In this week's episode I rented a Lamborghini Huracan from Royalty Exotics in Las Vegas and drove out to the Hoover Dam to explore (side note, the Huracan had done 183,000 miles making it the highest mileage Lamborghini Huracan in the world!). I'm always looking for my next adventure and having visited Las Vegas many times before (perhaps too many...), I wanted to get off … [Read more...] about HOOVER DAM ROAD TRIP IN A LAMBORGHINI HURACAN

CATALINA ELECTRIC BIKE TOUR (ON STEROIDS!)
On a clear day looking out to sea from the beaches of Los Angeles you can see it, looming on the horizon.

I’M LEARNING TO FLY!!
I'm constantly looking for new challenges (and new modes of transport to learn to drive/ride/sail or fly!) so I decided that 2020 would be the year I got my private pilots license.

If you haven't already, please make sure you subscribe to my channel … [Read more...] about I’M LEARNING TO FLY!!
