MAG-NZ Launches in New Zealand

[Usarka]

I'm consulting my lawyer!

[NighthawkNZ:Me]

I have always got it..... but I still think this could have been spelt out. I will be unsubscribing. Thank you!!!

You obviosly signed up to the ACC newsletters from KB as it says on the front/home page

Keep up to date with the campaign against changes to our ACC.

Sign up to the:
ACC Levy Campaign Mailing List.

If you want anything sent out on the mailing list, contact SpankMe.

KB did not give MAG-NZ your email address... MAG most likely asked if an email could be sent about the launch of MAGNZ...

as spank said if you don't want more info to be informed unsubscribe from it...

[Scorpygirl]

The problem was finding words with few enough syllables - but we got there in the end...

Thank you Virago. Sorry I am very s-l-o-w and have an IQ of i-m-b-e-c-i-l-e.

[Scorpygirl]

So you two are a couple?

With an axe to grind against MAG-NZ?

Try harder next time.

Excuse me ...... I do NOT have an axe to grind against MAG. It has only just been set up.

[Berries]

Your point about MAG-NZ comittee members having a specific ie: different avatr to ordinary members is a good one, mind if I put it forward for you?

Go for your life. I like the one with the masturbating possum myself.

Not a possum masturbating myself. Just to make that clear.

BRONZ are still very much in evidence Bren. Read the website, MAG-NZ is definately NOT a politically motivated group.

if I remember back in the day Mag uk WAS a political group, one of the reason WHY they had clout ...

Im not holding my breath , for sheep to have a strong consensus of will ( opinions , plenty of those , but ,,,,no will)

Im too old

He is. He is trying to finish his 6th book atm. He must have been really young when he got involved in MAG-UK

[Brian d marge]

They have achieved quite a lot really - you just seem too generally miserable to notice.
The minister consults Les (amongst others that represent larger numbers of riders).
It was Les who put the 'put money aside for safety measures' is his clam-like.
Plenty of other things too. He has worked quite tirelessly and is close to becoming a player.
BIKEOI etc.

My opinion is 'we' don't need a MAG and a BRONZ. There isn't enough interested people.

If one proves better than the other - well and good. If they serve to make each other weaker...time will tell huh.

Ulysses is sponsoring talks on a 'motorcycle council'. But purport it to be non-political. I suspect that will change in time too.

Good luck to all - said it all twice - I'm done - and will let the media make up their own minds.

agreed ( except for the non political part )
Les spoke really well for the motorcyclist, and like most thing we may not agree with most , but it doesn't matter as the only things those idiots in wellington see are money , and votes ( reputation ...im not sure they care based on some recent media )

hike the rates , change the Acc the current government HAS done this

Has done , finished , done, you pay

Les and a lot of other worked their arse off , and the silent majority , had to go to work , ( insert cheap excuse )

Now pay up and don't wine ,,,, or sell your bike

Stephen

Disliking of sheep since 196?

[Brian d marge]

well its 25 years ago for me
he wasn't a spring chicken then ,

As it says on the site, being politically neutral does not equate to being politically neutered..
The main reason why MAG had so much clout was because it had so many members..and they where active and having some good times.

Never tooo old mate, I mean I was on MAG runs in 76 FFS.

they had how many on the last protest run about ACC here ...10, oh go on lets be creative 100?

whoopeee

and I must admit those Mag sponsored runs were good , every where you rode , there was at least one Mag rep

Stephen

[scracha]

I am very aware of that. My question still stands. Is MA-NZ affiliated to KB?

If not, using the KB mailing facility seems somewhat strange.

KB sends out emails pertaining to anything relating to the ACC issue. It is clearly stated when you join KB.
From time to time, the administrators and/or other members may want to send you email notifications or messages. If you do not want to receive email from certain people then you may disable the options here

Not the first time emails have been sent out (Bikeoi and I think Bronz related stuff). They don't come very frequently either but if you don't like it, change the option in your user profile. If you still aren't happy then just leave, but please don't slam the door when you exit.

Oh, while you're at it...can you ask your lawyer to sort out NZ's most prolific spammer,, Richard Gee http://geewiz.co.nz/

From memory, the last protest we had in Auckland had over 100, not that long ago, sure someone will have the exact number, and it was a mite on the damp side...
We had a ball.

I have NO doubt we will get there mate...
Anyway cocker it's been a day..
Later.

[oldrider]

both he and John Key are just puppets... I keep saying you want change cut the strings and find the puppeteers

True, no argument about that but they suffer no consequence from their political actions or affiliations!

Other than the three yearly MMP mock election, where they may get thrown out of a seat and then stroll back in through the party vote back door!

They think that they are untouchable under MMP!

We (motorcyclists) should target Nick Smith personally and really hound him into political oblivion!

If we do it well enough the National party will quickly abandon him in their own interest!

It would also establish motorcyclists as a group not to be fucked with in the future!

One objective, one target, one focus a clear time frame and a united front...I.E. his ACC crimes against us!

We have time to do it by the next election, just focus on "Smith" and nothing else and pound him every day 24/7!

Death by a thousand cuts is still death and we could cut him up good if we really "wanted to", thousands of us!

Cut him out of the mob and do him, that's the way nature does it! The bastard!

[MSTRS:Me]

Never ONCE did I say it was a CLUB or lobby group or national body?....I am fully aware of what it does and how it works..............Its just a lot more useful to the everyday biker than the groups you have listed !

No, you didn't. But you did imply that KB is the only motorcycle-related 'organisation' that is needed. Which I pointed out, it isn't.
KB is not an agent for change, although it's members can be - by setting up an Incorporated Society to be the face of those wanting change/improvement for our chosen form of transport/recreation. Other Incorporated societies exist for much the same purpose - but their performance/s may fall short of what many want. Hence their desire to set up a new one that will serve that need.

So now all the crappy admin stuff is done.

When do we burn down the beehive?

I was referring to MNZ

Just need to drop the money in the bank when I get home tonight... Congratulations to MAG-NZ et al, site looks great, plenty of concise information and a desire to look after the future health of your fellow country(wo)men... Actions speak louder than words ...
