    Media headlines and story making

    Imagine how much this would grab headlines, media attention, and cause a bit of a shake up.

    "Angry Bikers in Christchurch, Auckland, and Wellington take keys off shit Kiwi Drivers".

    Bet the story would be a lot different to the present "Hero" stories.

    Yeah - you may have a point. It appears OK for Joe Public in their family sedan to stop a dodgy tourist but if a bunch of motorcyclists did the same .....


    Police will be issuing their concern over this new phenomenon very soon - it will end it tears.


    Also - would it be OK to do the same to a boy-racer?

    Hmmm so it could end up as - I'm fatting my way to Litter River/Akaroa - pass numerous cars on the way and stop for a coffee - one of those car drivers may have got upset as I passed him/her - jeepers the howl from my pipes may have woken them up and caused them to spill their coffee.

    So they rock up want to know who is riding the black bike and demand my keys?

    Yeah, that will work for them....

    Thankfully all Kiwis are perfect drivers and totally qualified to judge the abilities of those pesky foreign types

    Life would be so much easier if you addressed questions with a simple answer.

    Shit ... most of the motorcycling world would shoot past you on a Honda GB or a Yamaha YW100 ... even if you were riding hard out

    In the long run no good will come out of this self righteous bullshit behaviour - if I am allowed to express an opinion!

    Of course not. Motor cyclists (read bikies) are a bunch of greasy rapist criminals...
