Discover The Acura RL Its Pure Luxury

Monday, November 30th, 2009

In this report you will discover the Acura RL its pure luxury. When you think of luxury, do you also think about the features? The first step is finding out the prices followed by all of the interesting features the Acura RL has. We have the standard features as well as a couple of upgrades. This information will be of value to you when you purchase your next vehicle.

The Acura is available in eight exterior colors, and five exterior colors to choose from. The more to choose from, the better it is for you. You know what you like in a car, and what you really hate in a car, so that will help you make a decision. What I love are the leather seats, and the fact that they are standard in the Acura RL.

It is a must to have money before looking for a vehicle. Do you enjoy luxury cars, then you will probably like the Acura RL. You will have to pay about 47 thousand dollars for the basic editon of this car. Perhaps you are thinking about upgrading. We have what you need, the technology package. You will pay around 50 thousand dollars for that. The highest upgrade you can get with this Acura RL is called CMBS/ACC, and that runs about 54 thousand dollars.

What you get for the money. Beginning with the standard Acura RL, there are many surprises.. It comes with five speed automatic, voice recognition for climate control and audio. The engine is a nice sized 3. 7 liter vtec engine, with three hundred horse power. Leather seats, surround sound speakers, cd player. You also get an air filtration system for the air conditioner, and ipod and blue tooth cell phone interface. It’s loaded to the max!

The technology package would be a great upgrade. You get all the standard features plus, the technology package. The technology package is Acura link to weather and traffic reports, rearview camera, and traffic rerouting. You will also have temperature controls, GPS link as well as a solar system link. All of this plus six level heated and cooling front seats, and an active front lighting system.

The next upgrade is the CMBS/ACC package, with braking system. The CMBS/ACC is the Collision Mitigation Braking System, and Adaptive Cruise Control. These are both high end features for your vehicle. The CMBS is an especially wonderful safety system to have.

It is a personal decision how much you can afford for a luxury automobile. If the upgraded features are important to you, the first or second upgrade of the Acura RL is a perfect option. This car will hold six people, so it’s plenty big enough on the interior. This car has it all from A to Z.

The “high points’ of the vehicle are many. You choose the interior and exterior colors. The interior is purely luxurious. Price ranges from 47 to 54 thousand dollars. You get better upgrades as the price range goes up. The standard features are also a great value. The final step is going to a dealership and take a look and test drive an Acura RL.

Cheap Car Rental Tricks

Monday, November 30th, 2009

It is not that difficult to find cheap car rental. You just have to know all the tricks. Learn why it is better to rent the car in the weekend or for a week. Find out why you should prepay the car and how to get a free upgrade. Read about the right insurance and how to get a few extra hours for free.

The easiest way to save a lot of money is to compare the different car rental agencies’ prices. It would be very time-consuming to do it yourself, but fortunately car rental search websites has been constructed, so you just have to enter dates and location. Then you can see the cheapest price for the various car models.

It is possible for you to plan your vacation so you need the car in the weekend, you can often save a lot of money. Usually you can find special weekend offers at the car rental agencies.

Long term rental is another way to rent an inexpensive car. If you need a car for 4 or 5 days, you can often rent a car for a week for the same amount.

Do you want a larger car model? Then ask. The car rental agencies are willing to buy your loyalty by offering you extra service, so if you ask for an upgrade, they will normally give it to you, if it is possible. But do not plan your whole vacation (and your luggage) on it. Think about it as an extra bonus.

You can save a lot of money on the insurance. But be sure to read the policy closely, before you say no to the insurance. It can cost you a lot of extra money, if you are involved in an accident.

On the other hand there is a lot of extra, easy money to be earned for the car rental agencies on the insurance part of the car rental. So use your common sense and buy only the insurances you think you need.

