Prepare to be sliding all over the place as you get behind the wheel of a powerful Gemini Liberator buggy. The 400cc, 30hp machines are hugely fun to drive and you'll be guaranteed to be going sideways as you bolt around a brilliant grass track full of tight chicanes. Up to 2 buggies will be out on the track at once and the session begins with a few practice laps around the track. Next it's time for an endurance event where participants will be split into teams and expected to operate as a fully functional pit team as they negotiate pit stops and driver changeovers. The session will end with some timed individual races to determine who is the fastest on 4 wheels.

Duration:
Approximately 1 hour

Overiew:
Take on the challenge of deep mud, water pools and slippery descents on a brilliant Yamaha fully automatic quad bike. You will be accompanied by qualified instructors who will explain the bike’s controls and allow you to have a practice ride before you embark on a trek up into the fells.  There is no set track as this is true off-road quad bike trekking; the course will be made up as you go along to match the group’s ability. All safety equipment is provided including overalls, helmets and gloves.  Be warned though: you will not just be riding around on a flat field and are guaranteed to get a bit muddy, so don’t bring your high heels! Each event session lasts a full hour of driving time per person. 

Notes:
For safety reasons a maximum of twelve people will be out on the quad bikes at any one time. It is therefore recommended to mix the activity with another event to keep everyone busy.

Overview:
Treat your group to a fantastic, action packed day of activities that they will remember long after the wedding is over. Mix and matching your activities means everyone has the chance of glory, including you and the stag!

So, you’ll not only have a much greater chance of becoming a champion but it will also keep you out of the pub that little bit longer, meaning the lightweights of the group are still on board for the evening’s festivities.
Combine any of the activities on offer, all at the one site.

This venue has all of the spectacular natural features to make it one of the best places in the UK to experience an off-road adventure. With over 500 acres of hills, bogs, woodland and water, any event held here will be sure to blow out the cobwebs and get the adrenalin rushing.

Format:
Choose from any two of the following:

Extreme Quad Biking

There is no set track as this is true off-road quad bike trekking; the course will be made up as you go along to match the group's ability.

Each event session lasts a full hour of driving time per person.

Quad Endurance Racing
If you don't think the quad bike trek is the thing to rock your boat, then try a bit of competitive racing. The coned track is set in a large 5 acre field and features water splashes, mud and rolling ridge and furrow straights. Depending upon your group size, between 2 and 4 quads will be on the track at any one time, with each team in charge of their own pit stop changeovers. The declared winner will be the team completing the most laps during the race.

Clay Shooting:
Pull, lead, squeeze, destroy, eject. Some people can and some people just can't. If you manage to get the hang of this fast paced action sport you can really put one over on the boys. Novices and old hands alike are well catered for with qualified instructors at the ready to take you through the basics and then to further hone your marksmanship. You will start on a couple of simple ‘straight up' practice targets to get the hang of things as you learn to track the bird and how to time your shots.

Professional instruction is provided in a 25 clay session with the instructor's aim to have even the most novice marksman hitting at least every second target by the end of the day. Different traps allow the target ‘birds' to be released in various flight patterns - across you, along the ground, away and up or straight down the barrel. You'll be using a 12" bore pump action shotgun just to spice things up a bit.
Included:
- 30 clays per person
- Expert tuition and use of all equipment

Air Rifles
To make sure your group is keeping their eyes on the prize, Air Rifle Shooting will be on offer to test your sharp shooting skills (or lack thereof). The shooting range has a series of targets and participants will be scored on their efforts. Up to 4 shooters can get out on the range at any one time.

Archery:
This event is simple really. Grab the most annoying member of the group, stand them up against a tree, bang an apple on their head, back-up 15 paces and let rip at the apple.

Well, you could probably do it, but just not whilst the instructor is looking. Archery is a game of points. The centre of the target being the highest and the outsides worth less. Missing everything all together wins you a cheer from your friends and nothing else....

4x4 Off Roading - (can only be done with clay shooting)
Using one of the beefy Land Rover Defenders, learn to drive off road on one of the biggest sites in the UK. 500 acres of extreme hills, rocks, water runs and bogs await drivers who are after some extreme adventure. Your qualified instructor will teach you how to handle some of the hardest off road terrain available and if you get stuck you may be taught some special winching techniques. Three other passengers can accompany the driver during the session.

Included:
- Two Activity sessions of your choice

Duration:
Allow approximately 1¼ hours for each driving event session. Shooting event may last longer depending on group size. Allow about 4 hours in total.

Notes:
Minimum 10 people for clay pigeon shooting & archery

The Site:
This splendid paintball site makes the utmost use of the terrain, with an exciting variety of games and unusual zones that you would not encounter at other, more standard, sites. The differing scenarios include such awesomeness as:
 
Afghan Fort
A giant fortress dominates a clearing in the jungle, and it’s crawling with enemy forces.  Your mission is to carry out a “Halo-Insertion”.  That’s SAS-talk for dropping one of your team members in with an explosive device to take-out the enemy base.  Who will be brave enough to accept the mission? 

