quad biking experience from activity superstore

This quad bike activity is not for the feint hearted. If you can see yourself riding a quad bike through chicanes, climbs and bomb holes then this is the perfect experience activity for you. You will encounter a wide variety of obstacles and terrains on an agility circuit where controlling a bike on its brakes down a slippery slope, whilst turning a corner and splashing though muddy water is commonplace.

Once you arrive at Markyate you will be enrolled on a safety talk which will go through all the do’s and don’ts and introduce you to the quad bike machines. Initially, you will ride around a flat course so you can familiarise yourself with your quad bike and build up your confidence before being unleashed on the agility circuit. Usually after a couple of laps on the practice circuit, your instructor will indicate that you are ready to hit the agility track and this is where the fun really starts.

Drive a quad bike around a tough track and learn the techniques to control these great fun machines. Your instructor will place obstacles for you to tackle on the training course, before you will progress to a more challenging circuit where you will be able to put your newly gained handling skills into practice. Depending on the choice of course you will even be able to tackle a woodland environment.

Your quad bike experience will start with a mandatory safety talk. This will take you through the dos and don’ts all and provide equipment instruction and a safety briefing. Once the formalities are over, you will get to spend some time racing around the rugged circuit tracks and, dependent on venue, you could head off for some exhilarating offroad quad biking!

quad biking experience from red letter days

Quad biking over rough terrain at up to 50mph is one of the most exhilarating outdoor experiences that money can buy. You’ll bike across open fields, woodlands, water pools and tackle steep slopes. Tuition will be provided if you’re a bit unsure and there will always be at least two qualified instructors with the group at all times for your own safety.

Once you arrive at your chosen quad biking location you will begin with a very thorough safety briefing, then you will be supplied with your protective clothing and have an introduction to the quad bike itself. The bikes are usually Honda 250ESs which are utility machines with five forward gears operated by electric thumb shift. Or Sportrax 90s which are smaller, sports-tuned quads. You won’t be flung in at the deep end (not yet at least) as you will be given initial training on level ground so you can familiarise yourself with the bike, its controls and gain some confidence. Then you will embark on a quad bike trek covering roughly 10 miles and reaching speeds of up to 50 mph!