Remember that a rental day is 24 hours. So if you e.g. arrive in the airport at 2 pm and have to leave at 5 pm, you can save a rental day by collecting the car a little later; or returning it a little earlier. Sometimes it is also possible to make a deal with the car rental agency, so you can keep the car a few extra hours for free

Finally it is a good idea to prepay the car. So instead of renting the car at arrival in the airport, you should find a good price on the Internet and book the car in advance. Then the car will also be ready for you, when you arrive in the airport.

How To Keep Yourself Sound While Traveling

Saturday, November 28th, 2009

Have you ever planned a trip weeks or maybe months in advance, however when the time comes to enjoy, you fall sick during the travel & have to spend your time solely in the hotel room? Naturally, this is something that no one wants to go through. In this article, I will share with you a a couple of tips for keeping yourself healthy at all times during your journeys to keep this unfortunate scenario from happening!

First, by doing some biking, aerobics or long walks, one is efficient to develop the muscles for those long trips. By finding info on the weather or climate so as to take the appropriate clothes for the journey & the condition of the drinking water are just some examples one can also work on. By purchasing water refining tablets before going to a place with distrust water origins, one is able to avoid getting any unwellness from the water.

If one is taking medicinal drug, it is best to pack adequate stock for the journey and must also check if the medication one is taking is allowed in the place where one is going to keep off any problems with customs duty.

It is best to have a good meal before going on a long jouney. Check-ins in airports is long & it will take some time before the airway gives the meals to its passengers.

On a long travel that could take hours by any mode of transportation, it is best from time to time to stretch or walk around to circulate the blood in the body. If you suffer from motion sickness while jaunting, it is also advisable to take the proper medication at least an hour before the trip for the medication to take effect.

Water is essential & if you are doubtful of the tap water available, it is best to order mineral water from the establishment.

By taking these essential precautions, you will be way ahead of most people in keeping yourself sound (and safe!) throughout your journey!

A Small Sense Of Freedom

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

Whenever a person or group of people try to live their lives free, those who are stuck in unhappy lives will be jealous. Some people have a hard time letting go, freeing themselves from the day to day trials and tribulations of everyday life even for a little while. Others seek an escape from the stress and anxiety often associated with modern day life.

I guess for me, that’s part of why I am a Biker. There is something about riding a bike that inspires a sense of freedom in me. The open road, the wind in my face, the smells, getting back to nature, the power of my bike. It’s all these things and more that make me feel free. It’s unfortunate that there are some people who, for whatever reason, can’t find something or someway to let go and experience the sense of freedom that we do. These people, for whatever reason, are the ones who point to us and call us rogues or rebels. They say that what we are doing is wrong and that our culture is a “disruptive influence.”

As Bikers, we live our lives a little differently. We work and have responsibilities, but we still know the feeling of freedom. Maybe its because we smile just a bit more and are a bit more relaxed that turns these people green with envy?

A person who works hard and has no free time sees a person on the road riding his or her motorcycle and thinks “I wish that was me!” The thought of being free doesn’t leave their mind. They long for it. They crave it badly! How many of you out their have had a friend tell you how they have always wanted to buy a Motorcycle and just go out riding? How many of them ever actually do?

Here is a typical story : A man is driving home from work when he see’s a group of motorcycle riders pull up next to him. He looks at this group of people riding together having a great time, He starts to think, “I wish that was me”. He then decides, “I’m going to buy a Motorcycle!” He starts thinking about riding. How great it will be to have his wife on the back of his bike and the wind in his face. We could ride up to the lake or maybe that little motel way up in the Mountains. Thinking of the great times he will have he starts to feel that small sense of freedom. He thinks “This must be what those Biker get to feel, Wow!”

He turns into the driveway, parks his truck and rushes into the house to tell his wife about his fantastic idea. “Hi honey, I’m going to buy a Motorcycle.” His wife looks at him and says “What? Did you get overwhelmed by the fumes at work again?” “You can’t ride a Motorcycle. The man answers back, “I’ll learn!”

