More pics and a very well behaved bunch indeed
I took a bunch that are on my profile albums under 'Wellington Protest'. Awesome to see so many out today
If anyone would like larger originals just PM me and I can email them to ya or pop them on a disk if you want a few.

Just ride.
Do we have a collection of old calculators, for the donation of, to ACC, just so they can check their sums.
Ok the MP for Rimutaka wants me to take him over the Rimutaka Hill on my Ducati
Issue is I have no spare gear!
How can we find some gear for mr Hipkis to come for a ride???
Says he wants to see why so may of his and his neighbouring MPs find the Hill so wonderful......
maybe AJ should take him on de Buell????
He asked at the big house today but just confirmed by text...shit!
Just ride.
surely 1 of the bike shops could loan an mp some gear for a day?
I've been wanting to say, surely the point to get across next time someone is on mic is this: if the Govt. wish to change the the way the ACC is run, from 'no fault' to 'pay according to the risk you take', then they must do this fairly, not singling out a group because it's easy to administer (since they know who's registered a bike) as follows:
1) Not 'according to risk' but 'according to harm done', and
2) apportion that across the whole society
This would charge lower for skydivers than rugby players (who tend to die in accidents, rather than need x-rays and casts for their broken wrists), and higher for car drivers than motorcyclists (who demonstrably do more harm).
Is this is a strong argument?
And where is our official list of arguments, please, so we can all speak with the same voice when asked? There were contributions being made at the wiki, but it seemed poorly supported.

What can we do; we're only men.
Ok, on Monday I will see if WMCC might like some publicity (and smooth AJs feathers some more) and arrange a small group ride for mt Hipkiss to come along on
Make it a Ridge Runners event, and invite Chris on AJ's back seat, to Toppy's for a coffee and take him home again?
Shit...we will have to behave on the Hill tho!!!!
