Apparently Str8 got hold of the person she had a gut feeling about. Safe and sound on the Main Land.

Seems like alot of Wellington road users had no idea how effective the emailing reporting system is.

I have a little project I am enquirying with the WCC about and have used this site. I have noticed that due to increasing numbers of bikers riding, and heaps more scooters, some of the CBD parks are becoming packed. Its going to get worse, especially with summer coming. Furthermore theres a huge space on the southern end of the library where you could park 30 scooters and it has safe access and drive away. For scooters only fine, but that would help relieve the pressure on the main park across the road. Its just an idea but who knows what may come of it.

I know its not really about the thread but the subject of Wellingtons roads has seemed to have become a main discussion point here perhaps as a possible points to note where the danger spots are.

I don't dwell on the macabre side of riding, so I rarely post on these 'rider killed' threads. But it's only natural when a local rider is killed that you take notice. So how come this has not been mentioned in the Dompost? Did this incident happen? And I don't mean that with any disrespect. Just that I wave or nod to most riders around town and know lots so ..why nothing reported? Or did I miss it.
