Can segways be taken off roading? How durable are they? Do you need a special segway for rougher terrain or are normal ones ok? Do must segway companies offer segwaying on paths in the city or in forests and mud (that´s what I´m looking for). I´m hoping to find a segway experience that is adrenaline...

I was hoping to go Mountain biking with my nephew and a friend soon as the weather has been gorgeous but I am not sure of how to take along the little one. He has a bike but I am not sure how resistant it would be on tough terrain. Could anyone give me any pointers as to how to go mountain biking wi...

As far as I was concerned, I thought that laser tag was an activity that had to be practised in the dark in order to see the lasers (which I thought was part of the fun). I have lately started to see what look like paintball venues that offer laser tag and I can´t help but think that part of the fun...

It is necessary to have a license in the UK if you want to drive a jet ski in British waters? What about in foreign waters? If it is necessary, how would I go about getting one? Is it necessary to have your own jetski or do they supply them? To give my back ground, I have never ridden a jet ski befo...

I´m still quite a novice climber and I would just like to know the difference between single pitch and multiple crags (if that is the right terminology). As the name implies, multiple crags has to be more than one crag but does single pitch refer to only one crag? What extra training and skill is ne...

On a caving expedition, is it possible to see any animals? When I think of animals in caves I automatically think of bats (as I´m sure everyone else does). In the UK are there bats in caves that are normally explored? If so, do they present any type of danger? Can snakes and spiders be found as well...

What is the exact dynamic behind gliders staying in the air? I know that this is all science but before doing something like this it´s good to have a good background. Can a glider just plummet from the sky? Is there any type of adverse weather conditions that can cause problems (air pockets of stron...

In kitesurfing, what are the biggest risks? I have to told of the dangers of the wind catching your kite and carrying up too high and perhaps dropping you afterwards. What about the dangers of the cords? Could the kitesurf become entangles in the line? On a scale of 1 to 10, how dangerous is kitesur...

Out of curiousity, does tandem kitesurfing exist? Would it not be a good way to learn with an instructor to get a feel so the sport. I know that there are lots of tandem sports out there although I haven´t seen any for kitesurfing as of it. Would you need a bigger kite or different equipement?...

I think i would enjoy wakeboarding more but I would like to start off with the classic sport. For a beginnner, what would be mo...

Is it possible to clay pigeon shoot with glasses? My eye sight isn´t bad but i can´t see very well in the distance and I presume that I would enjoy myself more and be more successful if I were to wear my specs. I do not have contacts at the moment. Does anyone have experience shooting with glasses o...

What time of year do zorbing companies start to allow water (or aqua) zorbing? I would prefer to try this type of zorbing and as soon as possible but I can´t seem to find a place that runs this activity yet. Is it mainly a summer activity or an activity that´s more common outside of the uk?...

Is it necessary to have the RYA Powerboat Level 1 course before starting RYA Powerboat Level 2? I have been reading up on the course descriptions and it seems as if Level 2 is quite similar to Level 1, only that the training is more indepth and extensive. With that said, I do not see much point in d...

If you are an experienced and competent kitesurfer or block karter, will the other sport be easy for you to pick up? Would you be able to use the same kite as well for both activities? I ask this as I thought these two sports could be quite complementary as if the water conditions were poor one day,...

I´m starting to train seriously this spring on my mountain bike and I´m curious to know how many calories i would be burning during a 2 hour peddling session so that I can eat accordingly. I know it would depend on how long I peddle for and the terrain but usually I´m out on flat surfaces without mu...
