:oi-grr:

To those of you that enjoy the thursday night and weekend rides that pass down Peak rd towards SH16 Please slow down!

i am appauled by the group on thursday nights in particular. there are large sections of the road that are 80k ! past the kindy ! the straight after the church!

engage your brains the 80k area's are there for a reason and you are giving the rest of us that use these roads a really bad name.

it is impossible for some of us to safely exit our driveways on bikes or in cars with you idiots doing 140+ through blind sections of the road. the entry onto peak rd from SH16 is not a corner to get your knee down! it leads into the 80k area.

someone is going to get killed!

I personally have never seen anyone 'get their knee down' on the corner at the top of Peak Road. If you are seeing people getting their knee down going from SH16 on to Peak Road then it's not the ATNR ride as we go the other way (Old North - Peak - SH16 - Kahikatia)

My recent experiences have been that the ride is being conducted barely braking the speed limit, and the 80kmh areas in particular are adhered to - more so because that's where the cops are likely to hide and ping riders. It's not perfect, but it's a far cry from 2006/2007 when it was literally almost a race to the pub and it wasn't uncommon for over half of the group to do parts of the ride at well over 200kmh.

Dont blame the ATNR, we religiously do 80kph down that hill since its been an 80kph area due to the ginga.

Given that a cyclist was killed there recently, todays Harold advises even more police will be in the Peak Rd/SH16 doing stops for info about the white ute involved in the death. All would be well advised to slow down or avoid the area.....

great to hear that you are watching the speed limits around there. believe me when i say i don't want to see anyone hurt.

i know the way the ride goes, but i am sure that the same riders also pass back down the road.

the police were out there yesterday morning at about 10am breath testing everyone on peak rd. while talking to them they bought up the need to police the whole area heavily on thursday nights because of "Kiwibikers highspeed run". so i would say you guys will meet them regularly over the next few months.

there could be older kids using the playground though. i know a lot of kids use school playgrounds outside of hours, so no reason why they wouldnt use a kindy in the same way.

Hey, not only the kids, I have a property on ONR, not far from the Peak Rd intersection, and I quite often see you guys hurl past at "barely over the speed limit" (I do it too, where I can...)

I ride that road every day, I also drive a tractor over the highway most evenings, sometimes on the blind brow outside the gate, and believe me you have NO chance of surviving a collision with big red.

All I'm saying is ride to the condiions and the visable road in front of you.

Au contraire-Ignorance of the Hazzard county coppers standard MO paints you as a puppy. The officer in question is a lying mofo; the ATNR is practically dead and at the very least has been very quiet over the winter months.

Check the ATNR thread yourself http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=33348&highlight=atnr

Educate yourself on Hazzard county copper behaviour http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=102482

Next time you see the officer you can tell him he's full of shit, tell him I said so.

I think your missing the point, the local copper is at the very least treating the truth recklessly by accusing KBers of riding well over the limit, you in turn [based on said coppers BS] have come on line to give us a serve.
You must feel a little silly?.....An apology would clear the air donchya think?

It's a funny how I regularly ride that road & regularly curse the cyclists riding in bunches around the area the cyclist was killed, I have lost count of the times I have had to cross the centre line to pass those arrogant clowns as they cycle up the hill towards the accident site showing no consideration to other road users.
Last Sunday & surprise , surprise, the cyclists [ prob 20 ] are all riding up the hill spaced out & in single file.

There are some absolute clowns riding through that road on both powered & pedal power two wheelers. It was & matter of when not if someone got killed, although the deceased seems to have been extremely unlucky & the victim of some very poor driving.

Don't be sure that the same riders also pass back down the road - they don't.

We see cops, almost without fail, on every Thursday night ride.
There is no Kiwibikers high speed run and hasn't been for years now.
... Urban Myth.

250cc fours just sound like they are going fast when pulling 15,000 revs.

Oh that would be because there are no kindies, school's, church's, diveways, cyclists, cops, 50 & 70 k zones etc around coro aye??

We all live around public roads, ok there are bound to be a few that get carried away here and there, but given the recent history of coro loop (and while ACC are pissing people off) do you really think that encouraging all the hoons into one area will solve any problems? Think of what the residents of coro deal with.

You're full of shit because you have no idea what goes on on the ATNR. You're full of shit because fuck all - if any riders return that way. You're full of shit because you believe what the cops told you and he's full of shit. So you're the ignorant fool.


