Estate Cars Rock

Estate Cars Rock!!!

I have recently realised just how awesome owning an Estate car is, I have been driving a sweet Passat for approx 2 months now, including a snowboard trip to Chamonix and Alpe D’Huez in France. But why are these majestic beasts so amazing? I will tell you why: on a regular driving day I will usually only possess one open beverage, but should the occasion arise my estate car can easily mobilise up to four potentially hot infusions, utilising its suitably placed front and rear cup holders. This is fantastic news for the liquid refreshment connoisseur such as myself. Further to this should you require to charge more than one item using a cigarette lighter socket, you’re totally covered with the Passat. This is unlikely you might say, as I being a crafty consumer chose a Blackberry over the poorly powered iphone, but a situation may still arise one day where this function will be necessary, who will be laughing then???

To conclude, the estate car driver is by far the smartest of all road users whether it’s a weekend at Loch-Stock or a trip to Tescos, you’re sure to be satisfied with the practicality and prestige of an estate car.


Loch Stock Coaching Weekend

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

Although James Hooper arrived at the loch after a stressful journey, missing his flight due to traffic not volcanic dust, he greeted the Loch Stock guests with enthusiasm and got straight into the spirit of things by having a quick ride.

Both boats were running with James Hooper and Dave Knight coaching non-stop all weekend, big thanks guys! Loch Lomond Wakeboard’s new 2010 demo boards were available to try out courtesy of Liquid Force and O’Brien.

Energy levels were running high due to a constant supply of Relentless energy drinks and the Bonnington Lane Studios DJs playing a mix up of mellow beats. Families and passers-by enjoyed the day’s event, hanging about in the club house drinking tea and the odd beer. The evening’s events included a moonlight winch gap rail session and a large scale bonfire which kept the spectators toasty.

The weather was awesome all weekend and has got the season off to a fine start. Lots of riders signed up for the Loch Stock Tour as the early bird prices run out on Monday 17th May, so get signed up! The atmosphere at LLWB is great every weekend, come along and see for yourself or drop in mid-week for a ride and a BBQ.

If you missed out this time, don’t worry, there are still spaces available for Jack Hammersley’s coaching week and weekend which starts on 31st May and is based at www.Ardluiretreat.com.

Hope to see you all at the loch soon!
