Dear Follow Me 4wd,
Fortescue Metals Group recently completed Operate Quad Bike training and as a group we were extremely pleased with the professional knowledge in relation to the course.
For the trainers – David and Ricky were very approachable/adaptable characters which made all Fortescue attendees very comfortable.
For the training – Very interactive and practical along with fantastic points of improvement.
I highly recommend this training organisation, from start to finish the business provided great assistance throughout the journey.
Thanks again.
Dear Team at Tow-ed,
Daniel and I would like to congratulate you on the service of the Tow-ed Adelaide team! Wow! Ricky with Darren assisting him was fantastic.
At the last Caravan and Camping Show in Adelaide we signed up for a Tow-ed course as we knew our new pride and joy (a new Jurgens Lunagazer caravan) was on it’s way.
Within days of our caravan arriving we phoned Ricky and he obligingly got us straight down for instruction. We were amazed, as when we signed on we didn’t know how often the courses were run.
We continued to be impressed by the course itself and Ricky’s tips and knowledge and the comprehensive theory and hands on training we received. Ricky and Darren taught us both the individual and team skills to have us working as a confident team.
So much so, that we have received compliments from other caravaners on our seamless backing into some tight spaces, while keeping calm and positioning our van exactly where we want it. When we’ve received positive comments, we’ve let people know we learnt our skills on the Tow-ed course.
Our course was on October 21st at Keswick.
As an additional comment, on recommendation of a suitable levelling hitch to make travelling safer, after having the hitch installed we were uncertain about the settings. Ricky very kindly met with us again at short notice and we were able to get a full understanding about the way it works and how to adjust it according to the loads we are carrying and get on with enjoying our caravanning.
Thank you so much
Jenny and Daniel McLoughlin
Hello Ricky,
You asked for a review/Feedback from the training…….
After contacting Follow Me 4wd., inquiring about Nationally Accredited Training for Quad Bikes, I spoke with Ricky Esser.
Ricky was keen and very clear what was possible right from the start.
We went through a few scenarios an to where best the training be held and what was required in respects of equipment and training areas.
It was decided that Ricky travel to us because of cost effectiveness and timing.
On the morning of training Ricky reviewed the equipment and only accepted safe and serviceable vehicles.
A portable classroom was setup at the chosen training site and the course started, paperwork first.
Safety was paramount and at no stage was this standard relaxed.
Once on the Quad Bikes, the ability of each participant was determined and the course adjusted to teach and thoroughly asses individuals to competency and fully understand the operational skills.
Regular breaks were given for drinks and to absorb what we had just learnt.
I am very happy with the training and would not hesitate to recommend Follow Me 4wd to any one .
Regards
Damian
Hi Ricky,
I found the 1 day course to be a fun, positive and confidence building exercise. We were given ample time to practice and build our skills that we learnt throughout the course of the day. I felt that the Powerpoint presentation as well as the theory side of the course were very informative and especially handy for those of us that may not be quite so mechanically minded.
Thanks again Ricky for such a great experience!
cheers,
Bonnie
Hi,
I would like to write a quick review/testimony regarding a recent 4wd course I attended last week.
I participated on the 2 day course recently, having basic 4wd experience and knowledge I found the course to be extremely intuitive. Ricky, the trainer, was extremely knowledgeable and took the group through the fundamentals of 4wding. It was a very practical approach and Ricky spent the whole time ensuring that everyone understood the teachings and that no one was left behind. I thoroughly enjoyed the two days and would highly recommend anyone to be trained by Ricky. Phil M
Thanks for a great day! Our confidence and knowledge has grown so much- we even reversed into the tight driveway in the rain when we got home! Will definitely recommend you to anyone looking to do a course. Thanks again.
(Towing training April 30th 2020)
Another great day spent with the “master”. Once again learned heaps ( and not just about towing/reversing). Thanks Ricky for another informative and fun day. Everyone needs to do this simple course, it makes so much sense and takes the worry and stress out of maneouvering the van. Get on board and book a course now,it is Covid-19 compliant. Just do it!