Those roads just happen to be used by 100s of motorcyclists. A little secret - not all motorcyclists are members of KB and most don't give a shit about "your" road. So if I feel like speeding down your road I shall do so - in fact, now that I know, I'll make a point of it.

I see your point (special)jimmy. However your are making a most uneducated presumption that is ultimately wrong by being too late!
The atnr is very well behaved these days and as said earlier it was 06/07 that it was naughty.
So many bikes head down that road. Atnr only goes(apparently at high speeds:oi-grr:) to the pub which is in one direction.

I have worked for some of the locals on the straight(near the church) on peak rd. They mainly complain of the cars. Boy racers and middle aged people with V8 holdens that treat this part of the road like a drag strip.

So it seems that while you may want to whinge at the atnr people, it is actually much much bigger than you could imagine.

Gingaas a cock..

You cant tell motorcyclists to behave themselves on kb, you will just get ridiculed.

Doesnt matter if there were 30 motorcyclists out of 100 speeding past there that were on kb, you would just get the big finger.

Watch however, if a biker comes across one car driver doing something stupid and then proceeds to blast all car drivers with the rest of kb rising in an uproar of support. Or of a bike making a mistake and ALMOST losing it, coming in here and stating woah, I almost lost it and then going out and not doing shit about changing their riding style. Motorcycling isnt like a self regulating profession. There are no rules and the collective does not monitor its own. Doesnt matter though because we are socially responsible, us motorcyclists, cos we use less gas and less space. That gives us the right to fuck around on the roads at ridiculous speeds. Which in my opinion is socially irresponsible thus negating the social responsibilty points we just scored before:dodge:

Socially irresponsible - what the hell are you on about?
99.9% of the time when a biker fucks up he/she only injures themselves. What I do to my self is none of your fucken business. Sticking your nose into my business and trying to tell me what I can and can't do to myself is socially irresponsible.

Kids are at kindy on a Thursday night?
Well in that case I'll slow down to 80kph for the kindy then. That way if I hit and kill anyone it will be ok, because I wasn't exceeding some arbitrarily imposed limit.

I dont care if you kill yourself mate doing something stupid, but other people use roads, hooning around them doesnt run the risk of hurting just the motorcyclist. A bike hitting a car or anything else at speed isnt like a bicycle hitting something. Motorcycles carry quite a bit of mass and do some horrendous damage.

Im not butting into what you want to do, but the line gets drawn at a certain point. I reckon it should be when motorcyclists start riding recklessly on the road for a bit of an adrenaline rush.

See I told you any opinion to the contrary get ridicule and angry replies. Its the kb way, opinions arent allowed. You seemed so reasonable when I met you in person and a pretty good dude, we actually agreed on stuff. I might have to re think that now.

At this point in time I'd suggest you accept what they are saying as truth and just leave it at that.
I'd also like to suggest you take yourself out to the end of one of the straights on peak road and watch for a couple of hours --say from 6.45-8.45 on a thursday. You'll be genuinely suprised by what you see.

Re-think what the fuck you like. That's the kind of guy I am, I won't try and impose my will on you.

Sure a bike *can* do some horrendous damage. There are sooooo many thing that *can* go wrong in this world. You must have nightmares thinking of them all.
Reality however is somewhat different. Lets have a bit of reality shall we.
Do you exceed the speed limit, ever? If so you're a hypocrite, if not you're a liar.

Note in both my posts I dont state anything about breaking the speed limit by a little. I am talking about when motorcyclists blatantly exceed the speed limit by great margins. No I do not have nightmares about the dangers in this world, but I do not by any accounts mean to inflate my chances and the chances of others to get hurt.

Yes, I have gone over the speed limit, but never to the speeds written about so often on this site. If it is an 80 zone then I stick to 80. If I see a kindy in the eight zone then drop it below eighty. It is when we read that some road user was speeding gratuitously, resulting in not only his/her death but the injury and/or deaths of others that we have to think about our attitude to the road. I doubt the last thing going through their victims head was "oh it was his free right to do what he wanted, Im glad no one told him to stop and think about what he is doing, or to slow down".

And we wonder why it is we have such a high road toll. It is this populations behaviour and attitude on the road. Not only riders but car drivers as well!

The kindy kids are "precious lambs" and thus are delivered to and from the kindy by 4x4.I live in the area and have never seen one child.

