Columbus Marathon to offer limo rides to finish line for those who drop out

black_limo

The Columbus Marathon in Ohio has announced an unusual service for those runners who are unable to finish the race.

Race Director, Darris Blackford, has revealed that a luxurious 12-seater chauffeur driven limo will be on standby to whisk the stragglers off to finish line so they can complete the marathon with their heads held high.

The 26.2 mile marathon is regarded as one of the top 25 races in the US and is now in its 31st year. The annual race attracts runners from all over the States and further afield, with 5,000 competitors expected to take part in this year’s race on October 17th.

Runners who are unable to complete the 26 mile trek are usually picked up by a bus and taken to the finish line, however Mr Blackford thinks the competitors deserve better than a miserable ride in the back of a school bus, something which he’s experienced himself in previous years.

The chauffeur driven limo is meant to boost the spirits of runners who may feel disappointed about having to drop out of the race. The new service is part of the newly appointed race director’s mission to make the experience more enjoyable for all of those who take part, or partially take part, as might be the case.

F1 Champion Lewis Hamilton slapped with a driving fine

Lewis-Hamilton

Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton has escaped from his Australian driving misdemeanour with a fine following a court hearing this week.

The 25-year-old McClaren driver was arrested back in March of this year after he was caught by police performing driving stunts in front of fans on a public highway. Lewis was in Melbourne ahead of the Australian Grand Prix, he was arrested just two days before the event began.

The luxury car the champion driver had been caught performing tricks called “burnouts” and “fishtails” in was impounded following Lewis’s arrest. He was driving a borrowed silver Mercedes vehicle when police swooped on the driver after he was seen performing driving stunts outside of the Grand Prix race track in Albert Park.

The case came to court this week, with the F1 driver entering a guilty plea after admitting improper use of a motor vehicle.

Racing driver Lewis avoided conviction as it was his first offence. Lewis was not present in court this week but instead pleaded guilty to the charge through his solicitor. In court, Lewis’s solicitor read out a statement from the driver which described how the incident had affected him saying he’d felt “embarrassment, humiliation and distress” following his arrest in Australia.  

The F1 star, who reportedly earns £20 million a year, was handed down a fine of $423 Australian dollars, which works out as approximately £288.

Tiger Woods to apologise publically

Golf star Tiger to issue an apology

Golf star Tiger to issue an apology

Golf star Tiger Woods is to make a public appearance to apologise for his recent infidelities during a meeting in Florida tomorrow his agent has announced.

Only a select group of friends, colleagues, reporters, and 3 news channels will be present at the appearance. Tiger’s agent has stressed that this is not a press call and that the golfer will not be answering questions from the media.

Speaking through his agent, the 34-year-old golfer is said to feel the need to apologise to his fans and those close to him who may have felt “hurt and let down” by his behaviour. Although he added that the matter is fundamentally between him and his wife, Tiger wants to draw a line under the whole sex scandal and move on, and issuing a public apology is a positive step in this direction.

The sportsman, who is married to Swedish model Elin Nordgen, is said to be working hard behind the scenes to try and his marriage in light of the extramarital affairs. The couple have two young children between them.

Tiger is currently taking a break from the professional world of golfing whilst he concentrates on his private life. There has been no official word from the golfer himself since the news broke about his multiple affairs back in November of last year.

Car Hire in South Africa receives a boost from the upcoming Football World Cup

The Fifa World Cup is good news for car rentals in South Africa

The car hire industry in South Africa has noted an upturn in its fortunes of late. A successful festive period coupled with the upcoming football World Cup has meant that car hire companies are starting to turn the corner following the economic crisis which blighted the industry last year.

The Christmas holiday season proved a very good time for the car hire companies operating in South Africa, with a big increase in bookings noted, especially around coastal areas. One car rental firm said that they were so overwhelmed with demand for their cars, that at one point, they completely ran out of vehicles.

The figures speak for themselves. The chef executive at Europcar South Africa says there has been a marked rise in the number of tourists visiting the country. Although the figures are not up to the level they were before the economic downturn hit, they are considerably higher than this time last year. Also the domestic leisure industry reported a 12% increase during this Christmas period which is another encouraging sign.

The upcoming Football World Cup is another contributory factor towards the increase in car hire bookings. The world famous event is due to descend upon South Africa this summer bringing thousands of football fans with it. Car hire companies have noted a surge in bookings for this time as the games draw closer. Some firms have vowed to add new vehicles to their fleet of hire cars on order to cope with demand when the World Cup comes to town.

Footie fans who leave limos outside Arsenal Stadium could be served with ASBOs

Parking you limo outside the Emirates Stadium could leave you with an ASBO

Council officials want to clamp down on the number of rich Arsenal fans who leave their stretch limos in side streets outside the Emirates Stadium by issuing them with ASBOs.

The problem has got so bad that as many as 40 luxury limousines have been cramming up the small streets around the area in Holloway on match days. Often chauffeurs are left to sit inside the vehicle with the engine running for the entire match, much to the annoyance of local residents.

However after a decision was made at a recent council meeting, officials are hoping to use Anti Social Behaviour Orders to prohibit limo companies from parking on the small streets. The ASBOs would be issued to “companies whose vehicles are responsible for this selfish, environmentally unfriendly, and dangerous behaviour”.

Arsenal club officials and players all have their own parking spaces inside the ground so the nuisance limos are said to belong to wealthy fans, and corporate guests who usually watch the match from a box. When you hire a box, you are also given a parking space, however some fans are reluctant to use the space as the vehicles are not allowed to leave the ground until the roads are open again, an hour after the match ends. Alternatively, if a limo is parked outside, they can leave immediately.

In the past the council has tried to combat this problem by issuing parking tickets but this has not proved an effective deterrent as the limo owners are so wealthy that the cost of parking fine hardly registers.

The council is now investigating whether they can legally hand out ASBO’s to offending limo drivers.

US limo chauffeur left to clear up after drunken baseball star’s antics

baseball star Sean West in trouble with limo chauffeur

A US limo hire chauffeur from Philadelphia is furious after one of the biggest rising stars of baseball, Marlin’s pitcher Sean West, fled from his luxury limo after one of the many women he was escorting threw up in the back of his stretch. Unfortunately for the baseball player, the limo chauffeur known as Big Penny, is a fearsome man and he’s none too pleased with him.

According to Big Penny the Marlin’s player from Miami sought refuge in the back of his limo after starting a fight at popular Philadelphia nightspot, G Lounge. He managed to run the gauntlet through the group of Philadelphia supporters he’s rubbed up the wrong way and hopped into the back of Big Penny’s waiting limo. Except he didn’t come alone. The baseball star obviously fancies himself as a bit of a ladies man and dragged along not one, not two, but 5 ladies for company.

However it seems his company may have been his downfall as one of the ladies proceeded to vomit all over the back of the expensive limousine. Big Penny stopped the limo to throw the party out after this but smooth talking Sean West managed to persuade the chauffeur against this, assuring him he had “a lot of money” and would compensate him for the mess.

Although once they arrived back at their hotel West did his second disappearing act of the night and went inside the hotel to get some towels and products to help clear up the mess, and never returned.

A word of warning for Sean West, avoid Philadelphia for a while, Big Penny is on the rampage.
