Well, I guess I'm a bit slow on the uptake these days...

I can recommend Kiwibike for a try, they were very nice to talk to with a good reputation and were I keeping my bike would probably switch to them now Tim's gone from JB.

I must say I haven't heard anything bad about any bike insurance specialist company either.

The preview of this thread on the forum main page... Why did I read it that you had had your spank bank investigated by the cops....... Was really wondering why you would announce that publicly

And you forgot to mention if your employers at the time looked after you alright?

...Oh, did I mention that my ex employers are a pair of cunts by the way....???

Can you elaborate on this? Did they deny you something that you were legally entitled to?

I've got my bike with lumley,they were the best deal all round IF I put my other insurance with them

I put the insurance of the bike as a deciding factor on wether i'd take the rest of the deal & they came to the party

Anyway, twat goes to court last year and is found guilty, gets diversion and today I get a call from the courts to say that my reparation cheque is on the way.

Did the courts also award reaprations to the council for fixing the hole in the road that was caused by your fatt arse coming off the bike ???

Yes its sad that a fat bastard had to be upended in the street on a cold morning, but I am stoked all up that this has been the outcome.

sorry for editing your post like that

I'd have thought you'd get lots of "spank"!

Nah, seriously it's good to hear that there has been a positive outcome from the whole thing. Sad that some motorists have to put another through something like this before they wake up and take notice of who they're sharing the road with.

p.s. you missed a great feed tonight out at Patumahoe yum yum!
