    Which area/street in Chch did this happen?
    90% of the time spent writing this post was spent thinking of something witty to say. It may have been wasted.

    Carry a large "bike security chain" on your wheels to deal with such little punks:

    I agree with Scumdog. The little turds need to be flushed away.

    Plug, as much as I agree with your initial sentiments I can't agree with your actions and think you were a bit lucky in the end.

    Had you ridden by and ignored the little pricks there would have been no change in either their or your attitudes but now they have the realisation that their big knife has enough power to scare off an adult biker for the price of a $10:00 cap.

    Bolstered by this the next biker they are confronted by they will probably notch their attitude up to the next step and try using the knife.

    Their problem is much more deep seated than just flicking the bird at sundry passers by, it goes right to to the core of current New Zealand society!

    As was mentioned above, had any more of their mates suddenly turned up and you got isolated from your only means of escape (BMW) you could have quite easily now been the first item on a brief media news item!

    I enjoyed reading about your nice day out riding, the alternative, for the sake of a delinquent flick of the bird does not weigh up!

    Sorry but I don't think that was your best decision of the day and I value your friendship more than that and they probably got your number so it might not be all over yet.

    Reading what you wrote above, the do gooders of this day and age would have a field day against you (the adult aggressor) in court too. (IMHO)

    I am just pleased that you are OK! Cheers John.

    Sorry Oldrider, I disagree, Plug did the right thing confronting them. I feel we need to stand up against any type of crap behaviour and stop it as soon as it occurs.
    I would have done the same, including baling out when a knife was pulled. At the end of the day they have lost their belongings and may well think twice about behaving like arseholes next time. Conversely (as others have said) it may encourage them, but you do what you can in any situation.

    Well done Plug!

    Bloody Hell P.. good on ya for giving it a go mate.. but I'm with JMemonic on this one.. could have easily escalated outta hand, with 2 of them to egg each other on. I was also thinking what John just said, they might have got your licence number, so it may not be over. Good luck mate, & I hope it all goes no further! Bloody glad to hear that you are ok though!!!!

    best form of defence is attack 1st when the blood is runnig hot.no good waiting to you see them again. its then that you think about the implacations and tell yourself you dont realy want to go to jail over some fuck wit you dont even know. some of the youth today get away with far to much because of there age.years ago the cop would give them a good clip around the ears and say dont ever let me catch you playing up again.there is know where near enough respect left for others we shear our world with.

    And there in lies the problem. You can't give kids a bollocking these days because you will lose unless they are actually nice kids trying to act like gangstas. Kids know their rights, they know you can't smack them upside the head, and now they know that might is right.

    Stopping may not have been the best solution, but is ignoring it a better alternative? Good on ya for giving a shit, and good decision to leg it.

    It's very easy to say "you should have smacked his head in", but it's a little different when you are actually facing a knife. Two options, either you leg it (recommended solution) or you take them on knowing one of you might not be walking home.

    Helmet (and I mean the motorbike one, fools...) held firmly in your hand makes for a good defensive weapon... can strike up and down as well as across in both directions, and put in good straight jabs to the face too... A vegetable peeler knife is no match for that at all. Self defense against a knife carrier regardless of the age, you would be sweet!

    Wouldn't worry about the license plate number - doubtful they can read
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

    ARRRR the voice of experance & reason ... cheers OR ... there is no doubt that I played a part in the whole frackar ... all I wanted to do was shove his finger up his own nose or give his ares a close inspection with me boot ...

    the last thing I wanted/needed was an escallation of the inserdent & I could visualise all sorts of others parties dining out on their & my actions/reactions, hence my rather quick exit stage left ... live to fight another day ...

    East LA (New Brighton) was the location ...

    you hear/read about this sort of juvinal behaviour, but this is my first experance of it ... we, as a society, are in a bit of trouble as this sort of shit is getting rather to common for my liking ... I call it the price of progress & I don't much like the cost ... there is no easy answer for this, but at it's core is the errosion of decent human values ...
    ... you know it's a bit windy when you get passed by your own dust ...

    I'm with Scummy.

    Dude - you missed a perfect opportunity to kick another male in the nuts and avoiding becoming disowned by men the world over for 'cheating'. A (very) swift, hard kick in the nuts was more than justified. He had a knife. No rules of decency applied. Scumbags.
