Ducati’s Diavel has been with us for over 10 years now.
In those 10 years I'venever ridden one, it's a bike that hasn't particularly caught my eye much, but I recently had the chance to have the new 1260 S on test so I thought I’d give it a go and see what all the fuss was about. All of the reviews I read have praised the Diavel so I must be missing out, let's see what it's all about.
Honda’s Africa twin is one of the most iconic adventure bikes ever made, first showing its face in the late ‘80s. Here we are in 2022 and The Africa Twin is still going strong and better than ever.
The Week UK magazine, positioned Carpathian Single Malt Whisky at the top of their ‘Tried & Tasted: 50 of the world’s best whiskies’. Their description “with its robust flavour and complex taste, this new world whisky is more like one from the old” sums up a product making waves in the whisky world.
One of our favourite stops during our Polestar 2 electric car tour was the Victoria Oxshott gastro pub.
This new gastro pub is set on a country road in a tiny village in Surrey. As you walk in there is a comfortable long bar to the right and assorted dining rooms off to the left, furnished in oak, green wood panelling and light brown chesterfield sofas and chairs. Plenty of stoves and open fires add colour and ambience.
Colour me surprised as the Polestar 2 is dropped off at my garage. It is actually a good-looking animal. A solid, relatively low SUV come hatchback with sharp, carved haunches. It has a certain presence.
We toured around Surrey to fully appreciate its capabilities, taking in a very fine Gastro pub along the way, the Victoria Oxshott.
This summer’s all about the big, the bold and the brightest. Made to withstand the pressures of a sporting life with style.

Seacave Kayak and Snorkel Tour Javea
The Mercedes EQS 450+ is the first truly luxurious electric car. Mercedes has put everything into this, their new flagship, building the electric platform from scratch rather than adapting an S-Class. Think of this as a fully realised concept car with no compromise. Mercedes laying out their stall for the next few years with a luxury limousine that drives like a hatchback.
I've wanted a black leather biker jacket with a red lining ever since my early teenage years.
Back then I was a bit of a rocker with a hint of goth and was already sneaking into pubs and clubs to watch bands.
