    hehehe... yeah I through a few comments in to find a response or two. I know such an idea wouldnt work, but why do you pick on black? red is infact a harder colour to see!
    And just for another spin at my outstandingly dumb idea, ya insure a Subaru and it costs more, put an alame in it and the premium drops. so ride nakid and ya prem goes up, wear nickers and a bra and you get a discount.

    Kevlar knickers only.

    Red is harder to see huh? That'll explain all the 'red light runners' in the big smokes. And speaking of smoke, why do they paint fire engines red? People must crash into them all the time.

    I heard that too. It refers to night time visibility. Red is fine in the day but is pretty much black at night. This is why fire engines in some countries are yellow ... hi viz at night.

    The Classic and Vintage motorcycling fraternity have organised a protest ride in Christchurch.

    I have just received a VCC newsletter. It says .............

    5th December - Protest Motorcycle Ride over ACC increases to bike registrations. Meet at the Peg Hotel, Belfast then ride out to Pegasus where John Key will be opening the new golf course.


    It doesn't say what time.

    I'm getting married in Kaikoura next month and was talking to the organiser of the winery where the ceremony is. They said that they have John Key coming for dinner that week..... so I reckon he will be there!

    That would make more sense but hey, this is NZ right?

    Maybe they paint cop cars white coz they're full of motherfuckers! Who knows?
