**bmz2** · 3rd March 2007, 01:11

came through the strand this evening at 9.30pm to ride to mission bay to test the beast , got into the strand ,and biker downed at the st georges bay and strand intersection , cops waved me through bike is a mess , hope the rider is ok , he or she has taken a bad one, sports bike in a pile could not see the make , i keep saying it ,riders have to take more care , in saying that the rider in the strand may not be at fault, kiwi don't have wings we can not fly

, but sport bike riders pass me if they where in a f1 race

, again i hope the rider is ok , SLOW DOWN AND THINK ABOUT IT, I LIKE TO SEE RIDERS GET PAST 40YRS+

nasty section that bit... I came as close as you can get to actually having an accident, when a car shot out blind, during the day, crossing traffic. How I didn't get taken out... mostly luck...

Some interesting 'non-biker' perspectives in that link.

This one kinda sums it up........'drivers dont see the bikers and some bikers take to many risks... '

Hope the guys ok.