The 80 kmph limit was put in to place to keep whining residents happy,because they like to drive out of their properties and toddle off up the road at 30 kmph.
They complained that "maniacs would come screaming up behind them and run off the road" and no,they weren't obstructing the public highway.It's their right to drive like a cock.

If I see a kindy in the eight zone then drop it below eighty.
Not being a smartalec here but I ask you WHY?
A kindy unlike a school requires the kids to be locked away in an escape proof cage similar to the zoo or parry prison. (He says looking out his window at the kindy across the road.
If a littlie wanders on the road theres a heck of a lot bigger issue than if you are going slightly over or under 80km/h in a 80km/h zone.
Also even the very best/most generous kindy only operates from 7.30am till 6.00pm, outside of these hours there are no kids there.

I suspect that in not too many years time with the loop motorway in that peak will be another urban road like upper harbour drive

The section past the kindy was already subdivided before the limit was lowered.
The section past the church has two nice speed trap hidy-holes,one at each end,so the cops probably arranged the lower limit on that one to optimise tax take.

I once got pinged down that hill at 172. It wouldve been a lot quicker too had my bike not had the 180 restrictor still in at the time.

Ive spent a good few hours sat on the side of the road, 50ks from home in the middle of winter on that intersection.

A lot of others have the same story, and hence we do not speed on the ATNR, and we pay very special attention to that 80kph speed limit.

Well i'll tell you how it doesn't work instead - beyond that have a word with MT or spankme.
It doesn't work my me conforming to what anyone thinks I should conform to that's for sure. The day I stop thinking for myself is the day I will be like special jimmy and ital916. Unable to think for themselves and reliant on the govt for guidance on social responsibility.

What speeds are they. The only people talking about "those" speeds are Katman, dipshit, special jimmy and yourself (elite company you keep there). You're making this shit up to suit your argument. If you stopped making it up you would have no need to address the "problem".

And we wonder why it is we have such a high road toll. It is this populations behaviour and attitude on the road. Not only riders but car drivers as well!

Statistics show that when they introduced an open road speed limit in the Northern Territory (where you could previously do any speed you wished on the outback roads) that the death toll increased.

The road toll is caused due to bad driving and bad decisions, not due to speeding.

again your showing your immaturity. this topic is about getting people to slow down.

you threatened to now go even faster, since someone was asking the masses to show good judgement and slow to a suitable (legal) speed in a couple of area's that are dangerous at high speed.

so a couple of us are now questioning if you are infact sound in the head enough to get on a bike? (it's ok, i don't even need a reply to that last bit as i already have made up my mind)

What someone says on the internet, and what they do in real life are almost always two completely different things.

Who's irrational? You took the word of a cop who described the ATNR as the 'kiwibiker high speed run' as being gospel.

Social responsibility falls on the people who make up society, with the free will to act as they choose to do so. I'm guessing you were keen on Uncle Helen telling you that you couldn't have a fancy shower head because it used too much water? Or perhaps you drive a Prius because that is what the government told you was 'socially responsible'.

Suggesting a Frontal Lobotomy is socially irresponsible... what gives you the right to take away someones ability to lead a 'normal' life simply because they don't agree with your single track way of thinking. THAT is the exact reason that frontal lobotomies have been outlawed. Do you have any idea how many 'normal' kids were given sedated and completely screwed up lives simply because they didn't fit with the 'norm' of how a child should act.

Stick a screwdriver up behind your eye and wriggle it around, i'm sure that people speeding past a kindy at 7:30pm will be the least of your worries. Don't forget to wipe your ass.

Ah now you've gorn and dune it aye Stranger! The katman is in da house.
Special Jimmy, for crying out aloud, no single group or KB Social group has exclusive rights to any particular section of road, anywhere.
I ride with many KB members under several different Social group banners, I've ridden Peak road with everyone of those groups.
I'm sure that there are many other riders out there who have absolutely nothing to do with KB who also regularly ride Peak Road.
You have been told repeatedly by those who have replied to your original post that in particular the ATNR guys and girls obey the speed limits in that area.
You've managed to get off side with all but one of the people replying to you.
An arguement is no longer an arguement when one side or the other resorts to personal insult and slaging off.
Last night I attended the BRONZ meeting, over 200 motorcyclists attended that meeting, I saw no evidence of moronic behaviour before, during or after that meeting.Your blanket assumption that all KB'ers (in particular) are besotted with speed and danger is totally wrong.
Frosty invited you to go watch the road between the hours of 6.45 and 8.45 or thereabouts, on a Thursday night, I hope you did tonight!
Your apology to the ATNR will be interesting to say the least.
I look forward to seeing it soon.

i watch the ride every thursday night.

