People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

[DrunkenMistake]

You can rant and rage and what not, I dont care too much just thought I would share what happend.

So about 20 mins ago one of my neighbours called my home and accused me and 2 of my friends of speeding up my street, faster than the speed limit (50km) which wasnt at all true, the fact of the matter is you only have about 50m to travel from the intersection (which 9/10 you have to stop at) then up the hill to my house.. anyway, after a good 10min argument, she tried to tell me she was worried about the school kids and the children that play up the street and how would I feel if one of my friends or myself had hit one,
Which I replied, anybody could hit one of those kids bike or car it doesnt matter if they were doing 50km or 30km, it only takes one person to change their radio or turn to look at something or someone and it could happen, anyway she insisted that bikes were to blame and we were a danger to the neighbourhood and the communinity and she was a concerned neighbour,
Now, just to make this clear, her and her husband and many of their friends are known drink drivers, he owns and runs the local garage and he does all his WOF's dodgy as shit and half cut, then he drives home or does the wofs drunk, so I brought this up to her saying that what If one of the drink drivers in the neighbourhood were to hit a child becouse they were too pissed to react, anyways this started another 10 min DM rant and she still ignored it saying that we were dangerous,

So I have printed off the NZTA drugs and alcohol limits page off their site that outline the max about of limits for drinking and driving and the penalties etc etc, and I have decided to handle this manor by making a point, one I believe to be a fair one.
I have put it in an envelope saying "From a concerned Neighbour" wither they know it was me or not I dont really care, Just wondering if anyone has ever had this kind of situation?.
(The local cop knows about their drink driving and hes just as bad as them thought I would point that out before someone said "why dont you call the police")

Knock yourself out Grammar Nazis. Lmao

It's easier to agree with people like this before you ignore them. It's politer that way. I think I read that in the Bible somewhere.

Yah I agreed with her to shut her up but she kept going and going so I thought fuck it, Usually I would go off on a huge rant then go over and have a face to face rant but this time I decided to handle it a little bit better haha

I see your problem, make sure you are sitting on your bike, or standing next to it while idling when she next has a chat. Then you can just rev it everytime she opens her mouth, it'll be hilarious, and sound neat too :woohoo:

Lmao, yah I just put a full race system on my bike, and its probably doing about 106db, so im thinking I might roll it over the road tomorrow morning and put the envelope into her letter box, then fire up my bike and give it beans. (Ill be leaving at 6am)

Just be sure you aren't starting something that'll end with some bastard pushing your bike over.

[neels]

I'm sorry, did I miss the part where you said they were police?

If not, just tell them to go fuck themselves (or if you feel like being polite, that you're not listening any more) and hang up.

There are a lot of people that mistake noise for speed, your average boy racer for instance.

Yah, I felt like doing it, in most situations I would do just that, but like I said, the local cop is about as dodgy as their Warrants and they are al good drinking friends, and due to my less than legal riding habits and other bits and bobs its probably not the best bunch of people to tell to get fucked then huss pass at 50 on the back wheel.

And as for the noise part, I told her that they do sound loud especially 3 sports bikes in a row, and she agreed that it could have been a mistake then went on to say I was speeding Lmao

"More polite" would be correcter.

So motorcycle noise is a bad thing?

I listen to a bonnie, a speed triple, a guzzi, a harley and an old ducati going past my place regularly, brings joy to my soul that people are out enjoying themselves on 2 wheels.

Of course if it was jap bikes, it might be different......

[DrunkenMistake]

Im actually pretty good in the mornings, I roll my bike down the hill to where there are no houses but the main road then fire it up.

[DrunkenMistake]

What are your reasons for thinking this? Any evidence?

You roll it down the road with the engine off?

Given that you freely admit to regularly riding at more than twice the limit on your short commute to work I'm surprised to hear you say that you don't give it plenty for the 100m or so near your house as well. Why would she have a problem with you if it wasn't for the reasons she's described?

They wernt at all, she has accused other people (in cars) of doing the same thing that were clearly doing less than 50, and im going to work on actually getting some hard proof to prove it, Iv seen it enough but never really cared too much, kinda over my wee rant and im just gonna ignore it all lmao.

And yes funnily enough I do roll it down the street, some of my neighbours might be dicks, but there is a family with a little kid a few doors down, Im not going to wake them up at 6 in the morning with my noisy bike.

