    By world standards a small place. RIP.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    I didn't really know him, but on the couple of times I met him he seemed like a good guy. A very sad situation for his family, the guys he worked with and his mates.
    Don't blame me, I voted Green.

    yeah well I called in on his work mates today and it was more than just a job they were his friends aswell, they were not looking well at all...

    ok so the star says this "NZTA" says there has been 15 accos on that corner since 07, 2 serious... canty road policing manager insepcter Al Stewart said "15 crashes at one intercetion over 4 years was of concern"... ANOTHER WORDS as usual it takes a death for action, once again to fucking late, but then again, its just a "concern".

    Now its looking like funeral will be a show of bikes, but nothing set in stone as yet.
    And I will lay my last dollar that the main thing they blame the tragedy on is the fact that he was on a bike.

    His partner is asking for that to happen and I was asked by his employer to post it up here once funeral details are sorted

    Respectfully, I don't believe his name has been released yet. If it has then I'm sure someone will post it up.

    Details are in the Press this morning. I assume all is well to mention now. Funeral Wednesday, ride from Street & Sport 1.15pm.
    RIP Joe
