    More about it in the second half of this article. Sounds like there's something else going on.

    The road was still closed this morning when we went into Oamaru shopping, this is not a good look, there appears to be cage mischief afoot here!

    All will be revealed in good time I hope but it seems that the motorcyclist was hit more than once before he was actually attended to!

    The conditions were pretty foggy this morning guess that may have been a feature at the time of the incident too!

    I am reviewing our own visibility factors when on our bike, got a glimpse of it the other day when another person was riding my bike, needs improvements that's for sure!

    I didn't see them officer, I can just hear it now but there could be some justification, if I don't improve things, sooner rather than later!

    Local papers are full of it, pics of his Ninja and all, plus a lot of local (North Otago) people have been involved in the follow up and there may be much more to it yet to be revealed.
