Blind 4x4 Driving in Oxford

How much do you trust your mates? Blindfold driving in Oxford

Think you have the skills to work as a team and successfully aid your friends in the challenge of driving our course? The only catch is they can’t see a single thing. You will be responsible for every wrong turn you take, each cone they knock and bumps they hit!

Just remember who to trust as they all shout out directions to you from the rear of the vehicle. With points awarded for every gate successfully navigated and points deducted for every gate you miss you really will see who will crack under the pressure and who can keep a cool head.

Never fear though with an experienced instructor in the passenger seat you know you won’t end up on the A34!

Quad Biking Frequently Asked Questions

How does the activity run?
We normally run half of the number of quads for your group size, but dependant on your skill levels can run a minimum of a third of the number of quads for your group size.

What is the minimum/maximum group size?
We do not have a minimum number but a group of 6 and under, we reserve the right to mix you with another party (up to a group size of 12). Maximum group size is 12 people, if your group size is larger than this we may run with more bikes and instructors, provided with more time or dependant on your activity choice you will be split over 2 or more activities.

How long does the session last?
The quads are normally run in a package. It does depend on which package you have booked as to how long you will be on site. A package with four activities can last between 3 and a half hours to 4 hours.

How long will I be on site?
This is dependant on the number of activities booked but we ask that you arrive half an hour prior to the start of your activities, and you will need at least 15 minutes from when the activities have finished to getting in your car.

Is there a minimum age?
The minimum age for quad biking is 16

Do I need a driving license?
No driving license is required but drivers must be 16 and over.

Maximum weight
The quads have plenty of power but are designed for a maximum of 18 stone or 114 kg.

Am I insured?
Max Events carries £5 million public liability insurance. This covers us and you in the event of our negligence. You are provided with all instruction necessary to complete the activity safely, if you operate any equipment beyond your ability or the boundaries that we provide you will not be covered, it does not cover you for acts of stupidity or if an incident arises beyond our control.

Can we operate in any weather?
Unfortunately we cannot control the weather. In most cases we work very hard to ensure your event runs smoothly and with the required activities in your booking. If we feel we have a health and safety issue we would try and make contact in the week prior to your arrival and offer some alternative suggestions. In extreme circumstances on the day we may have to offer an alternative activity which carries an equal or greater value.

Will I get dirty / Do you provide overalls?
All our tracks are outdoors so this is dependant on the weather. Hot and sunny you will get dusty, wet and you will get muddy. We do not provide overalls for each individual person, we do have a range of overalls for sale on the day, prices start at £2.00 and in most cases this is enough to keep you relatively clean.

Do you provide gloves?
No but if you require we may have some in stock to purchase.

Do I need specific footwear?
Either trainers or walking boots are a must. You must wear shoes that will not fall off, and that cover the whole foot, i.e no flip flops.

Can I bring my own helmet?
Yes if it conforms to European standard.

Do you provide any safety equipment?
Yes we provide all necessary safety equipment for each activity, as outlined by our insurance obligations.

Can i wear fancy dress?
Yes, so long as it does not have the potential to be caught in any moving parts, does not impair vision, means you are still wearing the correct footwear and can wear a helmet.

Do I have to wear a helmet?
Yes in all circumstances to comply with our insurance helmets are compulsory.
