I have been left with a second hand HJC Helmet (medium), with both metallic tinted visor and clear visor, and a pair of Orina gloves (med)......to pass on to someone of need.
I can't be arsed sending these (with a 1 year old I barely get time to sleep). So pick up either after work (@ Mt Roskill) or during work hours (East Tamaki) are really the only options.
Who wants them before I drop them off to the salvation army?266752

Well this is an interesting situation. Technically I got this PM first.
Hi there,
I would be very grateful if I could either the gloves or helmet, or even both if you're feeling ultra generous!
I live reasonably close to Mt Roskill so could pick them up after work hours some time this week if it suits?
Cheers,
Michael
But this was the first response in the thread.

So 2 options are:
a) Compromise - one of you gets the helmet, the other gets the gloves
b) Fight to the death! First person to post a picture (in this thread) of themselves next to their bike with a sad face gets the loot!

Haha I do like the sounds of the fight to the death, but it's raining and well... yeh.
I concede defeat, on the grounds that I already have a decent helmet, and I live about a block away from Cycletreads (ALLLLL the way in Takapuna) so prob easier to just pop in to there to get some gloves.
I'm sure "The End" shall treat them well and they shall live a long happy life, filled with joyfull days riding and sunshine and rainbows

Both left and right, no gloves will cost you a balaclava and feet are free.
Pic of bike/sad face or fight to the death s a good idea though :2thumbsup

Haha no worries, the girl can have them both. I already have a helmet that should hopefully suffice till summer!
Thanks again!
Ok well you both are pussies. Therefore it is decided.
The End - You get the Helmet.
Lozza - You get the gloves.
I live at 477D Richardson Road, feel free to come pick them up any night this week after 6. Prob best to drop me a txt before you come around (027 278 5595) just incase I am stuck at work.
You have until Sat night to collect otherwise they go to the op-shop on Sun.

I dunno. I leave the risk taking for when I am on the bike.
You never know who might want to get their 5 finger discount.
Rather take my risks with the blind corolla owners.

Around these parts you normally have to put a blindfold on and suck milk out of a hose.

Fuck off, it doesn't even rhyme.
There was a young lady from Aucks
Thought KB was so full of dorks
She wanted some gear
For the price of a beer
But the cost was a flash of her norks.
Ithankyou
