It's a 500(ish) acre hill farm in mid Wales where you could turn up, hand Tommy (the owner) a fiver, then blast around 'til you either got bored, knackered, or broke some bones. It's been going for decades, & the council have been trying to shut it down for as long as I can remember, but never quite managed it until now.
No ones safe from the do gooders... I had a look round some of the 4x4 forums and even found one lot all gleefully going on about how pleased they were that the 'irresponsible' offroaders had been stopped! 'First they came for the je...... er I mean the Jimmys.....' Their front lawns used to be safe while the head bangers were tucked away in a remote few hundred acres in mid Wales. By heck there's been some fun had in that place.

I had my first go on a quad this week and was surprised at just how hideously they handled. The only way to get it to go round bends was gas the **** out of it, slide the back end out and drift it round. Guide was having none of it, mind.
The rumour is it won't be his land for much longer as the taxman's nabbed it. I'm one of several who'll be keeping a close eye on the Welsh property auction houses over the next few months.