Not being a smartalec here but I ask you WHY?
A kindy unlike a school requires the kids to be locked away in an escape proof cage similar to the zoo or parry prison. (He says looking out his window at the kindy across the road.
If a littlie wanders on the road theres a heck of a lot bigger issue than if you are going slightly over or under 80km/h in a 80km/h zone.
Also even the very best/most generous kindy only operates from 7.30am till 6.00pm, outside of these hours there are no kids there.

The kindy is a red herring.It's in a rural area with no footpaths and down a long driveway.Any kid that manages to escape its warders,get down the drive and out on the road is probably named Steve Queen.The child is just as likely to drown in the road side ditch as get onto the road itself.

Nothing wrong with going 100kph over a one-way bridge if nobody is trying to come the other way. A couple of those one-way bridges out that way you have huge visibility and it's absolutely fine.

I mean, yes, there are some riders who ride far too fast on that road, a few have ended up walking home , a lot more have had their wallet dented.
The biggest problem I see on that road are push bike riders who show absolutely no consideration for other road users. I could not count the number of times I have come across groups of cyclists on Peak Rd riding 3 or even 4 abreast through the area in which the Dr was killed & the approach to Helensville. They want 1.5 m clearance which puts a motorcyclist on the wrong side of the road when passing them , or worse you find a car coming around a corner on your side of the road trying to pass cyclists.
More people will die on that road , some motorcyclists are at fault, a far greater number of push bike riders need to clean up their act.

yes push bike riders on the rd are damn dangerous. they really do need to sort their shit out. it is bloody scary coming across a bunch of them without expecting them to be there.

but i keep reminding myself on that rd, especially in the weekend that you have to be able to stop in the distance you can see. either in a car or on a bike.

that rd is going to claim more lives in my opinion. at least until the zoning changes and the whole north end of the rd turns into a 50km area.

but then people here will still speed in the 50k area and tell everyone that it is not their fault :bash:

Not another speed limit reduction. Peak Rd is rural and should have speed limits as such. 50 KM on that stretch of road would be ludicrous and just inviting users to break the law. If speed limits are to be respected then they need to be appropriate. Taupaki Rd is another Rd with a ridiculous speed limit and an equally ridiculous intersection. A speed limit is the upper limit. You still ride/drive at a speed appropriate to the circumstances and conditions.

Yeah,the one that gets me is the coro. Funny how a lot fo the motorway sections in auckland are 80, yet you get to coro and there is a 100 speed limit on the coast road heading to coro town, shortly after the start of which there is a 35km/h corner :crazy:.

27th October 2009, 15:53
Would you prefer that the whole stretch of road before that was 35kmh? Perhaps they could put sign posts at suitable intervals back from the corner advising you of a max safe speed so that you know when to start braking in order to slow down for the 35kmh corner?

The simple rule that applies is that you should be able to stop in the visible distance in front of you. If you miss the fact that there is a 35kmh corner coming up, you are not paying enough attention.

To those of you that enjoy the thursday night and weekend rides that pass down Peak rd towards SH16 Please slow down!

i am appauled by the group on thursday nights in particular. there are large sections of the road that are 80k ! past the kindy ! the straight after the church!

engage your brains the 80k area's are there for a reason and you are giving the rest of us that use these roads a really bad name.

it is impossible for some of us to safely exit our driveways on bikes or in cars with you idiots doing 140+ through blind sections of the road. the entry onto peak rd from SH16 is not a corner to get your knee down! it leads into the 80k area.

someone is going to get killed!

Isn't the majority of the coastal road under an "open road" or whatever it's called sign i.e. not 100kph as such. Meaning sure the limit is 100kph but not at all the recommended and one should drive to each corner.

They can't change the legal speed limit for every different corner and straight!!! That's why it's an open road sign!

Peak Road is patrolled on a fairly regular basis . I have seen speed cameras, Two people I know of have been stopped on the hill coming down to the church , one ended up walking , one did no. Saw another rider pinged on the long uphill stretch after the golf course. Have not seen the cops set up opposite the end of Peak Rd for a while, they used to catch the guys gassing it down the hill.
Have seen the results of two motorcyle accidents 1 x moderately bad , 1 not so bad, also seen a few pretty second hand cars in the ditch at various points
This has been over a period of 5 years riding that road most Sundays.
There has been the occasional absolute clown on a motorbike but most are not too bad imho.

