Constantly calling up Huntly council to tell them of their dangerous roads.
I had to ring to ask when Hampton Downs road was going to be sealed coz they left it as gravel for ages.
I reminded them that at my job down the road there are at least a dozen riders, and it was a hazard.
Turns out they never did seal it, only tarred and metaled it.
Turns out "only" two riders came off their bikes during the rather lengthy time it took to repair that small ass section of road.
Now, theres a really really bad trench been cut into the nasty 90 degree corner coming into Te Kauwhata, just before the railway tracks.
The 1000 or more heavy truck trailer units that drive the road daily have gouged all the metal out of it, and yesterday I watched a 4x4 cross the centreline COMPLETELY into the wrong side of the road, to avoid it.
Its been like that for 3 weeks now, and will require approx 5 number 8 shovels of hot mix to cover it!! Fark all!!!!!
Time to waste my breathe on the phone again.
"I saw, I came, I conquered".
My pet hate when riding, is when you're on the open road, and there's a line of traffic. 4x4's are the worst for what i'm about to describe, and you'll all have had it happen.
The cunts will hog the right hand side of the lane, as if they can or are looking to pass, but they know there's not a shit show and that they really ca'nt.
I'm positive that they're just doing it in spite of the fact that they ca'nt pass, so they wo'nt let you either.
I've actually had one swerve at me heading back to Auck from Towelronga. Not sure what he was trying to achieve other than murder.
I fucken hate that.
Cats land on their feet. Toast lands jamside down.

Curiosity was framed; ignorance killed the cat
Fix a computer and it'll break tomorrow.
Teach its owner to fix it and it'll break in some way you've never seen before.
1. Cyclists
2. Roads around home where tractors have come out of the paddock and leave a trail of shit all over the road.
3. Cars that sit on 80km and then speed up to 120km on a passing lane, then slow down to 80km when passing lane ends.
4. Following bikes that do high speeds on a straight piece of road and then slam on the brakes for every corner but won't let you pass.
5. Road Lice (camper vans).
6. Cyclists
