    Attention Waikato Motorcycle Dealers - Boycott the Waikato Times

    Check out the cheap shot by the Editor of the Waikato Times (also discussed in other ‎threads here):‎
    http://www.stuff.co.nz/waikato-times...g-bikes-to-pay

    The Editor had the temerity to sympathise with motorcycle retailers, “who are finding ‎it tough”. One way saving money and showing solidarity with their customers is for dealers to ‎withdraw their advertising spend from this tacky little newspaper. ‎

    Talk to your local bike shop – boycott the Waikato Times!‎

    Spit in his face if you see him out and about.

    In comparison, this is what he thinks of cars.

    I'll get the details of his family later on.

    The saddest part about it all is that he probably represents the view of quite alot of the motoring public that believe cars are the only vehicles that should have the right to use the road.

    e-mails sent, wonder if they will take the hint (well in mine it was more of a 'bludgeon') that this might lose them some business?
