    Anti-bike on the Rock!

    I first heard of the fatal crash...
    http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/moto...ion-rd-3958389
    ... in Auckland today on therock.
    Seems that the Robert half of Robert and Jono had a bit of chip when he announced the scant details of the crash, followed by "a SPEEDING motorcyclist..."
    Don't know the details of the crash, but his attitude seemed to suck more than a little.
    Any one else notice it, or am I being touchy?

    It's ok to give a shit if it's a politician wanking on and blaming 'us' for stuff because then some bad roll-on effects can happen. Robert from the Rock, meh.

    You are being touchy.

    All motorcyclists speed. Speed is one of the many attractions, if it was not we would all be on 200's and happily getting 100mpg.

    Go on - I challenge one of you to genuinely announce that you have never take your bike over 100 kms per.

    I saw it on either MSN or Stuff with photos this morning but seems to have been pulled since then...They were quoting a spectator who said "the bike looked to be speeding"

    I believe he had a pillian who is in hospital...

    I never "take" my bike over 100km/hr. I just "let" it over...

    I never take my biker over 100km's per hour.

    I always stop for a rest before I get anywhere near that distance.

    Anyhoo, the guys on the rock in the afternoon (and the morning for that matter) are dicks, ignore them and they might go away.

    Good Grief.

    I can't believe it.

    This has stunned me.
