718292 2008-11-06 22:32:00 Have any of you guys done (or know someone who has) the quad bike and/or Skywire trips with Happy Valley Adventures?

SWMBO & I are keen to do them when we're up in January, and I was just wondering how mint they are!

718293 2008-11-06 22:54:00 Great you should ask, my dad is a surveyor, and he worked on setting up the Skywire. :thumbs: :banana

We all got to go on it, christmas shout! :D

Unless you aren't concerned about the amount of money you're going to spend I wouldn't really recommend it. It's very cool, but certainly not thrilling (more relaxing, although you do touch 90kph) and the views aren't all that spectaluar seeing as it's tucked into a valley and you need a crystal clear day to make out anything in the distance. Not that its bad, it was great and really enjoyable, just seemed a little overpriced. That's only a problem for some of us eh. :p

The quad bikes though - highly recommended, thats awesome fun. Bring a change of clothes.

718295 2008-11-07 06:11:00 Not done either but have heard from friends the quads are great fun, personally not my scene too noisy, much prefer MTB'ing. Off caving tomorrow back on Sunday. Was not involved in the rescue up North but know the woman very well. gary67 (56)

Gary, didn't she also help with the rescue of Dr Brewer?

She was the one on the original trip with him who stayed behind to keep him warm while the other 2 went for help. Had a great day myself in Corkscrew cave we put in 250m of rope and still ran out before the end so had to come out again without getting to the end of the cave. :(
