A place of repair? Interesting. So I could ride to a mechanic who gives out WoFs but not to a VTNZ testing station? Is it to ride to a place of repair only actually in order to get repairs then?

Ok fussy pants - you can ride/drive to have a WoF test,then home again,then you can ride/drive to a place of repair.You can still be issued with a ticket,then present your new WoF within 14 days or some such.If you don't get the WoF then you pay the fine...easy.

No letter, places that do that annoy me and typically lose my custom. Besides, don't you give a mailing address/place of residence which is at least 400km away? That might do the trick too since you're then thought to be from out of town.

Okay update:

Rode the steed this morning from home to my preferred WoF renewal place 6km away. Just gotta love places that give you one for $20 - why do bike shops charge $35?

Anyway, was nearly on the home straight as they say and what do I notice a few cars back in the other lane, Mr

was there, so it was good to see that I had an official escort

Was quite surreal seeing him/her in the mirrors for the last 2km, was expecting the lights & siren to engage at any moment after they ran my plate through the computer...

Great news: Bike passed the WoF as expected. No written comments and no verbal comments too, well, got one:

Dude your bike rides really well
