HGV Driving Experiences

[MagicalTrevor]

I've found a couple of threads on this but not really what I'm after.

Basically, my old man would love to have a drive of a HGV so we're looking for some sort of experience day for a Christmas present. All I can find is one where he gets 15-20mins driving which is hardly worth it.

Has anybody got any suggestions where he can have a drive round in a HGV?. Basically just to see how difficult it is!

Cheers

Thanks guys, that's given me a couple more leads

Can't think of the guys name sorry.

SimonSpider's the chap - and this is his site; http://www.6thgearexperience.com/home

That's one of the ones that I'd found previously. I might PM him and see if he can do a longer session as 15mins isn't long enough.

If this is to be done on public roads then he will need either the licence or the correct provisional

Thanks R0G, it's purely 'off road' I'm looking for as he has no intention of getting a license for it.

In conclusion to this thread, I got in touch with SimonSpider and he's arranged for a 30min (ish) session instead of their usual 15min session. All done and dusted

Thanks for the help
