    Dam we complain if a biker speeds past us up the middle because it gives us a bad name , but this doesnt yea right, anyone that runs from the police is an idiot in my book.

    That's what you get for attempting a runner on a Harley.

    Wise words young padawan. How's your licence these days?
    In space, no one can smell your fart.

    Sitting quietly in a cupboard at LTNZ, while I ponder the foolishness of heeding Big Dave's advice to hand it over with a smile.

    In that case, that's what you get for attempting a runner on open roads with nowhere to hide.

    How'd he get caught? Just failed to go fast enough? Those HP wagons can sit on something over 200 quite happily.

    No point doing a runner if you don't have an immediate route and destination in mind.

    I feel you need to tackle this scenario on a case by case basis..... While I don't condone running sometimes it's for the better

    I feel you are wrong. I know some extremely talented riders who lost 2 years. It's a smaller bust for DUI.
