    What Mr CaN said. If y'don't fight back every time, the bastidges will screw y'down. Give 'em an inch and they'll take a mile.

    TPTB hate motorcycles with a mighty hatred, cos we stand for everything they want to destroy. Pricing us off the road by absurd levies would be music to their ears.

    They almost managed it in the 90's that's why I'm so pleased to see more motorcyclists on the road. There's strength in numbers. Provided we can all stick together and have a bit of gumption, and don't go rolling over and wimping out like bikers did in the 90s.

    Back in the 70s bikers were a force to be reckoned with, I remember what happened when they tried the ACC levy trick back then. They were a tougher breed back then, we won't see the likes of those old bikers again, but we can still make our mark. If we stick together.

    Stick it to the Man , cos if y'don't he'll stick to you!

    I have my own important battles and this just is not one that I worry about......I think the more trubs we create the more we expose ourselves and open ourselves up.................but if you asked me to sign something I would cause I can still support in that way..

    It's been a rough day. I got up this morning, put on a shirt and a button fell off.
    As I ran out the door, I picked up my briefcase, and the handle came off.
    Now I'm afraid to go to the bathroom.
