Ferrari experience fantastic !

Over the weekend I have been trying out one of the driving experieces we run;

It has always been a dream of mine to drive a Ferrari. it was fantastic. All I can keep saying now is "Iwant one, I want one". Will that ever happen, who knows.

The shear exhilaration and sound of the engine is tremendous. I got out smiling from ear to ear. I just can't get across how exciting it is.

Who knows how fast I was actually going?? But is was easily over 100mph. It seems effortless, like just driving at 30mph in a road car.

How the car sticks to the road is also amazing.

If you want to have a go, have a look at the driving experiences we sell. It is a great day out, and can be handled by all in the family.

If you have always wanted to drive a fast car, here is your chance.

Adventurexchange website - The way forward, any ideas?

I currently run an outdoor website for adventure enthusiasts called Adventurexchange . The website holds a database of outdoor enthusiasts and tries to link people with similar interests in the outdoors.

I also run a small outdoor shop (the pages of which are linked at the top of this blog).

I am looking for ideas from people on how I can promote the website and get additioal products listed on the shop.

If you are a distributor or you know a distibutor who stocks items that would fit well with the Adventurexchange shop, please let me know.

Similarly, if you have any ideas on promoting the Adventurexchange website, please drop me a line at jon.tucker@aone.uk.com

The better I make it, hoefully the better it helps other adventure enthusiasts.

Thanks,

Jon

2XU compression gear

Had the rep around the other day for 2XU compression gear.

All the clothing looked very high quality, and there is a fair amount of science behind it all, with most of the research being done by the AustralianSports institute.
2XU is the only manufacturer with "cicular knit technology", whhich means that the fabric does not stretch unevenly and retains its shape.
I think compression gear is going to be more and more popular. Hopefully we will get to stock it in the Adventurexchange shop.
One thing I didn't realise is that there is different compression gear for excercising and recovering.
