There are no figures available which estimate
the number of regular participants for this activity. So far
in 1998 the Auto-Cycle Union (ACU) has issued 123 licences for
quad bikes, showing a small increase over the last 3 years.
The equipment is also available for hire at a growing number
of outlets.
