Great fun mini camp. Three talented young drivers and their mentor Jo Gladstone. Sunshine, ponies and learning. Just goes to show, when you put the effort in you get the rewards. Thanks for making a fun two days in the sunshine.

The new Fenix Water obstacle is in the testing phase. Unfortunately it seems to be shrinking our 16.2hh KWPN horses down to 12.2hh Hackney ponies!

The latest restoration to leave the Fenix workshops in Devon. This Ralli Car by Jackett Brothers, Swansea is now owned by the family of the original makers. At Fenix we believe every carriage has an interesting story. We enjoy the research and every restoration is accompanied by a booklet showing the before, during and after photos.

Team Fenix AKA MINI adventurers are nearly halfway through The Motoscape Banger Rally. MINI is behaving well so far, two warning lights now out (hoping we don’t see too many more) Regular oil top ups and kind words seem to be keeping it happy. Just over 1000 miles in. We are trying to fit in as many sights and miles as possibly. Yes we are having huge amounts of fun but there is a good cause too. If you are enjoying our photos please do consider donating to the The CIP Project and keep your fingers crossed for our second leg of adventuring!

12yo Jamie was inspired by the extreme driving at the London International Horse Show. He was given his first driving lesson at Fenix in February 2022. His mother Sarah jokes it was a very expensive Birthday present as Jamie is now hooked on driving. In August 2022 we trained his wonderful 17yo racing/riding pony Georgie to drive. Georgie loves her new role and the three of them have been very successful at club and young driver level. Mum Sarah comments “Jamie is completely committed to the driving and Mark has been a total inspiration - brilliant teacher and mentor - there is no way he would have got this far without him.”
Good luck for the future Jamie.
