Information about the Club
The MROC, the club for all Land Rover owners and enthusiasts around the Midlands, which is arguably the senior club in the Association of Land Rover Clubs. Regular competitive and social events are held throughout the year.
TYRO Trials -
The first stage in off-road competition. Intended as a non-damaging event to introduce drivers as young as 14 to the art of off-road driving under competitive conditions.
Road Taxed Vehicle Trials -
RTVs are designed to be non-damaging and require minimal modifications to vehicles in order to take part.
Cross-Country Vehicle Trials -
CCVTs mean that the vehicle has to be fitted with a roll-cage and meet ALRC (Association of Land Rover Clubs) specifications. Similar to, but tougher than RTV.
Caravanning and Camping -
Quite a large number of club members enjoy the caravan rallies, which are held from January to December. Some meetings are quiet and peaceful, whilst others are linked to competitive events.
Club Open Days -
Organised occasionally to give drivers a chance to drive their vehicles off-road, keeping as clean or getting as muddy as they like! Usually open to non-members and other marques of vehicle too.
Green Lane Trips -
Carefully organised to adhere to the relevant Code of Conduct. These can be a day or weekend and are great fun, with friendly people and fantastic countryside views.
Recovery -
A popular section of the club, supplying drivers and vehicles for recovery and transport purposes at events such as point to points, hill trials, charity events, or any event where the organisers require a transport facility or vehicle recovery facilities - especially under off-road conditions.
4x4 Response -
A relatively new section set up to assist our local communities when they are in need, usually severe weather related but assistance is offered for any civil emergency such as area evacuation or transport in the event of serious accident not easily accessible by road. Working in partnership with local authorities to enable them to continue delivering some of their essential services when required, trained & DBS checked volunteers offer a 24/7 callout in the West Midlands and adjoining counties.
