    I've learnt to hide the pain inside, open the throttle and ride away.

    So it would appear that 'the rest of us' is the minority in this case, would you not agree?
    Oh I don't know. It's Friday night ... it's been a hard week ... I don't want to think any more. The only traffic density I struck today was the woman who I saw looking at me in her passenger side mirror and then who moved into my lane anyway without indicating just as I was pulling up beside her.

    Usually it's busier around 9 though... But I'm not saying there isn't any traffic at 7.30

    She must have had a hard week as well I guess

    Same at 0715 coming down the Northern. Usually backed up as far as that park and ride thing. No queuing cages 'til Tristram Ave
    It's only when you take the piss out of a partially shaved wookie with an overactive 'me' gene and stapled on piss flaps that it becomes a problem.

    It will be because most of uni students are off for exams, should be good for the next few weeks, its always easy to tell when Uni starts up again

    One benefit of the high (LOL, in 3 months time I'll consider it low!) gas prices is that I can actually get some sleep at Joliets flat in central Christchurch over the weekend.

    It was funny, as I was driving into town this morning thinking about the lack of traffic on the road I turned on the radio and they were commenting on the lack of traffic on the road.

    Bloody disc jockeys, useful as ever.
