Sometimes they take you onto the highway to demonstrate the on-road ability of the car too. At Dunkeld, if you opt to upgrade to the full day then you have to drive about 6 miles on the public road to get from their base at Highland Offroad where they do the school stuff to the Atholl Estates where they have their fun/ play areas How can carbon have a footprint, it has no feet?

The Rockingham site requires no more than 6 points so you would get away with 3 ( I hope so anyway ) |

It dont matter what name the bike frame has on it they are all made in Korea or China anyway. Most of the equipment mounted on todays bikes are also made in China or Japan so the only thing that sounds familer is the marketing companies name like Claud Butlar, Orange etc who are just importing and selling the bikes. There may be one or two companies in the UK screwing the bits together but its all manufactured in the third world

Mmm not sure if they're that good. They are indeed CB bikes rebadges, they also hike the price up when they put that Land Rover logo on it. I think they're more of a gimmick, if you want to ride seriously then there are much more sophisticated and 'better' bikes on sale. The G4 one does look nice though.
