Hiya

Got passed today by someone trying to get away from the cops!!! First time I had seen it, wouch. The guy did not want the ticket!, And the way he was riding, I would say the ticket was none.

Cop's I think abandoned the chase later down Te Rapa when they could not get around the traffic quick enough. Glad I was not cought up in any mistake that could be been made, the guy was moving!

NUTS! NUTS NUTS NUTS.

I think the guy was just in jeans and jumper to...

First time I seen that.. anyways, thought I would share.

Good to see soo many bikes out today

Oh yeah, he was on a R6 or R1, 05-07 model

Because that type of riding from a chick would have invoked and involintary rush of blood away from my head and I would have crashed. That did not happen, So I can assume it was a bloke :P

I do not think he had time :P, He kinda had to counterstear his ass off around the car in the left lane infront of me hehe

I want to know where the chase started..

But yeah, He should have made an effort. All the other bikers were friendly today :P

Amen to that!!!

Warr took me out for a bit of mentoring today, had probably the best ride I have had on the new bike yet!!!! slowing getting the corner speed sorted as the ol confidence picks up again.

Bit off topic but had a funny moment today re the wave thing,me i used to back in the day give a wave to anyone on a bike then i dunno just got to the stage where i couldnt be bothered so didnt.Since being on here every second thread seems to be some moan about someone not waving and usually centered around it being a Harley rider blah blah blah,personally i couldnt give a flying fuck about what someone rides or wether they wave but somehow the whinging ive read on here must have sunk in somehow as when out riding today i had a V-Rod rider give me a hearty full on wave to which i sat up took hand off throttle and gave him the one fingered one back

Sorry mate whoever you were,was just a bit of KB anti wave thread backlash.

Wouldnt ave mattered what you were riding.
