    I don't know, every pint I have after work adds about 20km/h to my top speed on the way home so maybe they are on to something? I will take a lower alcohol limit if it means a higher speed limit. We all know that bikes can go from 104 to 160 to 104 in an instant to make a safe overtake so if they are going to start modifying laws by user type then this should be a goer.

    I used to like Trafinz. Their conferences were a big piss up which is kind of ironic. Here is their actual submission. I am quite surprised that they have singled out us as the group to be concerned with. But then the president works for Wellington City Council, so it all becomes much clearer. Fuck, they must hate you lot up there?

    I will start asking about where I can get hi-vis Yellow Star's of David made.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Now you have the right idea. In all my many years of drunk cycling I'm yet to crash when pissed.

    But the caffeine counteracts the drowsiness from the painkillers for my bad back. Better to be buzzing than nodding off

    You would, as you have pointed out, be pretty stupid to put yourself in that position. I would have thought the problem was what the other guy decides to do?

    nope, the death penalty for any and all offences, keeps things simple, no arguments about appropriate sentencing, they are all inappropriate.

    You don't need to - outlaw gangs have perfected the motorcycle version and its the 3 piece back patch.

    Death penalty for adultery.
    Death penalty for insulting Islam.
    Death penalty for women not dressed modestly.
    And death penalty for whatever other bullshit they can come up with.
