    Sorry to hear. While some say it's important to grieve, many others say move on and buy a replacement as soon as possible.

    Go here...

    That's ratshit man. Probably another fucking bus dropping fuel everywhere. Very common around these parts at the moment. Wankers.

    Sorry to hear about your bin, glad you're ok. It always seems they send the crappiest buses to Wainui. We've noticed that some roundabouts (eg near BP) get a bit slippery every now and then.

    Funny how it is the ones near a petrol station, cage drivers over filling their tanks, then when they go round the next corner it all spills out

    Good to hear you are not seriously hurt, hopefully you will be able to sort the bike.
    If you can't be good, be good at it

    Fuel spills

    When I went riding down in the South Island we came across a few areas where Boy Racers had covered the entire surface of the road with deisel so they could do burn outs.Their cars were obviously not powerful enough to get up and go on their own, these types of tossers put everyone at risk including cage drivers. Imagine their surprise as they turn left at the intersection but find they are still going in a straight line.
    If you ever catch pre pubescent idiots pouring deisel on the road do us all a favour and kick their teeth in!!!!

    Enjoy the freefall while it lasts the next bits gonna hurt!!!

    Sorry to hear. Since my last two offs, one which involved spilled oil at an intersection, I'm a little weary of cranking it over too far in built up areas. There is always that chance of something untoward on the road.

    Ever notice that anyone slower than you is an idiot, but anyone going faster is a maniac?

    Bad news

    Hi Stunz
    I'm recovering from a broken ankle and an uninsured bike. My fault but it's still a drag. At least your still alive.
