Making excuses (pt II)

[Nasty]

I'm not here to answer your questions.

I'm here to deliver a message.

If you agree with the message but don't like the delivery, take the message and deliver it in you own manner.

I am not an adult educator - and I have no wish to be one, you seem to want to ... go and get some lessons on how to deliver and be heard - rather than how to berate people into not listening. Even something simple like a communcations course may help you.

I, personally, have no tolerance for teaching ... but then again that is often found in my profession.

[T.W.R]

You didn't answer the question?

get out and ride a bit more

[Foxzee]

'Cos I'm special like that.

Well then Mr Special get back to your thread with maybe hopefully a mature angle.....attack is so easy..I'm sorry that I wished that cloud to make you crash on your arse...maybe if you weren't such an arse you wouldn't have to spend that much time on it........

One of my last rides was across that bridge, didn't seem to much different from when I first rode over it some 25-30 years ago

Yet again we see the message that you are attempting to deliver, lost in translation. In fact not even lost in translation, simply agravating for some, more blah, blah, blah for others, and frankly insulting to the thinking members on here. The continued hammering of the sensible folk on here grates.

Either find a different way of delivering your message, or STFU

One of the points about that bridge (if its the one near Hanmer you are talking about) is that like so much of NZ's scenery it is just fantastic around there. The effect that has on me is to think hmmmm interesting, what's ahead here, and the natural reaction I have is to slow down and be prepared to look at the view and take care all at the same time.

Here's a pic for you Kickaha - vintage is 1974 - doubt the bridge has changed much since then.

I believe the following saying sums it up;

"Guns don't kill people, people kill people"

That said, a faulty round blowing up in the breach and killing the user suggests the gun infact killed them....... then we think what % of the time would that happen?

so was it the 25 or the 30 yrs since you rode over there huh? or you getting an affliction like skatman & thinking you're special compared to the majority of road users ?

Still waiting for an answer or aren't you capable of giving one?

I've ridden over it dozens if not hundreds of times in those 25-30 years

No I don't think I am in any way special nor have I said I am and I don't even think Katman has, but unlike a lot of people I'm prepared to accept responsibility for my own fuck ups and not try and blame shift because it's a "recognised black spot" or make some other excuse

I think I must have missed something ... who isn't taking responsibility ... because I have found that being dead makes it a little hard - and for others quite often its about making excuses.

Pull your head in Warrick...... I don't have to give an explination to you nor does the deceased.
and for your information the deceased had only been in the country a number of months and had probably never ridden that section of North Canterbury before.
You're pretty insensitive dredging that accident trying to put feasability into your petty arguement

Accept responsibility for your own fuck ups?? clearly youre an old bastard then. Get with the programme, its not cool to do that anymore.

Shit Dan, can't go saying things like that!!!

But then I doubt you'll worry about the flood of red likely to come your way over it.

He's got a point though - people that need Katman's message will ignore it (for, among other reasons, it's delivery) and the people that listen to it have probably figured it out for themselves.

Still, Dan gets to come aboard and stir - his favourite passtime as I understand......

I'm going to throw up.. !


Get a grip you imbecile.
