I don't know how much space you have at KB so I uploaded them to another server. Here are a few more pics.

Andy1 the legend himself

Death and his stunting equipment

Hmmm, if only I could bugger off into the distance on one wheel like him...

This one should do him more justice than the other pics posted before

Burning up

Burn baby burn!

And finally, the wannabe stunter/racer

Sweet MR,just wanna point out that the Skyline was my mates that came to take the pics......

Great shots guys! An awesome day had by all it seems.

If you can organise somewhere off a public road and give a couple of weeks notice, I'll be there with bells on. No joke.

Just a word for the wise.....that looks a lot like a 'LTSA' defined public street? Now you have photos of everyone wheeling and stunting on the said street? Now - if a police man happened by coincidence (some are here already) to stumble across this site - you are fucked as you have just provided photo evidence of your illegal activities.

People have been caught many times over around the world because they taped/photoed what they were doing....

Just something to be warned about.

Other than that good stunting.

Another thing that cracks me up.

There seem to be a hell of a lot of people around who aren't in the group. FARK! If that was Wgtn, they'd all have their cel phones out furiously dialing 111. Seems they lack a bit of tolerance down here!

At least he took the time to blank out the regos.

Great riding skills but you are a bunch of idiots doing that on a public street.

As I said, this was trial run so yep, next one will be the big one and it'll definitely be in a legal venue. I'll also give plenty of notice for you Welly boys too. I have another good stunter who will be ready for the next one as well.

Thanx for that wkid. I'd like to say to the police officers that there were no activity going on the road other than us while we were stunting. It was the quietest possible place at the quietest possible time.

Saying that, there is always a risk of damaging public property etc etc so that'll be the last stunt meet up on public roads. In other words "It won't happen again officer, promise

"

I agree, you're idiots, but for a different reason. I'm an idiot too because behaving like this there is a very real chance of injuring yourself. That's what makes it exiting. Having the skill to pull off a maneuver that most people have too much thoughts of self preservasion to try.

As long as there's no chance of people not involved geting hurt and no damage to others property, whats the harm?

I've seen a great video (about 4 minutes long) of a guy just wheelieing along a freeway in the states at a constant 50mph. Not breaking the speed limit at any stage. The ol' Five-Oh pull along side, lights blazing, telling him on the PA to pull over, the dudes just looking at them, still wheelieing away. Rides like this for about 3-4 miles before dropping the front and pissing off!

Properly executed wheelies are NOT dangerous driving. Doing them in populated areas is a different story.

Yeah MR Those Pictures Look Sweet When Is The Next Meet Up If There Is One And Where.....?

Well. Spud has a rather establishmentarian view of these things, I suspect his comment was genuine.

Looks like you guys minimised the risk, anyway. I assume you had spotters out to avoid any interference with legitimate traffic?

Anyway, no harm was done, so I don't see why anybody should be too bothered after the fact. Holding future events in appropriately legal environs would be an excellent idea, particularly if the number of attendees rises. Bit of a difference between pulling the occasional wheelie for personal amusement on the road and having a big gathering where testosterone and adrenaline are likely to take over and create an ACC bill and criminal charges.

Yep, we can always boost up the safety side of things. On the day, I did have my van with basic tools and an extra set of tie downs for two bikes to fit in if we needed to.

Also Draco wasn't there to just look pretty, she's a profetional paramedic and she had some gear in the car just in case.

If we have it at Whenuapai Airbase though, there are Ambos available readily I am told.
