I do not mind riding in the rain but do find it very hard to get motivated to go out in the winter rain, in past have done more than my share in wet weather tags, also my wet weather gear is not like it used to be.

Actually mate, you have point blank refused to go out and get the last 100+ or so tags, so my opinion is you should put up or shut up.

Incorrect. I have never refused to go get a tag. I have chosen not to go get them. I have never refused....


Refusal:
a negative response
to reject something
lack of agreement to perform a particular course of action

And to your response. If someone is going to misinform involving me, I have the right to respond. It was also tongue in cheek between Spacemonkey and myself.
So I don't give a damm about your opinion as it's irrelevant.

El Bandito - il morte. I think that's the correct translation.
Riding home last night car comes out of Pukerua Beach Rd and T boned me then drove off. The :Police: atteneded and where good, offending vehilce left his front number plate at the scene so hopefully they will catch them. What I saw of the bike before departing to Wgtn Hosp in ambo for check up it didn't look to good.
So the Eagle is grounded pending insurance etc etc.

Home nursing lots of bruises but thankfully nothing broken and atgatt did it's job.

Didn't stop at all other than what the impact caused, according to the witnesses.

What I saw of the damage el Bandito is RIP sadly, I really really liked that bike.

Thanks for your thoughts, I'm very glad the gear all did it's job and lucky it wasn't worse. Will be back on something two wheeled once the insurance do their thing.

[KapitiLizard]

That's horrible news, but so pleased to hear you weren't badly injured. Bikes can be repaired but friends are not so easily replaced.

[devo]

fuck me,thats bad news Paul
Main thing is your still in one piece,

So, any updates on the scumbags who ran ?

No update on the scumbags, :Police: tell me they had a sighting in Mana Monday night but 'enquiries continuing".

The body is a lot of aches and pains but the swelling in the leg and left hand are subsiding, is OK if I move real slow.

KGB went to the tow yard and took some phone pics of el bandito, damage all in left side, also shot of helmet from road roll and left boot which I think was actual car impact.

My insurance policy (Swann) says "give us the correct registration number of the other vehicle or information we need to positively identify the driver". My interpretation would be that the rego number is sufficient as it says "or". The insurance company then has the job of recovering it from the scumbag !!
Hopefully your policy is similar so you aren't out of pocket for the excess.

woohoo - great news about Glen - but i have already bought the winning ticket:yes:

Will be waiting to hear great news about this awesome young racer. Go Glen and well done Mal and Jan for bringing up such a lovely and talented young man:sunny:


:Offtopic: Guys and gals, the Sketchys are off to Phillip Island to watch the Moto GP. Naaaaa what we are really doing is Glen is racing in the support races for the GP weekend so Glen thinks we are going there to watch him :laugh:. Anyway he is running a raffle with some great prizes to support himself and hopefully go kick some Aussie Ass, so if anyone is interested have a look at this thread
http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php/128633-Skachill-Racing-is-off-to-Australia!
I have tickets so if interested just PM me and we can arrange.

Has Glen been there before?Must be a bit of an eye opener with some really fast corners compared to NZ tracks

[ralph4alice]

[QUOTE=ralph4alice;1129870335]Lovely spot - Stellin Memorial Park?

And speaking of new tags ........ :wait::wait::wait: :p

I haven't any decent pics to post - sorry! Unprepared.
:dodge: :chase: :mad:


Promise I'll grab one on the way to work tomorrow morning, to post by 9. I like to do the game justice by getting decent pics. And promise I won't leave two commutes in a row without tags like I have this time!!

Hey guys .
just got my restricted licence today(piss easy) been looking at this for ages keen to play now. :yes: what a cool idea.

:niceone:Welcome to the soup. I was told when I started how addictive tagging was but did I believe it:doh: Very addictive and it will have you riding at all hours in all weathers:ride:

No he hasn't been out of NZ so really its just about expeience and a taste of International racing. He will love the faster cornering I reckon.

Another used location but with a different view. One of my tags was at that same place but my pic was taken from the left looking over the valley. A definate for BE if he hadn't had his wings clipped.

The security guy came out to see what I as doing when I took mine. Wasn't happy that I had ridden into that spot

I went up Whitford Brown into Aotea and then on the way out after getting the tag I discovered the road had joined Frances Brown Ave. So the subdivision is now accessible from either end... there are a ton of new houses up there already !

You are right, I did stop on the way home an buy this fuel can. I had overlooked that some of you guys used the times between pictures to get a clue about it's location.

For those of you playing at home on SV, the tag is visible on SV, but it is partially obscured

The train itself is acceptable when it runs, the nuisance factor is the 20 minute walk at each end and a timetable that doesn't quite fit the work schedule.
