Last night when I got home I noticed an oil spot on my driveway, right smack in the middle. My house is a regular meeting spot for motorcyclists so I want to warn everyone now to be very careful when coming up the drive, especially if its wet.
The spot is about the size of a 50 cent peice, if you hit it at the right angle it is possible you may skid about 1 perhaps 2 mm resulting in a front wheel slide, Nasty stuff!!
Please take heed and ensure you approach my driveway at a safe speed.
Thanks and be safe out there
Peace out

Thanks mate you're a legend, who knows it could've been me doing a 140kph rolling stoppie into your drive and losing the front on the oil sending me through the garage door and knocking over your pride and joy ZX636R, what a shame that would've been, so you're lucky, come this weekend though if i see ya out on the road on that 636 :ar15:

I can handle the oil, but for God's sake get rid of that one piece of gravel - it's giving me the shits!

Good on you Quasi for spotting that and alerting us all :clap:
The next question is: who's bike was it because they've got a big problem or an eager chain oiler.

Oh MY GOD there is a peice of gravel on my driveway as well, I might have to ask you all to park on the road until I can get it removed, there would ony be a small number of riders on here capable of handling that eventuallity and coming out alive

Im not sure but I had a K5 and a K3 Suzuki on the drive on Sunday so Obviously it must be related to it.

It's OK folks. The authorities have been informed. The driveway is now fenced off and there will be a short detour along H22 finishing on the neighbours lawn. Ride carefully.

Ok, I think we need a plan of attack, I put forward we send a sacraficial (spelling) biker to attempt the driveway first. Bags not me. Someone bold, brave and dependable. Or we could just send Winja. If he conquers the driveway without a spill, then next up should be whoever is the most qualified in making a team decision with regards to the route to take. As I feel again its not me, it requires someone with amazing fast reactions and the ability to make the right decision at the right tme. Or we could send JSG. If all goes well, by the yr 2010 we should be able to start using the driveway as a bike friendly parking area. :yes:

You should copy your post to OSH, they would be very encouraged that someone may actually be paying attention to the drivel that they preach :weird:

Right having read all the above posts...
I feel I need to inform you all that I have been in touch with my lawyers..
Note I said lawyers....
They are aware of the oil slick and one said piece of gravel and are going to send you a letter to inform you that you must move out.
They have also arranged that 10 (ten) real estate agents are coming to your place to give you notice and organise a "For Sale" party.
Should there be any trees on the site they must be all cut down so that no cats can climb them.
They want all dirt tyre marks to be thoroughly washed and brushed away ASAP.
BTW Quasi thanks for the warning.... :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Tut tut tut - bet you didn't get a resource consent to have that on your property! The impacts of an oil spill of that magnitude aren't even worth thinking about. Ecosystems down, human health affected, small children running away in terror....
I think Deano will have to come and pay you a visit.

Well I've been informed that only a bunch of queer cunts ever go to your place Quaz, so I'm not too concerned with the dangers it presents to me.
A proper rider could spot it a mile away in any case so why don't ya fug off and try and save the dolphins or something ya fuggin treehugingdogooderhippywomble.

We should ring the city council and ask for their road sweeper truck to clean the driveway of lose objects like stones. A broom might be too weak.
Regards the oil, you might have struck an underground oil field $$$
[Okay, that's enough Flyingpony :whistle: , as you were ]

Alright!! N.Z.s fuel problems are OVER!!
Get it refined to at least 98 octane and sell barrels of it to KBers at no more than 70 cents a litre, the rest of the public can pay 1$!!!!
What a stroke of luck!!!

13th July 2005, 21:55
cheaper gas excellent. is there a discount on KB membes?
but how ever the gravel would still create a problem. but you could use it to cap the oil well it has created.
but what ever you do don't let aunty Helen know.
or she may put a Tax on it.
Oh MY GOD there is a peice of gravel on my driveway as well, I might have to ask you all to park on the road until I can get it removed...Aha! There we have the real reason revealed for starting this thread to begin with! You're absolutely gutted with the dribble of oil spilled on your precious new driveway and from now on you want every man and his dog to park on the roadside...fair enuf too Quasi!! :mad:

Did Big Dave park his bloody Triumph on yer drive???
All right no one's said it yet. Who parked the Harley in your drive way?
Neither of you guys know dick about Trumpys and Hardleys - if either had leaked on his driveway, you wouldn't be able to see the driveway...

I think the importance of the issue must first be verified by forming a working party. Should the working party's preliminary analysis determine that a solution needs to be worked toward then it would be appropriate that a subcommittee was dedicated to the task of forming a structure to move forward with plans to consider options of finding a solution. It is of vital importance throughout this process that the parties involved meet their obligations under the Treaty.
Alternatively, if ACT get into power, you'd go down to SuperCheap, buy some $2 degreaser and a $7 rubber mallet, spray said patch of oil into oblivion and use the mallet to beat the f***er who desicrated(sp) the new driveway.

And if National gets in power you'd do nothing because there would be no policy on it whatsoever - but anyone in the National Party, including its janitors, could buy you three new driveways out of ther pay increases.

and if Labour get in... they will supply the labour force team (PD workers) to come and clean it all up.... at no cost...
