Good work y'all, I couldn't get time off to come down but I have nothing but respect for the organisers, riders and people who gave up their time and money so peeps like me can afford to keep biking.
Mad props![]()
has developed a love of big fours. WTF!
I was impressed and proud that on One News last night they made mention of how well run and orderly the event was, with no incidents and none of the major disruption expected.
I think that demonstrates the amount of unity of purpose there was, and what a good job the organisers did.
Well done, all!![]()
... and that's what I think.
Or summat.
Or maybe not...
Dunno really....![]()
We need all bikers, whether they ride a 50, 250, HD, Duc, etc. What's more scary for a politician- A few patched riders, or 6000+ riders who represent a large voting community? The prospect of Labour starting to gain a groundswell of support is what scares the Nats.
Bodyguards? I assume you mean DPS- as it has been said they are there regardless- Hikois, Civil Union Protests, Section 59 marches- you name it they are there.
Lets remember that we all sent a clear message yesterday, they key is now ensuring that those 6000 (and others) that turned up yesterday keep fighting the fight! The mighty GN is ready for more!
'beep beep tootle whistle tootle boop beep''- R2D2
6,000 bikers, millions of collective km's, and not one bin is statistically infeasible, and a credit to the ethic of ALL participants. Well done.
I didn't expect there to be carnage, but the stage was well set for at least one pile up, particularly if the forecast bad weather arrived.
Congrats all, and MANY THANKS what you achieved for me and my family.

"read what Steve says. He's right."
"What Steve said pretty much summed it up."
"I did axactly as you said and it worked...!!"
"Wow, Great advise there DB."
WTB: Hyosung bikes or going or not.
I agree with StoneY - on the whole it was incredibly positive and the vibe was awesome. Did see one guy throw a little wheelie down fairway (in front of the duck pond) haha. But yep, the patched bros were all awesome - friendly as.
I left a bit early to get back to work and the nice cop at the bottom of the ramp waved us through a red light - about 5 of us - all on Triumphs - Yay!! we screamed up the motorway northbound - good buzz.
it is xp@
Was a great day I think ALL did really well. When it comes down to it on rides like this it is almost impossible to stay together.
Super grade A for organisation - managed to cause such an impact with so little problems or disruption! I am sure, if it comes down to it, the same fantastic level organisation will be able to apply itself to wotking with the other groups affected and causing a healthy level of disruption...
Motorbike only search
YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - CRC AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE CRC. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

the really happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery when on a detour.