“You must be crazy”, she says. “Those things are death traps! You will kill yourself and we can’t afford it!” “Honey this is something I really want” replies the man. “NO NO NO!!! I won’t have one of those things in my house! What kind of message would it send to the kids, our neighbors?”

They argue about it, but it the end, the man never gets his motorcycle. He never goes to the lake with his wife or takes that trip up to the little motel in the mountains. He never feels the real sense of freedom one can only get when taking a long trip on a motorcycle. He spends the rest of his life wishing he had never seen that group of Motorcycles. He is angry and bitter.

Now when he see’s Bikers he puts them down. He hates Bikers, not because of who or what they are, but because of what he can never be. He hates them because of what they represent. They represent a kind of freedom, sense of belonging, a oneness with nature and the world that he longs for, he craves, but can never have.

We live here in America, the home of the free, but many are not free. They have never experienced the sense of freedom that can only be experienced on two wheels and, for whatever reason, never will. They live boring, uneventful. “safe” lives and complain about those who don’t.

Don’t hate these envious people, pity them for they will never know the sense of freedom and brotherhood we get from riding with a group of our Bro’s. They’ll never know the wind in their face, the feeling of peace and oneness with nature we feel as we ride threw the country side or down a long lonely highway. They’ll never know the clarity of mind that comes from a long ride alone or the closeness and bond of a long ride or weekend away with someone special. Just thank your higher power that you’ve found a way to escape, a way to be free, even if for some it’s just on the weekends.

Ride Safe and Ride Free because when it all come down to it, this is all about the Ride!

No Colors Policies Are Un American And Illegal

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

A few weeks back I received an email from a girl Kim about a Charity Motorcycle event she was working on for Bide A Wee an Animal shelter I worked at when I was younger. As I read the info I was looking forward to attending the event only to find it was being held at Jugs and Strokers the only “Biker Bar” on Long Island that does not allow Motorcycle Club Colors. I was pissed to find out I would not be welcome at this event. I then saw the email had been sent out to many other Motorcycle Clubs on Long Island. Pissed Off, I started writing a reply to the email and sent it out to the MC’s here on Long Island. Here is what I wrote.

Hey everyone this is LJ James.

You may not know this but I worked at Bide A Wee in Wantagh for many years. I have some great memories of my time working there. As much as I love the place and think Bide A Wee to be a truly great organization, I will not take off my Colors to go inside Jugs & Strokers to attend this event.

I see this email is addressed to many different Clubs. Some of your beliefs may be different then mine and you may take your Colors off to attend this event. I would hope all of you have more respect for your Club then to do that, but these are my beliefs and may not be yours.

I think it is only fair to Kim who is working very hard for this very worthy cause that she know what your feelings are about the Jugs and Strokers policy in regards to Colors. Kim has spent a lot of time working on this event and I would hate to see her event fail because she is unaware of the Revulsion Jugs and Strokers has towards Motorcycle Clubs!!!

Not only is it an old out dated Policy that promotes the Division of Motorcycle Riders, it is also illegal according to NY State Law! I have been working hard to protect and promote Motorcycle Rights and Unity here in NY and world wide. I think it is time We started working hard to change what is wrong here on Long Island! There is an old saying, “if you want to fix the world start in your own back yard”.

This is an event that, when I heard about it I wanted to attend. Then I hear it is being held at Jugs and now I am “not allowed to attend”.

I am not a bad guy! You all out there know me. How many of your events have I covered in Magazines? How many of you have I DJed for? Not only your Club events but many of your personal family events! I’ve even preformed wedding ceremonies for a few of you and after I married you I Djed your wedding!!!

You too are also all good people. Your MCs have done many things to make Long Island a better place. You have fed the Hungry, Clothed the poor, and made sure every Child on Long Island had a Toy for the Holidays. Our patches stand for what is great about America! Why should we be made to feel that wearing our Colors is even the slightest bit wrong?

