Once upon a time there was a rally driving experience in Oxfordshire where you step back into motorsport history to drive the good & the great Ford Escort! A good serving of 1970s nostalgia most definitely on the menu with these fabulous & funky half & full day rallying sessions at this school near Bicester. One of our most popular venues in the UK it's your chance to drive a rally legend. The original & still the best. The Ford Escort MKII RS2000 is one of the most successful rally icons of all time. The Escort has won more world championship rallies than any other car in the history of the sport. The Mk I star was the Mexico & this was superseded in the MKII production by the inimitable & still current RS series. Awash with rally victories from 1975 to 1981 the list of drivers piloting the RS to the podium reads like a who's who of rallying. There's Timo Makinen Roger Clark Bjorn Waldegard Hannu Mikola & not forgetting Ari Vatanen whose co-driver David Richards you might know from Aston Martin & specialist rally outfit Pro Drive fame. But enough of the history it's time to bring old school rallying back to life in Oxfordshire as it's your chance now to give rallying a go at this superb venue just outside Bicester. Enjoy the thrill of handbrake turns power slides Scandinavian flicks & quickly learn how to control the car in understeer & oversteer situations on the special rally stage. The reputation of the rally school here in Bicester is riding high too boasting a long history of competing in major rally championships. The fleet of cars is all serviced & maintained in-house too providing professionally built Group four spec rally vehicles for us all to enjoy. What we love about all these Oxfordshire sessions is that you will stay with the same rally instructor throughout so together you can build your skills & learn just what it tales to handle these two wheel drive sliding machines. Of course the full day rally driving experience at this Oxfordshire-based school is the ultimate as it gives you loads of time behind the wheel to explore the bespoke special stages in these full blown rally legends. One last highlight is a timed event at the end of the day to see who is the champ of MK II Escort rallying at Bicester! No wonder this is one of our most popular rally schools. We reckon it's time you got booked in! ...

Set your sights on a big shooting challenge at this indoor gun range! Head down to Crackshot in Devon for a session with air rifles & pistols shooting targets. Take on the challenge & see who is the champion hotshot. Who'd have thought that behind the rather innocuous facade of an industrial estate building at Heathfield halfway between Bovey Tracey & Newton Abbot there lies a top notch indoor gun centre boasting not one not two but three different ranges: the pistol range the air rifle range & the high-tech simulated shoot. On arrival at this Devon range you'll see the smart reception area is also home to a well-stocked gun shop with everything that anyone from the amateur air rifle shooter to a top class marksman would need. Once the gun fit & safety briefings have been done it's time to let the shots ring out… On these experiences you can go for a one hour session that means that you can try your hand at two of the three ranges or go for the one & a half hour slot &... ...

River Bugging is the latest craze in Scotland that hails from down under & adrenaline is guaranteed as you take to the River Tummel in Perthshire in your personal River Bug! Bugging is a great way to see the river from a different perspective whether it's in a full raging spate or showing the calmer face of the summer. In fact high water or otherwise bugging is a thrill a minute
- river-based activity & not to be missed if you can keep a cool head when the spray is flying the river is deep & you're getting soaked. This centre was the first in Scotland to offer river bugging & this experience takes place on the Tummel river near Pitlochry. Since then several rivers in the area have been bugged but this is considered to be the original & the best. The bugs themselves are like blow up armchairs & work like a personal raft as you sit in them & launch yourself down the fast flowing waters negotiating your own path as you go.

Product Description

Take to the water with a serene kayak or canoe tour of London! This is your chance to explore the Thames embarking from Richmond as a group led by one of the enthusiastic & very capable instructors. & of course everything you need is included & there’s no previous canoe experience needed!

For these fun-filled days out that get you away from all the bustle of London you have the choice of a kayak or a canoe tour. This centre uses stable open canoes that are shared. They are brilliant to paddle as a group & it’s camaraderie all the way. They are also easy to get the hang of which means you’ll soon get into the relaxed way of life on the water as you drift along the river.

& if you go for the kayaking outing you’ll be in your own kneeling or sit down kayak. That means the power is all down to you (and your arms!) but don’t worry if you’ve never paddled before as a warm up & technique session is always included

Indeed the experience starts on the riverbank as you meet your instructor & guide at the Petersham slipway in Richmond. & of course this venue has British Canoe Union approved (BCU) fully qualified passionate instructors & you will all be kitted out in all the safety gear needed & also given the essential tool of the trade; the paddle.

Once you have launched onto the water in the canoes or kayaks you will paddle peacefully upstream on the Thames. There will be little challenges for you to complete as you go & you may get as far to Eel Pie Island in Twickenham. Eel Pie Island is a superb little private island that is only accessible by footbridge or boat & this delightful place is home to a small number of houses & artists’ studios making it an interesting & unusual destination to aim for in your vessel.

During these trips there is often the chance to stop off at The White Swan; a quaint little 17th century pub in Twickenham that could almost be anywhere in the middle of the English countryside. If you arrive at the right time you may experience a gentle tide lapping around your garden table.

These sociable & laid back riverside tours of the Thames & Eel Pie Island will last around two & a half hours. Don’t hesitate take advantage of this fantastic kayak or canoeing in London offer from Into the Blue & get paddling!