A weekend at Robe with Ricky and Darren cruising the beach and sand, seeing the sights and enjoying the South Australian coast. Followme 4WD is a high quality service with great people and great trips.
Do yourself a favour and getaway with Followme. . Best thing I’ve done in years.
(Robe tagalong tpur March 2020)
What a brilliant 2 days. Eddie and I had a great time with a good group of like minded people. We learned sooo much in 2 days. I cannot recommend Follow Me highly enough. Ricky is a fantastic bloke and a pretty good teacher too. His broad knowledge of all types of vehicles and their individual 4WD idiosyncrasies is amazing. Thanks for an amazing couple of days Ricky.
( 2 day 4WD course March 2020)
I would like to thank Ricky and Darren for a great day, they really helped Lee and I gain our confidence with managing a caravan…..neither of us has ever towed a caravan before. We had no van but Ricky organised a van so we could get some experience before picking up our caravan in Qld….. when I get back from picking up the van I am going to do a 4WD course with Ricky before heading for WA….. Thanks again for a fun day of learning…….Steve & Lee

Towing Course 16/6/2020
Ricky, Lee and I had a great 3 days learning how to tow our van and 4WD our land cruiser. We feel a lot more confident starting our new caravanning off-road journey beginning this Wednesday. I would recommend anyone starting out or wanting to improve their skill to take your courses, we learnt so much about the capabilities and options of our cruiser that we did not know existed. Lee now has the confidence to tow or 4WD if I get injured or have too many reds. Thanks again Wicko
( off- road and on- road towing, 2 day 4WD course in both sandy and rocky terrain)
Thankyou Ricky for the 4WD training. I have definitely learnt a lot from your experience and training style, and am glad I went with Follow Me 4WD for my training. I have now gained more confidence and understanding of how my vehicle works (inside and out), as well as the skills and understanding to navigate 4WD tracks. Would definitely recommend Follow Me 4WD to anyone who owns or uses a 4WD. You are definitely a legend.

Had a ball doing the 2 day course with Ricky. Before the course I was not confident at all, now i can’t wait for the adventures to begin. Thanks Ricky!!!!

Ricky, you certainly removed the fear of 4 wheel driving from Lee by getting her to understand her ability and our cruisers capabilities. Another great day even though it was cold and wet …..

Hi Ricky & Darren,
Thank you both for the 2 day 4WD course. I will highly recommend your services to others. Your knowledge was brilliant and ability to convey this was excellent. Helping me understand the vehicles capabilities and functions was fantastic. Look forward to completing a towing training course in the future. I’ll make sure I find some $5 notes.
Thanks Ricky
We had a great day. The quality of the course, your knowledge and easy,friendly approach to learning was outstanding. 👍🏼🚗
Ricky is an amazing instructor. Funny and charming but also very professional. The course allows hands on experience in all aspects relative to the area and comprehensive knowledge was given where needed. I would definitely recommend this training.
(Corporate 2 day 4wd course- May 2021)
We have been towing our 17yr old track trailer for all of its life but we still decided prior to heading to Cape Yorke that we could benefit from a 4WD towing course. Absolutely worth every cent, allowed us much more confidence when expecting our tvan to just follow us where ever we go no matter how dogy the track or how far off the main track we got. Consequently camped bush every night from Victor to the tip and back again, 5,000 kms without a caravan park…..Ricky is flexible, patient, repetitive, and professional. Many thanks.
We had the best day ever! Thankyou so much Ricky. Before doing the course we were both very nervous and had no idea where to even begin. You were able to give us so much confidence and man was it fun!
You are one in a million and so great full we chose you to do the course through.
Not only did you make us feel as though we could conquer any sandy hill/ terrain but you showed us so many tips and tricks with the cruiser.
The whole time during the course you stopped when necessary and adjusted things on the cruiser and recommended businesses close by who slotted us infor a few extra things which we appreciate.
If you are after any course regarding 4WD, Ricky is the man to see!!
You are a champion!!

Fantastic organisation. I’ve done a few tag along tours and the experience is second to none. Ricky and the crew ensure their guests are treated to luxury no matter where you are. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to broaden their skill set and experiences with piece of mind.
Wow, wow, wow, I highly recommend Follow Me 4WD. I have just completed a tag a long tour in Robe. I have never driven 4WD before and as a solo traveller, their level of professionalism, safety and sense of responsibility for all on the trip made me feel safe and confident to face new challenges and push myself out of my comfort zone. Absolutely worth every $. I will definitely be tagging along again soon. I also met some amazing people. A big thanks to Ricky and his crew.
The weather was cool and windy but the advice was certainly not.
All information presented clearly and demonstrated so everyone could understand and follow.
Venues were excellent to demonstrate training techniques shown.
Ricky was patient, informative very knowledgeable and entertaining.
Excellent 2 days of fun and 4WD driving and I have learnt a lot about Vehicle and Driving capabilities
It was an amazing trip with another wonderful group.
Huge thanks to Ricky for organising these tours and ensuring everyone has a safe and great adventure.
