it will do even more.
They will split into two groups with one more experienced than the other, then each group runs routes made up on the day to take the group and weather etc into consideration. have a read up in the Midlands section, theres a few.
There will be an easier route around every section, so its no face lost or time lost to the group if you dont want to tackle a few bits ( there are some classic slopes)

Pay on day, its a long day. Think its 9:30 start and finish about 4:30 there a pint in Rugely after if your up for it.
CB's certainly help as you can talk around the course, lots of stops to natter if not.. Take pack lunch, lots to drink.
On a nice day its stunning, on a wet day its muddy either way good day, just a shame the price has gone up so much. Havent been in a few months, busy busy busy. Will see what July has in store, may book up.
