| - Let me start by saying that this certainly isn't an attraction for everyone. If you don't think you'd enjoy driving around heavy machinery, skip it. But... if you've ever though about driving a big bulldozer then BOOK THIS NOW!!!
This was SO much fun!!!
When I originally booked, I had my eye on cruising around in an excavator, unfortunately (not really) they only had the bulldozer available. Looking back, the excavator looks like more fun on paper, but honestly, you really can't beat digging a big hole and driving up on a huge mound of dirt. It's AWESOME. I HIGHLY recommend opting for the bulldozer.
I lucked out too. I had my own personal instructor, Mike. He was awesome!
First, Mike talked me though all of the controls, then I got to drive it around weaving in and out between some cones. Next I pushed a stack of tires through the cones. These were fun, but not very challenging.
The fun part was digging the trench and building a huge mound of dirt. Mike expertly walked me through every motion of making the tallest mound possible. Once that was built, up and over I went. What a ride! A few more times up and over and then it was time to clean up my mess. Mike walked me through the proper way of back-filling and by the time we were done, you couldn't even tell I had been there.
I really can't say enough good stuff about the whole experience, it's like a childhood dream come true.
Thanks guys!!!
