One issue I'm seeing come up at the moment that we need to work on more is cornering lines.

Is someone able to bring some tennis balls along, so we can set up a course to work on cornering lines?

**TOTO** · 20th April 2011, 17:42

I got the balls with me. will see you at car park at about 7:30.

There was some discussion about lane splitting last night, and a request to see the letter I got from the Police about it. This is the post that contained that info:

I need to be a bit careful, because different people mean different things with those two terms. let me refer you to the Wiki for what I think the two mean:
http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/wiki/Filtering
http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/wiki/Lane_Splitting

So based on that understanding, yes, different laws apply. The Wiki documents the laws for both cases.

including sustained loss of traction.[/QUOTE]

Sustained loss of traction as an offence has to be intentional, not just being in a hurry and as an unintended result the wheels spun up.
