Man fractures leg after riding motorbike into tree
9:45 AM Friday Jul 26, 2013

A man in his 20s was flown to hospital after he rode his motorbike into a tree in Whangamata.

A Westpac rescue helicopter responded to the call at 10.15am yesterday, spokeswoman Alice Wilkinson said.

The man was flown to Waikato Hospital with a suspected fracture in his lower left leg.

He was wearing a helmet when he crashed, she said.

If he was wearing hi viz, his leg would not have broken.:no:

[BigAl]

Bloody tree probably pulled out in front of him:laugh:

His first time down that road apparently. He must have been branching out.

What great reporting!!!!

They should take a leaf out of your book and stop barking up the wrong tree?

[Maha]

The obvious question is ''Why didn't the tree move when it saw the bike heading towards it''?

Must not have twigged what was happening.

[Murray]

Hope the bikes not rooted!!

[george formby]

Just a bit of bark off.

You cunts are all barking mad...

[Murray]

Why WOOD you say that

[unstuck]

I am going to go out on a limb here and suggest it was the tree of life.:Punk::Punk:

As long as the greenies keep planting trees, this sort of thing is going to continue to happen:scratch:

Only on xmas trees.;)

Wrong :(:(,, He rode into a tree he didn't see. Therefore the tree is at fault ( according the ACC ), because it did not have Hi Viz bark and thus was not visible to anyone who was or was not looking. Make sense??

How many trees a year are run into because of being clad in dark bark?

I see a cause to be fought for here:clap: Fluro For Fauna.

[Voltaire]

trees are dangerous, ACC should stop them opening any branches.

[Murray]

Acorny thread this has whittled away too.

[awa355]

Tall trees should be banned as well. This pilot was doing well, untill that tree suddenly grew taller. 285384

[Moi]

Leaf off the poor guy, he hurt his limb.... barked it even!

[MIXONE]

All the globes are too tight?

At the gate a tidy triumph.

I thought plane trees grew in africa not the u.s.a.?:wacko:

[mashman]

Them trees seem to attract those who consider themselves to be a DangerousBastard.

When asked if the tree was damaged, the arborist said she'll be pine.

His dad said that his son had no axe to grind.

He wasn't traveling fast, but hellhecoppedher. :facepalm:

[haydes55]

So he couldn't cedar tree?

It was Camouflaged

[Robbo]

Holy Shit!! Where the F**k did that tree come from!!

[awa355]

So he couldn't cedar tree?

He couldn't see da tree for all the forest.

Does a forest of trees make them a gang??

[Oakie]

Irresponsible cunts need to put high vis on that shit, can they GE orange trees yet?

There is one on Christchurch. A big tree that is all hi viz orange on Manchester St. I'll see if I can get a photo of it tomorrow.

Acronym to get a total thrashing?

[caseye]

Save a motorcyclist, cut down a greenie!

[Mom]

Leaf off you guys...

[Oakie]

Yew just can't beat a good pun thread. Always poplar.

[Akzle]

obviously feeling a bit adventitious, but if he was in a kaur'i wouldnt have been so badly off. Probably coulda got away with calling a totara-ck. Be a damn shame if he wreckd ma'nu'ka tho. The kiki bastard. Oh well a bit of a spruce up will see him photosynthesising.
(most of you probably do, but this only works with a cracker accent)

[Shadowjack]

Just another poor sap...

I'm so bad with accents that even my cockney accent in my head didn't sound good saying that, post us a vid of you saying that aloud in an accent :corn:

I'll give you a bag of chips if you post a vid :whistle:

[T.W.R]

[awa355]

That would require bandwidth. And time. And a video majig.
So buy me all of that.

[Smifffy]

So sticks, not stones, did break his bones after all.

[Oakie]

I guess his ride was truncated.

[Maha]

I guess his ride was truncated.

Or deeply rooted?

[Erelyes]

Ah, never a chance of arboring thread on here.

[Smifffy]

Hope he was properly insured or he willow a few bucks after that.

[haydes55]

No more treesies for you

[Smifffy]

Probably needed a stronger 'and at the 'elm.

[Oakie]

It's hard work thinking of new puns. I'm bushed!

[awa355]

There are easier ways to crack a ' woody ' .

[awayatc]

police reckon they know what caused the accident....

But I know the evidence was planted.....

[Smifffy]

If the bike was liquid cooled, he might need a new radiata.

Don't be a pinus!
:bleh:

[ac3_snow]

I heard he was just popping over the neighbors place for a cup o' tree.

[mashman]

At least he's oakay even though it must have hurt like a son of a birch

[nudemetalz]

Was he riding a Pohutukawasaki?

[Smifffy]

No way I'm going to let him drive manuka

[unstuck]

Was he riding a Pohutukawasaki?

Bet he's wishing he rode a dendron instead then.
