Hi All

I'm looking to do something for my birthday in the Midlands area with approx 10-15 people, something outdoors like quad biking, off road karting, go-karting etc. Does anyone have experience of a GOOD place to go, somewhere you get your monies worth. If its quad bikes you're going to suggest then preferably the engine needs to be over 125cc

Answers on a post card - thanks!

possibly try langar karting as they have an off road race type buggy thing, or there is also another one just off the A614 on the way to sherwood forest but not sure of the name of it, you could also try a place called (i think, the adrenalin jungle, but that might just be paint balling)

Langar karting is owned by www.one4allgroup.com who also offer paintball at some woodland to the south of Nottingham. They specialise in doing split event days - karting/buggies morning, paintball afternoon etc. Very popular and when ever I see people returning to their cars after a paintball session they always look very happy! wink

If you ONLY want Quads there's a good place in Bromsgrove / Worcester a quick google would find it.

March Hare is the same way and they do go karts, shooting, archery etc

We went to Lockwell Hill to fill some time on a mates stag day between tank driving and karting. Great fun, have a word with the instructor though if you're all of high ability so he knows he can charge off and not have to wait around for stragglers. They managed to fit us in with an hours notice but were pretty busy on all other activities
