    Biker down in welly

    just heard on the radio (live from a guy on a cell phone) that a "stupid stupid motorcyclist" has rear ended a car north bound at the end of the terrace tunnel in welly, he also said that the bike looks pretty fucked and there were no cops on scene yet.

    hope it wasn't anyone we know and that whoever it was is ok

    Find out who that guy was who rang...........
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Not me.

    I'm still stuck at work
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    I haven't got a bike, so not me. Wait for word I guess? Hitcher hasn't got his bike back on the road yet (he's hoping before Easter - fniggers crossed Hitch)

    I also heard something about it on Hauraki this afternoon... apparently traffic was backed up because of it. Was describe as a car vs. motorcycle accident. No other info was provided...

    Didn't hear anything about it and it wasn't me either. Hope the other members of the family are as fortunate! Did they really say a stupid stupid biker?

    yeap he actually said it just like that... sounded just like your average jealous cager when he sees a bike go past him when hes stuck still.

    Im starting to wonder how bad it acutally was, im hopeing it was only minor and he just doesnt know what hes saying....

    Dont stress it dude, just keep riding and things will get easier. Promise you that you'll be looking back and laughing in a month or so. You are doing really well!
