Hi everyone.

Have any of you noticed there is nothing available for disabled people to get out there and get full off mud? Previous to my sci I was a quading enthusiast and used to ride at local tracks. Post sci I was very disappointed to find there were no such places that accommodated people with a disability. I have come across a possible opportunity to set up and run an off road/quading experience for disabled people, using the woodstar ATC.
Some of you may be familiar with these, for those of you who are not the woodstar is a specially designed all terrain vehicle built for physically impaired people, and trust me when I say these things are amazing! They will go wherever you point them! With a top speed of 60-mph. The vehicles I have can be driven by people with sci level c5 or lower. They are equipped with hydraulic steering, brakes and accelerator. I am injured at c6 complete and have more than enough strength to control the quad. If it goes well I will look into getting more specialist equipment on one of the vehicles to enable people with a higher level injury to drive.
The track will be about 5 miles from Southport spinal injury centre in Lancashire. I am just trying to get an idea of how many people would be interested in having a go. If you could leave me your thoughts and some answers to the following questions that would be much appreciated.

1.How much would you pay for an hour on purpose built off road/quad track, includes the woodstar ATC, helmet, water proofs, and a fully trained instructor to show you how it all works. (please bare in mind the up keep of the ATC, equipment and instructor)
2.How far would you travel to have a go?
3.If you enjoy the experience how often would you like to go?

Thanks for looking and hope we get enough interest to get this up and running.