If you ask Jugs and Strokers, they might try to use the excuse “well its not your group its other groups who are the bad guys”. That is a cop out, a lie, and an attempt to divide the Long Island Motorcycle Club world!!!

Over the past few years here on Long Island we have seen a Unity in the Motorcycle Club World that many still can not believe. Sport Bike Clubs and Cruiser Clubs riding and hanging together. AMA Clubs and 1% Clubs attend each others events. Law Enforcement Clubs and Outlaw Clubs Breaking Bread and Drinking together at events. I have seen every type of rider hanging out together. This is the Biker dream people!!!

There was a time when we were all told that you could not have a bar on Long Island where all MCs where aloud to mingle together. That there would be nothing but fights and problems. Then JDs Place opened and shortly after that, the Myth was put to rest.

The Motorcycle World here on Long Island has become something We are all very proud of. I call out to all of you MCs, independents, and MROs like ABATE, it is time to end the humiliating practice that Jugs and Strokers has been aloud to inflict upon the Long Island Motorcycle World for far too long!!!

I am tired of this bar being allowed to claim it is a biker bar for bikers, but if your a member of a Motorcycle Club and wear your Colors, you are some how an undesirable, and unwelcome. I say time is up, Jugs and Stokers! You have made enough money off the Long Island Motorcycle world! You need to stop being part of the Problem and become part of the Solution!!!

I’m interested to know what the feelings are of the rest of you!!!

(Because of this reply, Shortly after I wrote this the event was switched to another Long Island Biker Bar “Sick Moon Saloon” That welcomes all who Ride)

Discrimination On The Basis Of Clothing Or Club Membership Is ILLEGAL Article I, Section 11 of the New York State Constitution states “that no person shall be denied the equal protection of the laws of this state or any subdivision thereof.” Article 4, Section 40 of the Civil Rights Law provides that “all persons within the jurisdiction of this state shall be entitled to the full and equal accommodations, advantages, facilities and privileges of any places of public accommodations, resort or amusement subject only to the conditions and limitations established by law and applicable alike to all persons.” The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that individuals have the constitutional right under the First Amendment to wear clothing which displays writing or designs. Cohen v. California, 403 US 15 (1971). In addition, the right of an individual to freedom of association has long been recognized and protected by the United States Supreme Court. Thus, a person’s right to wear the clothing of his choice, as well as his right to belong to any club or organization his choice is constitutionally protected, and persons or establishments who discriminate on the basis of clothing or club membership are subject to a lawsuit.

Self Drive New Zealand

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

Self drive holidays throughout New Zealand are an excellent holiday suggestion. The pristine scenery and low volumes of traffic in most areas enhance the driving opportunities. You will find many tours and routes that will allow you to experience the true wonder and beauty of the natural surroundings that New Zealand has to offer.

The main roads in New Zealand are all sealed and provide drivers with quality conditions. Most suburban roads are also sealed and you will find rural roads (some of which are unsealed) to be well sign posted. In some isolated and remote areas, the roads have been sculptured around the untouched natural backdrop of mountain ranges and forests. Therefore you may come across steep and winding roads.

When driving in New Zealand, you stay to the left hand side of the road. There are also some give way rules that may take some time to get familiar with, so make sure you study the road rules before you attempt to drive in New Zealand.

When you arrive into New Zealand your driver’s licence must be current, and must also be in English. If you do not have a current open drivers licence, you may find it difficult to find a car rental agent to hire you a car. If your licence is not in English, you may need to obtain an International Driving Permit before you arrive. You will be able to drive on New Zealand roads for up to 12 months with a current licence from your country of origin, or an international licence.

Staying alert whilst driving is so important and New Zealand roads have many stop over areas for drivers to get refreshed or have a rest. You will also find that service stations are situated in convenient positions and for the best advice, ask every time you fill up where the next petrol station is located.

