    I know, I was trying to appeal to a wider audience. I got a beauty on my lower back from trying to power slide without a bike (correction: it was sliding along behind me). FYI Mr Silly is what they call me at work after I decided to wear my shirt backwards to see how long it would take for someone to notice.... 2 hours and 5 minutes if your interested.

    Have to say the road out to kaiaua was Okish today. Bits and pieces of nasty on the road but fun none the less.

    Maybe instead of demerit points they should make people ride a bicycle and see how the most vunerable road users feel.....might give them more of an insight to road safety.
    you think it's dangerous for the cyclist's I was transporting a large loader home from Wanaka last week came around 75k corner in a 100k zone to fined two cyclist's taking up the left hand lane when there was a wide strip enough for two push bikes with oncoming traffic, after wearing flat spots in tyres stop short of running the *()&"!£$$% over & all the wankers could say is we have the right to ride two abreast after a bit of chit-chat we parted, way i see it cyclist's should be riding single file & inside the white line on the left hand side of the road in a 100k zone unless there is room for two end of rant

    I hope you managed to get them to understand that the only way anyone would ever really find out, if they indeed were in their "right" to do as they did, would be if you had not managed to brake before running them over. ...and even then they would still loose.

    Or Motorcyclists who would rate right up with cyclist for inconsiderate behaviour

    Has anyone ever tried *555 for cyclists?

    sounds like they are right

    http://www.ltsa.govt.nz/factsheets/01.html

    What rules must I follow?
    ...
    If you're riding with other cyclists, don't ride more than two abreast. Ride in single file when you're passing other vehicles - including parked vehicles, or when you're impeding traffic behind you.
    ...
    but i wonder if that'll be any consolation when they find themselves in hospital?