[Ender EnZed]

not again!!

we werent speeding at all

multiple. the local cop drinks with them. its a small community, and everybody there has seen it. Ive seen said cop drink with them then drive home. the guy has lost his WOF issuing rights due to having been proven to issue WOFs to vehicles he knew damn right were dangerous and ilegal MORE THAN ONCE.
Youre from dunnaz right? Youve probably heard of these people!

Our sheep clearly have a lot to learn.

[ducatilover]

I worry that my latest toy is a bit on the loud side too :yes: but I nana it down my road, gotta let the engine, box and clutch warm up. I don't take it over 3000rpm on our road, especially at night. I like my quiet neighbors and I assume they appreciate me not being a knob too.

As for these silly people, they're silly. If you were thrashing it in town, you're a cock. If not, that woman is a stupid bint. Either way.... If I remember right you have a V4? They should appreciate the glorious noises they can make.

[Winston001]

Experiment with another angle - agree with everything she says. Just keep agreeing and saying you'll tell the others etc yadda yadda


Most people cannot cope with agreement. They expect confrontation, an argument. So when you come across as a pleasant easygoing person, they don't know what else to do. And they don't keep complaining either... ;)

I did exactly that after a similar episode with a neighbour a few years ago, then about a week later I advertised a garage sale at their house for the following sunday with a start time of 7am. First trader turned up at 6:30am looking for an early deal. It didn't solve the problem but it did give me a giggle when another neighbour tore her a new one for all the noise and not to mention the cars coming and going all day. Childish I know but very satisfying :nya:

[fatzx10r]

what street is it? i'll go pop a wheelie to wind them up a bit more for you :drinkup:

[oneofsix]

Neighbours are such fun :facepalm:

The good points are that
1/ they are complaining to you, sounds :weird: to say that is good but the alternative is they could go direct to the council with noise complaints and such like. If they go direct to council the council will not tell you who the complainant is, probably in case you seek revenge (as if :innocent:), but does make a complaint harder to defend and removed your 'right' to face your accuser. :angry:
2/ you know who the Mayor and Mayoress of your neighbourhood are. Every neighbour has at least one person who thinks it is their right to control or know everything that goes on around them. The Mayoress in our street has just had her brick letter box bowled for at least the 3rd time in 5 years. I'm sure they are all accidents like reversing moving trucks but funny how its only their letter box that gets whacked. (karma?)

See the problem is that people like you don't look scarey enough ... Black leathers 'n'll and cuts make a difference ... no-one tries to tell you shit like this .. 'cause you look like you might firebomb their house ...

Enough of the wimpy anonymous paper shit .. confront her with a baseball bat in your hands ..

Lmao, I like the way you think, this is my standard approach with people who cut me off, (on purpose that is) and pull the finger to me,


Iv decided to just let it settle for now and ignore it, roared past their garage just before at 40km with half clutch so to get the maximum RPM and noise but without the speed. (probably not good for my clutch, but its all good it needs new plates anyway)
I might wait a week, then drop it into their letter box, should be enough time for them to forget what happend and will be good for laughs.
This is my main reason for hating small neighbourhoods with people who think they know everything, Like I agree with her concerns as there are some dopey ass kids in this neighbourhood who have their little skateboards and think becouse im on a bike im going to stop when they walk out infront of me (ever been kicked in the knee at 30km? .. One teenage kid has.. :innocent:) but its when its a little excessive and wild accusations just cause fire.
Thanks for everyones input some good laughs in there, I expected a few more Trolls to be honest but just the usual effort by Ender EnZed and a mild attempt by Katman.

Having his mother deliver a note to neighbours which threatened to kill them for their poor driving was not the brightest idea a 36-year-old Dunedin man had yesterday, police said.

Senior Sergeant Steve Aitken said the note, which was written in pink pen and included the writer's name and where he lived on Bradshaw St, criticised the neighbours' alleged history of speeding up and down the South Dunedin street.

His 19- and 21-year-old male neighbours took exception to the note, armed themselves with a knife and a baseball bat and paid him a visit about noon.

The "neighbourhood dispute" resulted in the trio being arrested, one for threatening to kill and the others for possession of offensive weapons.

They will appear in the Dunedin District Court this week.

Wondered when I read that article lol

Lmao nah, I seen that in the paper though, I thought it was a good laugh considering the guy was 39 and got his mum to drop it off.
