Off Road Training in Devon

We've recently spent a couple of enjoyable days working with Ian Shacklock of MTF Training on their purpose built off-road site in Winkleigh. Ian is a DSA Approved Driving Instructor, Registered Fleet Trainer and Lantra Approved 4x4, Quad Bike and ATV trainer.

We were training the Devon Coastguard in how to use their Nissan Navarras in a range of situations. Though we were unable to do any work on sand, we did manage to get a good amount of experience in soft turf and mud - working on techniques to keep moving. We did however manage to get them stuck up to their axles a couple of times. Thankfully, Ian is one of the few trainers who has the experience and know how to use a KERR (Kinetic Energy Recovery Rope) properly.

If you're looking for Off-Road Training in Devon, or need some training in the correct use of the KERR, then either contact MTF directly or get in touch with us:
