I went to Mablethorpe last weekend with my 9 year old son, I haven't been for ages. When I told my son we were going go-karting he was really excited, even though he had never been karting before.
We got there and I can't fault the place or the 2 guys on shift that day, this was Saturday 26th July.

He let her sit in one of the carts and demonstrated that her leg when pressing the pedal was fully stretched and therefore it wasn't safe. He was decent enough about it and was apologetic. Thank you for looking for the safety of our loved one! Probably see...
