I attended my Off Road session yesterday this was a gift from my son in law, two other gentlemen attended John and Chris.Our session was taken by Adam who turned up in an Old School Land Rover 110 which is exactly the type off vehicle i hoped we would be using.Adam gave us an initial briefing and information regarding the vehicles capability.Adam obviously has a vast knowledge regarding the subject and enjoys what he does .We then commenced our session with all of us taking turns completing various obstacles/sections of the course under Adams instructions,Adam made me fell very comfortable completing these obstacles with his easy going manner and comprehensive instructions. I was hoping for more mud water etc,however due to time of year and weather it was very dry,i thought this would lessen my enjoyment of the event,it didn't ,if anything as Adam explained it meant we could complete more of the course. All in all i had a fantastic morning and will probably book to go again,and would certainly recommend it to friends.
