Turned out to be icing sugar - the real shipment got home safe and sound on the stagecoach bus - diversion worked a treat.

What the hell kind of soft-cock calls in a pursuit??

Ya only call it in about 2seconds prior to it ending. (with a bit of luck it was ended by the cop)
Pursuits? I thought about having one once but down south there aint no such thing as a 'pursuit'.

Only a big time loser trys doing a runner down here - mind you, in 1996 I think somebody DID do a runner and get away with it - but we're not sure if a terminal meeting with the Kawarau River counts as 'gettin away with it'.

It was a patched tribesman on a HD V-rod. He apperently was on a drug run and had $3000 of methamphetamine on him before he ditched it into the wind.
