I dropped by Royal Quays Outlet Village near North Shields today to check out the Team M.A.D Land Rover doing their routine to publicise the opening of the new Land Rover Outlet store.

The M.A.D (Mountainbike Aerial Display) team tour the country doing their highly spectacular routines for the public at a whole host of different venues. See www.m-a-d.co.uk for more info.
