    Havn't yet seen Mr L Tooman, or any of his Waikato colleagues on the gravel roads yet.
    "Why is that"? you ask.
    Because its the safest play to be on a bike.
    (cept for creeks)
    The bloke has probably overeacted, more out of frustration than anything else.
    But lets also be honest here. Akld riders do use Waikato roads as race tracks. Simple. Coro loop anyone?
    I have also been on a couple of Akld runs sth, and the pace on backroads on Sundays is pretty crazy. Kids are playing/riding horses/walking dogs etc, and a GRPWXTSR80056 comes screaming round a corner just in time to avoid a John Deere crossing the road. (admit it, its happened to you).
    Use the track days for that, ease up this summer,(especially with hay making etc going on), and live to trade up to next years models.
    Simple really. Or do it on your own turf. Akld needs the revenue to build roading for the Rugby Stadium that will be ready in time.

    Fact is . . . the truth does hurt when it hits home.

    Brett is right (again and again), a shame that those that need too, don't listen to the message.

    Life is dangerous enough without living on the edge - those that do, do so at their own peril.
    Oh the irony!
    With all due respect Patch, you are one of the loosest cannons I know.

    I say with all due respect, because you are a nice guy and you do have skills and can pull a mean wheelie.

    But I have seen some pretty bloody dicey decisions from you, e.g. pulling wheelies past other bikes in the same lane through the middle of a funeral procession. Overtaking on double yellows on a wet road at dusk etc etc
    Yet you are prepared to pontificate on others.

    Now where's my mirror?

    Mr Tooman says technology has moved on a bit since they last rode.

    Yeah, it has. This guy should talk to a few of his own Motorcycle Mounties, bikes now may well be faster but they are quantum leaps ahead of bikes that these "born again riders" would have ridden 20-30yrs back. I learned back then (andhaven't ever stopped riding) and rode some of the early superbikes (Z900's H2 Kawa's and so on) and can say from experience that the advancements in frame, suspension and brake technology and most significantly tyre technology have made riding safer from where I sit. I firmly believe that todays bikes are untold easier to ride and have much higher safety limits so this bollocks about technoloy improvements being an issue is just that, bollocks. Like I say, these are comments made out of ignorance not knowledge.

    Have not read all of this thread so what's the general opinion of KB biker cops to this? Have they remained silent to this generalisation, or have they jumped to the biker communitys defence as they do when their is a derogitory generalisation against the police? Now where's my toilet paddle?
