Land Rovers = Off Road


[STORM TROOPER WHITE... DROOL!]
I opted to join Marc et al last Sunday to go off roading in relatively nearby Tanay, Rizal. Boy was I glad I did. It was a great experience and a real eye opener on what the LRs could really do. We crossed creeks, rivers, rocks, dirt, sand, mud, gravel, foilage and at wild speeds and impossible angles at times, impressive machines and driving. We took a dip in the river, something I haven't done in more than 10 years, brought back a lot of good 'ol camping memories. Marc packed a great 'picnic' we had steaks, corn, chickboy adobo [that's chicken and baboy], fresh buko juice [from the tree baby], and of course Marc's freshly made pesto penne. We then did an intermediate run on 'SPONGEBOB' [that's the name of the vehicle], I was hanging on for dear life and was being tossed around like a rag doll but it was an adrenaline rush too see what you were trying to traverse or what you already have [if you look back]. Fish/squidballs, pandesal and corn beef and red wine for merienda.

While they were eating merienda I took the FR2 for a very short drive. I think I'm in love with the STORM TROOPER white LAND ROVER FREELANDER2 TURBO DIESEL 4. The suspension and the drive was so nice, and don't get me started with the interiors! ANG GWAPO LANG TALAGA EH!!!

Good company, amazing stories, off the hook food, and of course awesome machines... Such a great experience.

SPECIAL THANKS TO: CRAM and JO, you guys made my weekend!
