Not to sure if it was kbers or not, but the fucken idiots riding back from Welsford,{Sunday arvo} just down from the look out decided to cut the blind corner and hello I happen to be coming round the other way....Evasive action was taken and no accident happened however there must of been at least 7 of them with 3 crossing the forbiddin white line...If you cant ride at speed safely on your side of the road DONT FUCKEN SPEED, SAVE IT FOR THE TRACK............

I was home by 1pm so if it was KB it would be not much after 12.30 ish I am picking.

I did see a biker coming the other way shaking his/her head. Cant have been too far from the spot you mentioned TC.

Yep,their all great riders/drivers,but they can't even keep it between the lines.
See it every work day an more on the weekends,seems to be a national obsession. :no:

Sure,no one keeps left,they all hug that centre line - but I see so many parked cars that have had huge shunts up the bum,maybe we don't want them keeping left either....woe is me,what can be done!

What a fuking load a shit........ NOTHING should be comming at ya thats why theres a centerline, bikers often complain about cars over the center line.... well IMHO bikers are as bad at it I ride with a few of them... and I get up them about it too... I dont ever want to pick another mate up of the road thank you, keep it on OUR side of the road.... including ya body.

FWIW kohi/placid..... I have one mate dead and another with only one leg..... they both hit a bike oncoming that was on THEIR side of the road on the way to the Brass. :mad:

Awhitu Road strikes again.
I forgot about this one when I was having a bleat about Sundays effort.
About six months ago a couple on a bike was side swiped by a car up there.
I havn't heard any more about it,but the rider lost a leg.
What can ya' say ? :oi-grr:

They were both doing over 100mph...

Hey fair enough Topcut. I guess its just nice to know it wasnt one of us as we seem to always be blamed when theres bad riding or a rider hurt etc...etc...

shit..... was back in the 80's, I think he was a young fella on a 250 with no licence, the hospital put him in the bed next to Doug..... if he could have crawled out of bed he would have killed the wee shit.

no...... not steamed up at all, just trying to make my point, I have no time for anyone that crosses the center line...... theres just no bloody need for it. :weird:

This is why we all delay out apexes like good little boys and girls so that no'one crosses the line in the wrong place and are well out of the way of on coming vehicles
