    Wellington warning (Thorndon)

    Southbound m'way, Murphy st off-ramp.

    The 5-0 are picking off bikes exiting the motorway onto the Murphy st offramp.
    2 bikes sped off behind a red 900ss and a yellow gsx600f about 10min ago, while a young lady on a black gn250 was getting a telling off in the carpark by halswell st.

    Somebody must have upset them...

    Just once I'd like to moon the po po on the way past! But my bike pants are a bit too tight to halfmast while riding!

    Who's for running away from work for a ride, seriously?

    The south island ones are spoil sports. As soon as you are over 50 they just tell you to slow down, they don't tell you how fast you are going
    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

    D'you think any Wellington residents have made large and widely discussed Internet postings on the subject of doing runners from the police?

    Nah, can't be it.

    Yeah, I wonder what bike they could be after? I bet it's not my one, cos they're way late, I don't do lunch time gigs, and I have a plate! I can even see it from here

    That speed sign is a pain, it "slow"s at 60 I think. In saying that, it's a blind corner heading toward a couple of schools and an exit from a supermarket. Even ungoverned I doubt the scores would be high.

    Edit: and since I need to be really specific on this site, my bike has been continuously parked for the last five hours. Maybe they're just doing normal traffic policing work that normal traffic police do?
