    used to be a time when the gangs had a police escort (or at least tail) every where they went. was quite common as a young fella in the BOP to see the locals heading put of town in a group with a police car following. ahhhh them were the days

    Hhahahaha...remember stopping at Punakiki for a pee , and moving our jappa bikes away to a safe distance as a convoy of police cars and one of the Sth Island bike gangs pulled in. And away in the distance a lone jappa bike appears, pulls in and parks up right in the middle of the gang. Wee jap bloke, leather pudding bowl helmet, Hiro Hito glasses and squinty eyes, speaking not a word of english - but it was his bike that stole the show - and the admiration of the bikies. An absolute mint Honda 305 dream. The guy either had no idea of why the police escorted them around or had elephant balls (and probably a wicked martial arts background!).

    The best blame journalism I've seen was in the States a while back. A group of motorcyclists had stopped in a queue at a red light. A garbage truck slams into them from behind, killing three and injuring six others. The resulting CBS news report:

    "Three people were killed Thursday afternoon and six others critically injured when several motorcycles collided with a truck hauling garbage on the Carefree Highway in north Phoenix.../...the accident happened when the riders got too close to the big rig."

    Yeah, or like the American cops who beat the crap out of a guy and then charged him with damaging government property 'cause he got his blood on their uniforms.

    I don't consider Stuffed news. It's a site for attracting and encouraging low life readers by starting firey debates and biased opinions to generate attention. It's a fricking circus for people who wants scandals, controversies and who to blame (e.g. VW was this weeks special).

    I think it was last week: I read an "opinion" article about how some guy in Auckland owns over 100 houses at age of 30 or something. Hell, why the fuck would you report on that shit at the peak of Auckland's real estate crisis? What purpose does it gain apart from site traffic rates? You don't post shit like that for the "news".

    Their Fuckbook page is even worse. It's like tossing a piece of meat to a pack of hungry stray dogs. Fuck fairfax.

    Technically they did.


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    I clearly remember those times, cars would have to pull over and let them past. I guess the cops were there to make sure they kept moving and to have some sort of control over the situation.
