    Riding with the commitment of a suicide bomber

    Sitting in the cage, waiting to turn left into the main road into Takapuna at the Milford lights. I watched the lights go red on the main drag, watched the light go green for the right turning lane beside me...

    And then I hear a sportsbike rev up, and - to be honest, I'm a little in awe of this guys attempt to remove himself from the gene pool - and watch in horror as a Honda CBR in Moviestar colours, dodges, filters past the white Nissan stopped for the red, and races through the red.

    The car to my right hit the brakes, as did I to avoid making someone roadkill.

    Was he in a rush? No, not really. We followed him for most of Hurstmere road, watching him fidgit with his lid, his jacket, making jerky movements all over the road.

    So, no comment or judgement from me at all, if you want to be roadkill, you're adequately equipped - no brains, no attention, and best of all, jeans and trainers.

    The first two digits of your plate are 23, if you're in any doubt that I might be talking about someone else. Fucktard.
    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.

    These are the riders that car drivers stereotype us on. >_<

    So did you report him? I would have. An embarrassment to the species.
    There is no such thing as bad weather; only inappropriate clothing!

    No, I figure he needs to work it out for himself.

    Fair enough - as long as he doesn't take someone else with him. Cars might be ok (at least he would be worse off than them) but pedestrians, cyclists and other motorcyclists may be less lucky.

    I'm not quick to report dangerous driving, but I think this incident would have prompted me to call *555 and have the 'authorities' keeping a close eye on him.

    Fair call.

    Hmm. Someone on this site will know him, have a chat with the lad, okay?

    Yeah. Convince him to mend his ways before klingon gets hold of him and is less forgiving than MBB!

    Well done that man!

    We need more people like him scaring the wees* out of the senile residents of milford so that when us ATGATT, law-abiding squids ride through the main drag they'll shuffle off the zebra crossing whispering "he's a bad-arse biker, he is" as quietly as their hearing aids will allow!














    P/T




    *why do old people always smell like wees?

    That's a fair point Mark, I'd hate anyone to think you and I were even remotely from the same species.
