    OK then.
    What you are saying makes you look like a stupid slut.
    No offence.

    Doesn't really matter when you're hitting any of them.

    I suggest to fund the super safety upgrage we install toll booths on the roads with WRB and motorcyclists ONLY can pay for the upgrade

    easier to hit nothing if it isn't there at all though isn't it?

    sure, they can fund it from the money I pay to those on the benefit.

    Why would you do that?

    I was highly enthusiastic about the advent of MAG-NZ until I arrived at the realisation that they're just another organisation who refuses to publicly address the root cause of our ills.

    Power poles keep the power cables off the ground ... out of our way ... (most of the time)

    Fences keep stock off the raod ... (most of the time)

    WRB's keep traffic on the road/in their lane ... (most of the time )

    ergo ... all are safety devices ...
    When life throws you a curve ... Lean into it ...

    No no sweetie. You want action. You want things fixed. Lets have toll booths then to pay for the removal of the WRB.
    Paid for by like minded (to you) motorcyclists - Yeah right.

    I guess when the other road users learn who paid for them to be able to drive into the face of oncoming traffic they will be so grateful they will look once, look twice, look bike.

    Stay on subject and accept you can't have your cake and eat it too

    Maybe we just need a plan ready to sort the problem, before making a public address.

    Spare me the condescension, I don't think it is helping your cause. My point was this place isn't pay your own way, and road safety certainly isn't, why do you think it should be?

    Unlike yourself, I don't have a cause - nor a crusade.

    I'm just saying that if you really want something done the best thing is to pay for it yourself. It really is the ultimate measure of who agrees with you.

    Actually, it just measures the wealth of those who agree with you, surely you wouldn't suggest the measure of a person is thier wealth? The first step would have to be to get TPTB to stop putting up any more WRBs anyway. This is not something that can be paid for (unless you bribe people), but is something that requires a sound argument, and a lot of support. Given time I'm confident we will get both.

    It measures who is prepared to reallocate their resources. Is the removal of WRB more important than milk in your coffee?

    Yo actually need to be sure you have a mandate. At the moment all I hear is a voice

    =Tony W;1130027078]OK then.

    No offence.
    Stupid is not something I own, but if you want, it does not offend me. Slut is short for? Susan? Sylvia? Not sure. Also no offense taken, but you are cruising close to my, go fuck yourself tolerance. You are on notice now

    Like I said, the first step is to get the support (a lot more than one voice). I reckon the majority of bikers already want them gone, remember, the world is bigger (and has far fewer trolls) than kiwibiker.

    What's this MAG-NZ thing? Some sort of club?

    The sun will rise in the east and all will be well in the world when we all agree with YOU
