I take it that even if the huggers get this through it has no affect on State Forests and our access there.

STM

If they can get legislation through that directly effects private property usage a concerted push by them could also end in a blanket ban in state forests/crown land too, in a worse case scenario.

Well there you go. All stories have several sides to them. I have been waiting for you to find this thread Bruce. Being on the coal face so to speak, you’d know exactly what went on.
Cheers and thanks for your imput.

Ollie has to earn his stripes yet!! Although after the weekend he is one step closer to acceptance.
Once he learns to start it we might consider being his friend. :laugh:

The crap that TB and Micknmeld give each other to try and hide a deep love that we could never fully understand.

Pete, you’ll keep. :angry: :laugh: It is a XR thing, that until you own one you will never experience the cameraderie that goes with it. I dont think it happens in Kato world. :dry:

On another note: Many of you may be aware that I work for a newspaper. In this paper we publish a Column called “Boofhead of the Week”. Today’s edition’s “boofhead” reads as Follows;

BOOFHEAD OF THE WEEK

IT would have been very funny to see.
A colleague of boofhead was on a recent motor
bike event with about 60 other similarly interested
adventurers.
With a large pantec truck in tow filled with supplies,
the group had stopped at a park when the local
police took a bit of an interest in the ‘bikie group’.
Explaining to the officer that they were law-abiding
citizens with registered bikes etc, the discussion
was broken when one of the bike boys decided to
‘throw some wheelies’ around the park.
The lawman was, apparently, not amused, particulalry
when the offending rider came off in a cloud of
dust at the lawman’s feet.

The latest developments in Kyogle certainly are a concern for all of us who have access to private property for recreational riding. We are lucky to have 640ac to ride on but we are still mindful that we do in fact create, what could be deemed as offensive noise by the neighbours. We don’t take it for granted that it is our right to ride all day every day making a general racquet, as I am aware that, not everyone appreciates the sound of a dirt bike at full song.
I recognise that the neighbours have the same right to peace and quiet as we do to do whatever we want to do on our property, reaching a balance is the important part. We are lucky with the neighbours we have and they probably wouldn’t complain but there is no need to abuse this status quo.
Recently my brother and I went fishing near Wauchope and not long after we got there late in the afternoon, someone fired up a big bore dirt bike (bloody loud) and proceeded to ride around a property nearby. At first it didn’t bother me but after a while as it got close to dark, I started to think ” wish that bloke would stick that bike up his arse”, and I like dirt bikes, so I can only imagine what the people that have to listen to that noise on a regular basis are thinking!
Somehow, as more people move to the bush looking for a tree change, the more we will be targeted, so long as we have hoons with the “stuff you mate” attitude, that think it is their god given right to make as much noise as they want, among our ranks.
I dont have the answer to this dilemma but a bit of respect goes a long way.
AS for the dead beats like the anti trail bike groups mentioned above, that have nothing else to do but travelling around targeting people and stirring up trouble, really need to get a life.
We call these people SIFS (single issue fanatics), we get them in our office banging their respective drums everyday and they are the ones we should worry about, as they seem to receive some perverse satisfaction from making someone else’s life a misery.

For the fear of being called tight, I will admit I don’t buy them. For good and honest opinions, I hit places like OBT and a few other forums for my info.

I had a subscription from some mag and they are all still sitting here unread by me.

[Mick DMember]

Extreme measures there Dusty, I would have sold the dirty old Kato if it was me. :laugh:

Glad to hear all is well though and that you are on the mend. Good luck with the recovery mate.

[Mick DMember]

Yeah kudos to all. :laugh:

TB needs a mention here, he was the one that went cap in hand and organised most of the booty for the prizes and auction. Not always an easy task.

[Mick DMember]

Hey Tony, it looks like you may have been following STM as well, by the looks of that other crap on the front of your bike.

[Mick DMember]

OK guys.
Axel…your tent has turned up. It had fallen down between the bike crates on Moose’s truck. I will PM Moose’s ph number to you and you can work it out from there.

Boulder…….Moose also has your tank bag, it was also found with the tent.

[Mick DMember]

OBVIOUSLY TOO CHEAP………SOLD

[Mick DMember]

Sounds like Sam13 had a good time. :cheer: Good onya Sam. Glad to see you stepped out of your comfort zone and come up trumps.

[Mick DMember]

I have been following this case for nearly a year. Mr Blue is the man at the centre of the storm. I will round him up for comment on the progress of the proceedings.
