    You musta hit the wrong button.

    nowt came to me.

    I too refuse to use prepay.

    I object to the use of the words "service station" when you are doing it yourself. Should be "self service station"

    At 2am, all stations are either closed or on pre-pay. It used to be the only time of day I could squeeze in a fill 'er up. Got quite good at guessing how much fuel I needed.
    BP on Cranford from my experience doesn't have it. But otherwise, no, you're right. I tank up during the day and do my night rides to Akaroa and back on one tank, just.

    oh yeah, those gosh darned self service stations really get my back up

    (do ya think she's still watching, is it safe to come out yet)

    how about a list of gas stations that DON'T have prepay (preferably in Sth Auckland)

    (maybe that'll bore her enough to go away again)

    wow! Cranford to Akaroa and back is only 150km, that's crap fuel range (or do you mean the high road?)

    oops, yeah, those darn prepays, they really get my goat.

    (om mane padme hum, om mane padme hum,
    om mane padme hum,
    om mane padme hum,
    om mane padme hum, )

    is that enough or should i sacrifice a virgin?

    Of course this kind of thing relies on apathetic Kiwis to get off their arses and make a stand for motorcyclists by letting the gas station know why you have driven out WITHOUT BUYING any gas. Many of you won't do anything about it for just that reason but others might have another opinion

    But But But, why would us apathetic Kiwi;s do that? we love to wollow in our self pity and get on the internet and bitch at each other instead of conronting the problem Go the Kiwi! and we used to call the POms wingers bahahaha Bollocks

    careful maha man, if you don't include the word 'prepay' in your post the gods'll get angry or crazy or summit

    prepay
    prepay
    prepay

    our mother what art in herven
    hollow be thy flame
    thy queendim cum
    thy whim be dun
    for never and never
    hymen

    so where's that list of non-prepays mate?

    we have Caltex Manukau so far..........

    A bit over 160 from memory, and I ain't exactly riding at cruising speeds. From memory I get about 210 if I'm at cruising speed, but it comes down quick when you are WOT.

    Most petrol stations in sth auckland are pre-pay (i used to live there). Only a smattering are anywhere else apart from late hours. Which kind of makes the security argument a lot more likely than any conspiracy....

    Maybe he valued his sanity.....

    we won't fall out over 10km will we?

    holy crap! that's bloody awful mate but what's it got to do with prepay?
