It is entirely possible the bike in question was haunted. It was Robbies old yellow Commando race bike.

Drew, when they do the piss test at my work the person running it may ask you to turn out your pockets to make sure you aren't packing any one else's clean piss. You are given a cup with a screw on lid and are escorted to the bog where you give the sample. The sample is then handed over, tested for temperature then a test strip in dipped and then examined. The results are immediate. No one actually sees your cock. I hated doing it so I made sure I pissed on the outside of the cup as well as in it.

Same for my last job in the oil rig industry man. When I was tested ( And passed) at a race meet here a few years back, They watched like Drew has described. When ever I was tested over seas, ( And passed) they did as per the work method .

I have just forwared email to the office from my communication with a lawyer today on this topic for the good of the sport. As I am NOT an MNZ member there is nothing I can do to act with in the system, hence I forwarded the lawyer communication to the office. it reads to me that Suspicion is NOT legal, Perhaps when this rule was worded, a Lawyer may not have been spoken too about the legallity of it. Test me and any other any day of the week please, BUT SUSPICION? Come on team. Lets play safe and fair together.

Agree that wording of it is totally un fair, so NOT good for the sport in the long run but, I am also impressed that they are trying to make the sport a safer place for all involved after past incidents which is where the new wording has come from. I have sent some Legal Information to the powers that be, so they can see what a LAWYER says about it. I am guessing, that as the rule was written with SAFETY as the key point, the wording of it, may not have been run past a lawyer in the first place? Time will tell on that I guess. But lets not start bashing them for trying to make the sport a safer place, lets work together to make it a safer fairer place for all involved. Man, I would hate to see some one sent home after spending thousands of dollars and due to suspicion only, based on back stabbing actions, which our nation is now experts at, sadly to say.

Bit of a turn around there mate. Is someone from the MNZ putting the screws to you or giving you menacing sideways looks?

Not all Man. Just talking with people and thinking it through, I CAN SEE the intention of it, still DO NOT agree with it as worded, but as said, I do 100% AGREE with legit testing some how if there is any doubt for the safety of all involved.

MNZ has to follow the BS WADA guidelines to get sports funding..

The WADA go by BS American 'War on Drugs' values - to demonise/ostracise even casual/recreational users..

Just wait until MNZ gets to confiscate your bikes, tools, van & all - as illegal proceeds of crime.. ..on suspicion..

Yeah, I can just imagine my old mate Trevor demanding the keys to my van because I'm riding a bike that was set up for someone with a totally different riding style to mine & end up riding it like I've been on drugs.
