I do hope you noted I made no reference to alcohol or any so called "gang" ride all.

Yep, I take your point Waylander, about showing some respect for a fallen biker. But it wrong for people to wade into the discussion with the usual "Effing Cager" type attitude. It appears at this stage that the cage driver was also an innocent victim. He must be shattered - and he also deserves some respect.

Get over it ya god damn do gooder, If in fact this biker was in the wrong then he should get the shit that the cage drivers do here...... ya know it dosent matter if the riders were gang related or not.... nor does it matter if those involved were drinking, hell it could have been me that fucked up, either way poker runs "do" involve drinking for the majority of riders.... this is why I do not do many of them as by just being there I'm condoning drinking and riding.

BTW yes I have done many a poker run

Yip..... well said V, if in fact the cage driver did nothing wrong..... poor bastard will have to live with that for the rest of their life, that sucks

My thoughts go out to all involved...gave both of us a bit of a shock!..talked to a mate down that way..he knows the guy with the triumph shown on news..rekons 19 bikes taken out!

As far as making judgments about who organised or who was on the ride the one thing social motorcycling has taught me is that you can never judge a book by it's cover.

As for poker runs.....we love them...alltho there is allways the odd dick head who drinks too much...I normally smile to my self when I see these 'tuff' bikers ordering orange juice at the bar.

And.......by the way .....I'm back!

**Sniper** · 13th February 2006, 06:45

Bugger, all my thouht go to those involved and those affected.

Wrong.
The biker arsehole (probably pissed/stoned) hit the SUV because he was doing a dodgy passing manouvre.

**placidfemme** · 13th February 2006, 07:06

RIP for the pillion and condolences to her family... regardless of who was wrong it is still a shame that this happened.

**deathstar** · 13th February 2006, 07:09

just heard on the morning news that it was a biker group fundrasier in hawkes bay where 1 biker crossed the centre line into a 4 x 4 which then went out of control into 4 other bikers 4 are still in intensive care and 1 women died .... this is what happens when people take risks with others lives it was crap that he crossed the centre line but had his wife on the bike behind and 40 bikes behind him .... if your on here mate Sorry for your loss