Booking a rental car will come into the equation when planning a self drive holiday. In New Zealand, you will find that drivers are located on the right hand side of the hire cars. The hire car will allow you to drive when and where you please, and just by asking the friendly locals, you may find a little bit of paradise that the travel agents and tour guides may not be aware exists.

Researching on the internet will only enhance your New Zealand self drive experience. The New Zealand Land Transport website provides you with the road rules and any other relevant information you may require when driving. Please note that when researching your driving itinerary, it is also important to research what type car hire will be needed to best you, providing not only convenience but also comfort.

Renting A Car On A Budget

Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

So car hire prices have not dropped like they have in the other areas of the travel industry, but does that mean that you have to settle on an over inflated price for your next car hire? Absolutely not. There are many other options for finding the best possible deal on your car hire. The following are 5 of the best ways to pay less for a rental vehicle.

1. SHOP AROUND – Take the time to shop around for the deals. Don’t just limit yourself to looking online, but also call around to different rental agencies to see what type of specials they have and what the lowest rates are you can find. Don’t give up it is worth the effort for the savings you will find.

2. SEARCH FOR WEB DISCOUNTS – Take a few minutes to search the web, to see if there are any discounts or coupons that you can use for your rental. Again, these may be available to you, but you won’t know unless you take the time to look.

3. SMALLER IS BETTER – The smaller the car you can rent, the less expensive it will be. You should never rent a luxury car from a car rental company if you are traveling on a budget. It maybe nice to have heated leather seats if you are traveling to a colder climate, but it is definately not worth the expense. You should figure out which is the smallest car that you and your party can fit in, and try not to rent anything bigger than that. If you are traveling on a budget, smaller is better.

4. AVOID THE AIRPORT – If it is at all possible you should not rent a car at the airport. Car rental companies that have a rental center at the airport will charge more for cars rented and returned there then they do at a rental location that is not located at the airport. If it is possible you should try to get a taxi or shuttle service to your final destination, and make arrangements to rent a car there. This may also save you additional money if you do not need the car for the whole trip, since you don’t necessarily need to keep the car until your return flight.

5. DON’T PAY FOR THE MILES – If you are traveling a considerable distance from the airport, or plan on doing a lot of driving around while you are on your vacation then it is probably going to be less expensive to select the unlimite mileage option when renting your car. Unlimited mileage will definately cost you more when you are renting your car, but it is still a less expensive option then if you were to go over the mileage limit. If you think you are even going to come close to the mileage limit then choose the unlimited rate so you don’t have to pay for the extra miles.

Chauffeur Driven Automobiles Provide You A Smooth, Pleasurable Travel Experience

Saturday, November 21st, 2009

People who wish to add some grace to their looks and surroundings often opt for chauffeur driven cars. In fact, many would insist that having a chauffeur is the only way to have an enjoyable and smooth ride, especially in big cities.

A chauffeur allows you to stop worrying about all the unpleasant things that go with a road journey, such as constant braking due to traffic jams and red lights, and the hassles of parking a car. Some people believe that it is silly to spend so much for a chauffeur when a taxi, which costs much lesser, provides the same services.

But you should consider carefully before calling a taxi if you are visiting a city to meet someone important. One does not want others to think of him as a person without taste and class, especially when it comes to business clients and colleagues.

There is a chance that the taxi you end up hiring has an unmannered driver, who might also be untidy. There is a chance that the driver would talk without courtesy and would have a blaring music system, which can be disturbing if you want some peace before the meeting. Besides, you might just come out of the taxi smelling extremely bad.

A chauffeur driven car ensures that you get a good driver, who talks to you with respect and courtesy, and makes your travelling experience easy and relaxing. The comfort and luxury of being driven around by a polite and well-mannered chauffeur will put you in the right mood for your meeting.

Even if you need to give your client a ride, a chauffeur driven car is the best option as it is unlikely to let you down in any aspect. Your business associates are sure to be impressed with your elegance and style, and it will leave a positive impact on them.
