Royal Armoured Corps HQ is in Bovington (hence the tank museum) and down the road at Lulworth is a very large armoured core range and training centre. Every soldier who will serve in either a mounted infantry battalion or armoured regiment will spend some time in Bovi and Lulworth learning the tools of the trade.
The think that came up behind you (if it had tracks) would most likely have been either a Challenger II or a Warrior. Less likely but possible (since they have been replaced) it could have been a CVRT variant.
Ah, ta for the info Gandalf. Yeah, it deffo had tracks, rubber inserts I think too. On that Lulworth loop I rode past the entrances to some of the MOD places where it looked like they do the training.
