    Depends on a few factors...

    Who they are
    Where they are
    What exactly is needed

    Distance though is not an issue....
    If your looking at Bike Comms, have a read of this review..

    pretty much the same as everyone else has said.
    i'g go anywhere over taranaki for some one on here or up to te kuiti and down to wanganui.
    if a KBer one needed a place to stay and they were at a loose end i'd give them a bed , no worries ( now that we've moved into the bosses house and got extra rooms)
    when my chain snapped and locked up the bike , the amount of randoms that stopped to see if i needed help amazing.
    They all had bikes or were interested in bikes.
    So if you ever in the area and get into trouble give me a call. my number is on that breakdown forum , wherever that is.
    I've got tools and welders and stuff but i aint a mechanic.
    would take you over to Senseis for that sort of stuff.

    Anyone else? Well I guess since there are so many KB'ers I would limit myself to north shore. But really depends on the specific circumstances.

    i'd drive fookin miles

    i've had the misfortune of binning recently and the help I received from my fellow riders and relatives was waaaay above and beyond....

    we're talking close to a collective 2000km to help get me and my bike sorted, so I wouldn't hesitate to do the same

    Yup its not til you have the misfortune of needing assistance you can appreciate the help received

    As for me I would help out as much as i can .. & distance in the north island would be doable, after all its only wot I hope someone would do for me if i ever needed it ..
