Recreational drive (4)
I believe the answer is:
spin
'recreational drive' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for spin that I've seen before include "Massaging of news" , "Work natural fibres into a thread or twist a story" , "Mendacious PR; type of bowling" , "Revolve quickly" , "Run second leg" .)
