Do you own a Quad Bike with Towbar? Do you know someone that does?

The reason I ask is that I do a bit of work with the Scout Association and we are looking to borrow a quad from a generous type person for a day (Sat 26th May to be exact) as our local area are having a large event to commemorate 100 Years of Scouting at the local camping ground near Denny. This will be attended by hundreds of People (Scouts, Visitors, Kids of all ages).

We need the quad to transport equipment up through the wood with the minimal damage to the ground (it will fit on the pathways). I have already secured a suitable trailer, therefore I just need the quad to pull it.

If you could help, that would be amazing, I can come and collect/drop back off no problem. Email me if you like. :D

Craig, Just spoken with my friend Buster (Richard) I have gave him the details from this thread re why you want the Quad.

He helps out with his local Scout group and always likes to help others when he can. His driver (John)is often up this way. It could be possible he might send him with one of his Quads we will see what he says and if it's good I will pass on your mobile
Oviously if a local comes up with the goods then that would be great.