Tomb Raider
Your mission is to trek through the jungle and locate an ancient stone pyramid.  It is said that a sacred amulet lies deep in the cold heart of the pyramid. The amulet is imbued with remarkable powers.  Evil forces are converging on the pyramid from another direction and they are out to grab the amulet for themselves; they'll stop at nothing to succeed.

Format:
Clench your fists, grit your teeth, it's competition time. You'll be roaring round this exhilarating British Championship circuit which is one of the largest in the UK, then test your wits on the fast-paced speedball field.

The Circuit:
This snaking 1200m monster is challenging, wet or dry. It demands respect through the turning sections if you are to keep you lap times low, but the best drivers hit back with productive use of the throttle when laying down the power coming into the straights. Be careful though: uncontrolled 360s into the tyre barriers are embarrassing and destroy your chances of spraying bubbly at the end of the day. 

The Karts:
The boys in the pits have just taken delivery of a brand new fleet of 390 cc Eglem Thunderkarts, one of the most advanced general usage kart available. It is one of the few circuits in the UK running these awesome 70mph animals as standard and they are kept in top condition to ensure even racing.

The Racing – Grand Prix:
After a quick video and safety briefing, each driver will go out onto the circuit for a practice session. During this time the computer will monitor lap times which will determine the start position for the main race. After a short break you're back out on to the circuit for a 30 minute non-stop grand prix. Concentration and consistency are the key to victory and the chequered flag falls just as your shoulders begin to ache. Once your heart rate has settled down, the race results are announced. The winner receives a well deserved trophy and there will also be a special prize for the fastest lap during the race.

Kart Notes:
- Duration is 1.5 hours including briefings and practice
- Driving time: 15 minutes timed practice, to determine grid positions, then a 30 min head to head race.
- Groups of more than 20 will do an endurance race

Speedball:
Speedball is the latest thing in paintball - it's a fast and furious game of tactical prowess and strategic play. Played on the UK’s largest purpose built arena, it is far cleaner and safer than traditional paintball with an even rubber surface underfoot. It is the most popular form of paintball in the USA now available here in the UK. There's colour coded equipment for easy recognition of team members and the opposition plus you'll be using the very latest Tippman guns which are both reliable and very accurate. There are various timber structures and giant inflatable’s to provide cover as you relentlessly unleash your paint-filled-pellets-of-pain on the enemy.

Speedball Duration:
- 2 hours

Included:
- Two full sessions for the day.
- Please note no paintballs are included - Balls are approximately £7 per 100 or £20 for 300

Duration:
 - Allow approx 4 hours for your day.

Notes:
- Please wear comfortable clothing you don't mind getting dirty.
- Paintballs are available to pre-purchase! Please ask for the best deals.

Overview:

If you’re looking for an activity to make the weekend memorable, or something to bring together a group of guys who don’t all know each other, then cocktail making, or mixology as it’s called, is the perfect solution.

Experienced, professional and friendly mixologists will take you step by step through the history of cocktails and then show you how to make three of the classics, before handing you the bottles and letting your imagination and creativity run wild.

As you experiment under expert guidance as to what works and what doesn’t, you’ll start to appreciate a whole new art form and most excitingly develop skills which you can then hone with friends and family in the years to come.

Format:
Each group will have one or more cocktail ambassadors who will brief you on the day's activities before giving a short introductory talk on the history of the cocktail and the origin of the word. Each member of your group will then be given a bar tool which they will have to try to identify before putting the tools in the correct order of use when making a cocktail.

The ambassador will then make an introduction shot for the group where he/she will explain what all of the bar tools are used for. If you don't know the difference between a Hawthorn strainer and a Boston shaker, you'll find out.

Everyone then makes lemonade using real lemons, gomme and soda water, and you'll learn about how to perfectly balance sweet and sour. You'll use your lemonade to make a Raspberry Vodka Collins and a Passion Fruit Krushka.

You'll then be talked through the history of, and taught how to make a Mojito/Bison Grass Mojito, a Pear Caipirowska, a Cosmopolitan and a White Russian/Bride. Then it'll be your turn to show off your cocktail skills by going head to head with another member of your group in a shake off where you'll each make one of the cocktails.

The event will end with a mini quiz with two free cocktail vouchers each on offer for the winning team. To soak up some of the alcohol, your group will also have pizza and wedges to nibble at.

Overview
There's nothing quite like a bit of head-to-head rivalry with your mates. They say that nice guys come last, so the question is: do you have the competitive instinct and controlled aggression needed to finish first? Or are you happy to look down the tailpipe of your pal as he passes the chequered flag? No one wants that on their record for future pub banter.
 
Forget about speed limits and points on your licence, put your foot to the floor and burn rubber around the one of the city's  great karting tracks. Karting was made for large groups and whether you are racing individually or in teams everyone’s eyes will be on the leader board to see who’s on top.
