Aging motorcyclists - Close Up tonight 30/11/10

[NighthawkNZ:Me]

Well that made bikers look like a pack of wining dick heads...



However wow 119kph you are going to die... and the one that got done when passing the the vehicle...

[Duc]

Those motorcyclists featured would make you proud to be a motorcyclist...NOT.

The pricks have ruined it for everyone by their dumb feckin ATTITUDE.

[Berries]

KB on the TV then.

"Ride it like you stole it HEE HEE HEE" Very mature response to plod I must say
Good editing too, make sure you gather up the real retards for your news item.

"We are not targetting motorcycles, we are just concentrating on them today" - what ever.

There is no disputing that older returned riders are involved in too many crashes, no wonder if they are all like the ones we saw tonight. Fancy bleating about getting a ticket for speeding for the camera. You did the crime, now pay the fine.

Trouble is, two tales of shit doesn't one tale of truth make.

I'm ever the optimist in the hope of discovering some fertiliser somewhere.
Anyhow having seen the, well what passes for news on Close up. I mean I knew it. was going to be shallow but not that shallow. I mean.

I feel an Oscar Wiilde quote comming re fame re publicity.
At least will be keeping an eye for parked up campers etc.

wher are you from............it says new zealand doesnt it!! ha

And did I hear "ah, my speedo doesn't even work...." ????? Along with "I never look at my speedo". Bloody hell.

I was under the impression that a lazer reading should not be taken through glass as it interfered with the reading, but I guess the Police are rule breakers too

Good editing too, make sure you gather up the real retards for your news item.

And while I'm absolutely sure they filmed motorcyclists who showed a completely different attitude, the fact that they didn't show any of them shows the true extent of the shit-fight that we have ahead of us.

Until we can be seen en masse by the general public in a far better light we will continue to push shit uphill.

Balanced reporting? researched story? nope, just some speeding mouthy bikers to make us all proud. In fact the gang member had the best attitude... go figure!

That was the Aprilia Shiver?
Ask Hitcher.... it may very well not work!

[Pussy]

Ah, it's all youse old buggers!

But some of us never stopped!

[greasegirl6]

The cops should be focusing on cars that go too slow, I mean, what the fcuk are you doing goin 80 kph on an open highway and you're not towing a trailor, not heavier that 2500kg's and not behind some other captain slow? Slow drivers are the cause of frustration, and frustration leads to stress, and stress leads to the uncontrollable feeling of wanting to strangle the living shit out of the slow bugger in front of you so you go hooning past with a finger in the air yelling "ya fookin wanker!"

Showing a gang member actually helps as there are few gang members on the road in relation to the bike rider population and the general public knows that. And he had a reasonable attitude - a real dude.

Yepper, and we will win that battle. Of that I have absoltely NO DOUBT!

heard on the wireless...

Dude, I haven't heard that expression since I left Dunedin 20 plus years ago... 'the wireless' now refers to broadband! We had an old radio that had valves, cooked on a coal range etc etc... ah the good old days.
