When you find one let me know. There is a place here:
Mad on Mud Club
but I haven't got round to going there yet. May just, at this rate. There's also a farm up near Perth I believe - will try and find out more.

You dont seem to enthusiastic about the mad on mud place! It looks pretty good, do you know anymore about it than what is on the webpage? Like can you get the tour before you pay for a membership or how big/how many routes there are? Think i may pay a visit after the year. |

Drumclog is worth a trip. Best to go with a group though. It's on the A71 a few miles past Strathaven. |

OK - so is anyone interested in either the Mad-onMud place, or Drumclog, in the next few weeks?

I have been up to the Mad On Mud place a couple of times to check it out and all the info I got was from a guy called Willie who wasnt very helpfull, he just told me to have a look in the club house which is a basic portacabin with some pics and rules and regulations on the wall, no willingness to show you around or what kindda prices/tracks etc,I think they like to sell packages for days out being driven around in theyre Landrovers, although after doing some research myself you can get a days tuition or is it a half day cant remember for around £100, It is situated near a place called Strathmiglow. |
