    People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

    You can rant and rage and what not, I dont care too much just thought I would share what happend.

    So about 20 mins ago one of my neighbours called my home and accused me and 2 of my friends of speeding up my street, faster than the speed limit (50km) which wasnt at all true, the fact of the matter is you only have about 50m to travel from the intersection (which 9/10 you have to stop at) then up the hill to my house.. anyway, after a good 10min argument, she tried to tell me she was worried about the school kids and the children that play up the street and how would I feel if one of my friends or myself had hit one,
    Which I replied, anybody could hit one of those kids bike or car it doesnt matter if they were doing 50km or 30km, it only takes one person to change their radio or turn to look at something or someone and it could happen, anyway she insisted that bikes were to blame and we were a danger to the neighbourhood and the communinity and she was a concerned neighbour,
    Now, just to make this clear, her and her husband and many of their friends are known drink drivers, he owns and runs the local garage and he does all his WOF's dodgy as shit and half cut, then he drives home or does the wofs drunk, so I brought this up to her saying that what If one of the drink drivers in the neighbourhood were to hit a child becouse they were too pissed to react, anyways this started another 10 min DM rant and she still ignored it saying that we were dangerous,

    So I have printed off the NZTA drugs and alcohol limits page off their site that outline the max about of limits for drinking and driving and the penalties etc etc, and I have decided to handle this manor by making a point, one I believe to be a fair one.
    I have put it in an envelope saying "From a concerned Neighbour" wither they know it was me or not I dont really care, Just wondering if anyone has ever had this kind of situation?.
    (The local cop knows about their drink driving and hes just as bad as them thought I would point that out before someone said "why dont you call the police")

    It's easier to agree with people like this before you ignore them. It's politer that way. I think I read that in the Bible somewhere.

    Yah I agreed with her to shut her up but she kept going and going so I thought fuck it, Usually I would go off on a huge rant then go over and have a face to face rant but this time I decided to handle it a little bit better haha

    I see your problem, make sure you are sitting on your bike, or standing next to it while idling when she next has a chat. Then you can just rev it everytime she opens her mouth, it'll be hilarious, and sound neat too

    Just be sure you aren't starting something that'll end with some bastard pushing your bike over.

    I'm sorry, did I miss the part where you said they were police?

    If not, just tell them to go fuck themselves (or if you feel like being polite, that you're not listening any more) and hang up.

    There are a lot of people that mistake noise for speed, your average boy racer for instance.

    Yah, I felt like doing it, in most situations I would do just that, but like I said, the local cop is about as dodgy as their Warrants and they are al good drinking friends, and due to my less than legal riding habits and other bits and bobs its probably not the best bunch of people to tell to get fucked then huss pass at 50 on the back wheel.

    And as for the noise part, I told her that they do sound loud especially 3 sports bikes in a row, and she agreed that it could have been a mistake then went on to say I was speeding Lmao

    Is "politer" a word??

    "More polite" would be correcter.

    Back on topic. Tell the neighbour to fuck off,
    I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........

    So motorcycle noise is a bad thing?

    I listen to a bonnie, a speed triple, a guzzi, a harley and an old ducati going past my place regularly, brings joy to my soul that people are out enjoying themselves on 2 wheels.

    Of course if it was jap bikes, it might be different......
