Read a small piece in tonights paper about a couple that got kicked of their motorbike near Hunterville while passing a cow. Pillion ended up with a broken pelvis. Anyone know more on this one?

...a couple that got kicked of their motorbike near Hunterville while passing a cow...

Shit! I rode Kauangaroa Road to the back of Hunterville en route to Wellington yesterday (to get to SH54).

There was a cow/bull loose on the right hand side of the road and it freaked when I approached but I got past. It looked like it was going to run straight into me.

I looked for a farmhouse nearby so I could tell them but there was nothing except decrepit sheds for ages so I gave up. Two bikers I saw coming from that direction earlier on that road looked OK. Didn't see any others.

It was a bloody big cow! Wonder if it was the same one?

That's the route I took. Kauangaroa Road joins onto Mangahoe Road :(

Ah piss.

Maybe the beast was ok with Suzuki's

Sounds like you know the area well do you get up here often?

That was one huge, freaked out cow. Maybe the gixxer growl resonated at the right frequency (fuck off cow, fuck off cow...)

Have ridden that road twice recently, Saturday a week ago and yesterday.

It had to happen sooner or later. The dozey buggers have finally figured out where steak comes from. The war has begun.

I passed a cow the other afternoon. She was weaving all over the road whilst texting. The bitch didn't kick me though.

Yesterday, on SH22, I had to give big space to two sheeps, two turkeys and a rabbit, all festively making sport in the roadway.

Fortunately, I neither exploded my exhaust box nor tootled my horn with vigour, and I avoided entanglement of animals with my wheel spokes as I went soothingly by.

And I'm not surprised the cow didn't kick Blue Velvet. She's scary.

:crazy:

Sheeps? Sheeps? Dan, I thought you were more erudite than that...I'm disappointed, to say the least.

And Blue Velvet, scary? Why, how could such a tiny wee slip of a thing be scary, unless she bit your kneecaps......

Cows with guns
Fattened outside, big and dumb, they look
so stupid, they aren't much fun...

Cows aren't fun

They eat to grow, they grow to die, die to be
ate at the hamburger fry...

Cows well done

Nobody thunk it, nobody knew, no one imagined
a great cow guru...

Cows are one

He hid in the forest, read books with great zeal,
he loved shape-o-vera, a revolutionary veal...

Cows made tonnes

He spoke about justice, but nobody stirred,
He felt like an outcast, alone in the herd...

Cow doll Drums

He mood "We must fight, escape or we'll die,"
Cows gathered around, 'coz the stakes were
so high...

Bad cow Pun

But then he was captured, stuffed into a crate,
Loaded onto a truck, where he rode to he's fate...

Cows are bunned

He was a scrawny calf, who looked rather woozy,
No one suspected he was packen an uzi...

Cows with guns

They came with a needle, to stick in he's thigh,
He kicked for the groin, he pissed in their eye...

Cow well hung

Knocked over a tractor, and ran for the door,
6 gallons of gas flowed out on the floor...

Run cows, run

He picked up bullhorn and jumped on the hay,
we are free roaming bovines, we run free,
today

[Chorus] We will fight for bovine freedom, and hold our
large heads high. We will run free with the buffalo,
for tiiiiiiide!

Cows with guns

They crashed the gate, in the great stampede,
Tipped over the milk truck, torched all the feed...

Cows have fun

60 police cars, were piled in a heap, covered in cow
pies, covered up deep...

Much cow dung

[Chorus]

Cows with guns

The president said 'enough is enough',
He's uppety cattle, it's time to get tough...

Cow dung flung

The newspapers gloated, folk sighed with relief,
Tomorrow at noon, they'd all be ground beef...

Cows on buns

The cows were surrounded, they waited and prayed,
They mood their last moos, they ate their last hay...

Cows outgunned

The order was given, to turn cow into whoppers,
enforced by the might of 10,000 coppers,
But on the horizon, surrounding the shoppers,
came the deafening roar, of Chickens, in choppers...

You would certainly end up with a broken pelvis if you passed a whole cow ... beef curry is bad enough
