What about the great drugs and chicken movies?

Ah yes the sweet smell as you walked in the door to get ready for duty..... Scrambled eggs on toast was always a favourite for the Toaster.

My favourite is the pic in your profile...nice shot of your own shadow.
Brill. I've been taking pics for years for a living and I still (rarely though) get myself in the chrome or something shiny. It usually happens when I'm in a hurry or blown away by the subject matter.

All good. Your bike is too clean, go out and get it dirty.

Yeah I noticed that - glad I wasn't nude, or had chickens running about in the backgroud - I'd be the laughing stock of KB!! There are sheep though.

Took her out for 4 hours on Saturday. Primo ride. Lots of HP coppers in Wellsford. Its been cleaned again already.

Well, I've learnt my lesson, I'll be very wary anywhere between our place on the Shore and Kerikeri, the place is riddled with them.

Saturday was mint wasn't it? Ended up building a retaining wall, took until sundown, spewing. Did get out Sunday, caught up with a few characters at the Riverhead, too short a ride though but then thay always are. Even after our last trip around the Mainland we unpacked the bikes, took our boots off and sat on the couch for a while. I said to the missus "wanna do it again?"

It happened to me a number of years ago -early- mid ninties in my car by the Ellerlsie off ramp on the motorway. While I could never prove it, I would bet good money on it, based on my speed and the traffic conditions at the time.

OTOH, I have got off with warnings in the past, back when they used to do such things, so I guess it comes out even, but it still left a sour taste in my mouth.

We'd rather chew off our own right arm than believe the cops would stoop to that.
Wouldn't we?

Well the 30kph signs aren't a suggested speed, we need more cops at road work sights to slow down wankers.

That's my experience too, have got away with far more than I deserve to. A case in point was on Sunday, coming back from Coromandel in the car. I was coming down one of the long straights between Paeroa and Te Aroha at a fair bit above the speed limit. Brain was at half mast and I simply failed to recognise that a HWP car was coming the other way. Thought I was a gonner but all he did was point down at his speedo as I went past.

I have no doubt there's the odd cop about who abuses his position simply on statistical grounds but personally, I have yet to meet one. Haven't been pulled over for a good few years but when I have, it's been handled professionally and I've undoubtedly deserved it

You wally....the cops set up the signs as a trap. It was total bullshit.

As is this post perhaps? We don't have any 30kmph roadwork signs... Accident signs sometimes, but that is it...

This IS hand on heart,

While it is there, what was your attitude like on the day?

I know this cop from years back, he is ex MOT and a decent sort, worked with him after the merger... but if he copped attitude, well... you know how it works??? Dunno about the paperwork bit tho, he wasn't like that... a straight arrow.

Guilty until proven innocent in NZ.......unless your brown....the it would be racist to accuse you....

**Grahameeboy** · 22nd May 2007, 10:51

Guys, life is not perfect........he was exceeding the 80kph speed limit.........was he doing 111kph, who knows.

So the cop was not nice, allegedly lied......to be honest a relatively minor lie given that he was still speeding.

Why get stressed about it.....you are trying to prove a point because you are cynical about the Police and have got on that anti cop band wagon......yeah it is a pain eh but in the whole scheme of things it is just a nuisance.......to me you are just biting.

When I was suspended for 3 months last year...okay I got a limited licence for the car......I just thought, well I was clean for 25 years and although my 2nd speeding offence was dubious, life is just too short to worry about it and it has made me think more when out riding so it taught me that I am not invincible.

Pay the fine, accept......if the cop was an arsehole, accept that too and move on.

Sorry, I probably deserve a slapping for being so honest but that is me.