Was he a Ginga by any chance? FWIW, there are already enough cops on SH16 when they need to be there. If the cops aren't already there on their own accord then obviously there haven't been any serious events which have required their constant attention. The ATNR gets targeted every now and again - but by using simple psychology the cops don't actually have to be there EVERY Thursday in order for people to slow down and take it easy.

I'm just trying to push home the point that motorcyclists need to think about what they are doing and realise, that just cos you can doesnt mean you have to. You may realise that but the motorcycling world doesnt start and end with you. There are a large percentage of motorcyclists who dont consider the repercussions of their actions when on their motorcycle.

I dont hold anything against the atnr and find that stephen and dawn have done a great job of keeping it in check. I was referring more to the attitude that many motorcyclists have.

We do a thorough training program to all who come to us as you would know, I personally know hundreds of people on this site they can be the judge about my character or how much of a wanker i can be or am. I don't preach to others how to ride or when to slow down. We also organise lots of rides on this forum we dont dish other peoples rides. We are all adults and know when do wrong on the roads. I dont tolerate shitheads and make no apologies. I am no different than "The stranger" who does ride right courses, we are just people who love and ride bikes. I wont be told what the fuck to do or how to ride i am entitled to a opinion and have said my piece in this thread.

sure. of course you (and i) are entitled to an opinion.
and yes of course you can ride how you like.

i can't believe that someone that runs courses on how to ride seems so intent on rubbishing someone that is talking about keeping below the speed limit.

surely you don't teach people to go what ever speed they like with complete disregard of imposed speed limits?

The point is
You assumed it was a kiwibiker

No point having a group ride guide if no one has the common sense to use it.

Thank you, my point exactly throughout the entire thread.
Motorcyclists DO need to think about what they are doing. Not you and not special jimmy telling them what to do. That is not thinking, that is someone thinking for them and from the looks of this thread you and jimmy the rat thinking for them is down right dangerous.

Again, spot on. You can't impart common sense into someone, and we can all be very thankful of that one because I sure as fuck don't want what you and jimmy the rat think passes for common sense.
If you don't use it you lose it, people should exercise common sense and thus develop it. This is not achieved by some sanctimonious cock telling them what to do.

Excellent. Please ask them to ensure that they put all their officers onto patrolling Peak Rd. Must catch those speeders, and the only way to do it is blanket patrolling.

Part of the reason Hazzard county is stung so viciously by highway patrol is the staffing level held in and around Orewa. Police staff levels are arguably to high and general crime unquestionably low........The coppers struggle to justify their own existence [and transference to south orckland!], area commander/s must certainly come under pressure to justify numbers!

had a couple years off.

then got a kx125 to get back into offroad, then a kx250, rmz250,

then wanted a road bike so got a drz400sm, borrowed a zxr636 for 6mths when a friend went overseas.

The thread is NOT attempting to achieve a degree of repsonsibility.
Instead, jimmy the rat is trying to impose his idea of responsibility on a group of people by repeatedly and beligerantly ranting raving and berating those who disagree with his one eyed perspective - that being he has some higher ground in the responsibility, wisdom or morality stakes and thus we should all listen to him and do as he says.

You did start the thread didn't you. Are you saying that it was not your idea to do so? If not yours, then who's? someone else in your head is there? I bet you just wish those voices would stop.

You are arguing repeately and vehemently in support of your idea (assuming it is yours of course). Like it or not that is an imposition.


if you didn't already know, 90% of the population would agree with me that reckless motorcycle riding is not responsible.

So, who's advocating reckless motorcycle riding.
My point has always been and I have repeated it many times - personal responsibility. No - read those 2 words again jimmy. plug them into google and see what they mean. reckless and responsible are antonyms not synonyms jimmy.

your such a twat stranger, i am imposing my idea of responsibility? take your hand off it!

I love how you keep assuming that those who don't like your tone must advocate hooning and ride recklessly above the speed limit themselves :lol:

I don't agree with you calling me an idiot, nor with you telling me how or how not to ride... So why would I agree with you?

But you're not a very agreeable person. Quite disagreeable, in fact

It was obvious to many of us from the start that you found the concept of personal responsibility obtuse. That you now acknowledge your problem you have started your first steps toward rehabilitation. I feel we are genuinely making progress now.
