I just got home from heading out towards kawakawa bay from clevedon and was caught off guard by a metric crapload of plastic hose bits all over one of the small bridges about 3- 5 mins out of clevedon.
I turned around, parked up and tried to clear it off the road the best I could but the traffic was somewhat heavy and I may have missed one or 2 bits, I decided to just head back home so I can't be sure if there's any more ahead of that, so heads up if anyones going out that way tonight etc..

It looked pretty dangerous to be riding over.

Well to tell the truth I was trying to make an electric powered bike, but it needed external power, I got as far as kawakawa before I ran out of cable and it all snapped along the bridge.

My bad guys :(

Bollocks!

You were building an electric fence around the North Island to keep motorcycle-damaging Tigers out!

Well what do you expect, they keep scratching my damn bike and people are always like "you fell off your bike!". No one believes I was actually attacked by tigers!

Nigel, remember the conversation we had about mind altering drugs?

Well I just thought I'd better remind you that's all.

Oi! Stop buggering up my favourite bit of road.......I'll rescind your rights to use it!

(Lays squatters claim to road rights as has been thrashing vehicles over it since '71)
