    turn ya lights on ! Thats it, my god the answer to all our worries !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    So...

    Did anyone watch it? I missed it, might grab a link....

    I can remember quite awhile back some information about our current Road Safety Model, being a failed overseas model, can't quite recall how I came across the info.....

    Why?

    I've actually been reading some of his stuff and listening to what he has to say for some years. I think he makes some quite astute observations. There's certainly no harm in turning your lights on, is there?

    As for making it compulsory for motorcycles; there needs to be a cut-off date to allow the vintage machines to run legally. I said as much in my submission to the Ministry......

    Did any of you good people make a submission?

    Which is why you can't complain when they change rules, regulations and laws in a manner that irks you.
