If you are going away somewhere and don't mind meeting up with other Bongo owners or if you've been somewhere & want to tell us about it & stick up your photos, put the details here.

Catherine,
I didn't know where it was either :lol: but I googled Tackaroo and got this :lol: which I'm assuming is the right place.
Its a couple of hours from me but looks great.

Looking at the blurb they do paddock rides for under 7s, whether that means for the beginners trek you need to be at least 7 I'm not sure.

Also not sure how old Mia is #-o :oops:

Definitely, it's horses not ponies.

If you're not a beginner you'd be at a different time, although you could always say you are a beginner :lol:

We were looking at the Southern Softies, but think this will be nearer for us and quicker to get too :)

Hi Folks

We've had approval from the ranger for the day meet at £3 per bongo, obviously camping is separate. We have also had the offer of a forest trail tour suitable for Road vehicles. I'm waiting on an indication of costs for that but in the mean time who would like to go on the forest trail?

Thanks

Hi there

The camping is up to you. You can stay there or there are other sites in the area. It's not far from kingsbury C&CC site to Cannock.

I'm from south London originally and agree it's a long way :roll:

:oops:

See this: http://www.forestry.gov.uk/website/ourw ... ntheForest

Off road trail looks to be £50 per vehicle - I think 12 vehicles are needed but a group discount is possible.

Any takers

PS Mountain Bikes are free...........
