    Gentlemen,

    Could I suggest rather than having a stoush over whether The One is a 13 y.o. on a nifty 50 or whatever the original allegation was, might it be easier if The One could post a pic of himself next to his bike with a "I love Kiwi Biker" sign or some such.

    This would satisfy the curiosity of members, and remove the need for any sort of confrontation.

    Realistically, even if you did have a punch up over it, your both going to be wearing padded protective gear, and would have a hard time doing any damage to each other.

    As for Mr TheOne (sorry, it feels gramatically poor to call you just 'The One') may I respectfully offer some advice?

    All and sundry are welcome on these boards, indeed their strength is through the diversity of their membership. However, as in all social groupings a culture will develop. A culture will has certain rules, conventions, and unspoken understandings.

    I spent a few weeks lurking to get a feeling for the culture before I started posting, and even then I did get a bit of a ribbing with some of my first posts. This is much the same as you or I would expect to occur in a social group in real life.

    What I feel has happened is that you may have misjudged the culture of the group with your original post. Don't sweat it, this happens. But it's up to you what happens from here.

    If you want to get along with the people on the board, then you might have to accept that the general concensus that your behaviour in this instance was not acceptable.

    I'm sure you've got some slightly less dangerous stories to tell us, and if your keen to write them, I'm keen to read them.

    But it's up to you how you want things to progress between yourself and other KB'ers.

    oh man. it can get a bit sad at times. We all agree that The One did a bad thing. One can only hope that hes like the rest of us and learning. Speed can be tempting at times and if we were in his situation (blasting past a cop) at that speed I might even think "shit im fucked now, ill keep going". I did like his juxstapositional response and wished id brought popcorn as well (microwave stuff aint too bad) but his responses dont seem to be that of a idiot savant so lets cut him a break and leave it where it stands.
    A little quote (if i remember it right) from a book i saw today, im sure someone here knows what its from, probably jrandom

    "heres a simple test to see if your mission in life is complete. If your alive it isnt."

    have a fuken awesome weekend people.

    It will make everyone feel better if they go out west (if they live in aucks ) then up via kaukapapa to welsford then out thru mangawhai to waipu (waipu straights are policed so take it easy) then shoot out to russel via the east coast (awesome views) and lots of corners, then over the ferry and thru paihia up to kaikohe and back down thru dargaville and return to aucks via kaukapakapa. will take all day and scrub your tyres all the way out. but highly recommended.
    anyones else done it ? oops off topic but i think its been beaten enough, dont you ?

    well been there done that, if u speed its up to u, and its u who feels good and also u who'll feel the pain when u stuff up. But... if you are clever you won't have posted on a forum what you did. As there is probly a log on this forum that records the IP of the person posting, traces back to an ISP address. With proper warrents ISP will tell the cops your account details, then with your nicely written summary of your offences on this forum they'll come and cuff u up and then there won't be no fun anymore would it?

    Plus in a few months time google will have probly indexed this forum, then it won't be hard to find out about you.

    Please don't tell me that this has diffused. I was negotiating the movie rights with Peter Jackson -- "King Nong" -- and planned to get international satellite coverage for the rematch/sequel "Otaki II -- Revenge of the nerds!"

    You guys make me laugh, and do you really think the cops will waste their time getting a warrant, with ISP. What are the gonna charge me with egg nog, writing a dangerous letter at speed. If you knew anything they need a time date and place. Think about it.
