Tom's Farm, near Rhayader.
clover:
These particular lads do! Point taken thou... don't get me wrong I'm not saying every one who uses Tom's farm and pay and play sites is the same, just this group in particular, that will need some other creative outlet for their aggression.
I'm not criticizing paying customers at all as I will have be become one eventually when the government closes all the lanes. I am all for sticking up for the right to use these sites.
I have never used Tom's farm myself and the fact that I'm too tight to do so was me poking fun at myself. An opportunity missed and all that...

Tom's Farm along with Tom were from a different generation and way of life to the current political correctness. I have been there a few times, though not for a while now. There were many aspects of the site that I did not agree with, but many I can appreciate other people not understanding, such as Tom's apparent attitude towards the aurthorities.
An interesting point about not wanting to pay for off roading, I actually find a days greenlaning as expensive as a days pay and plays due to the amount of fuel used, though that is with a petrol and doesn't include towing.

Some of the my mates go regularly and they went last weekend 26/4/2009. All ok and open but with Dyfed/powys police with ANPR cameras sat outside the gate making sure all was legal. I've been told the police are very friendly and helpfull.
I hope this helps Mark

I've never been to Tom's farm, but speaking as one whose job it is to catch naughty people, I would rather have a place where younglings can go and learn how to handle cars/bikes, than have them blatting up and down on Public highways (all types) risking accidents, seizure of vehicles and criminalization.
On the other hand, places that are available should abide by all the regs that are there to stop injuries. In this day and age of the 'blame culture', is that not a good thing?
All humans need an element of risk in their lives. It teaches common sense, logical thinking and respect for their machinery and their surroundings.
