Stuff came up with another totally awesome poll today:

"Do motorcyclists take more risks when driving than other road users?"

And you're asking the general public to answer that? I think a village in Auckland is looking for its idiot reporter.

Just for funzies, they could have used these for answers:

1. What is the difference between a duck?
2. Yes they do, I'm a perfect driver by the way.
3. No they don't, and if I vote this option it is therefore true!
4. Who cares? Put some more nudity pictures up so I can go back to slacking off at work
5. Timmeh. Timmay! Limmehlaw!
6. I'm going to misread the question as "Is Stuff the Daily Mail of NZ news" and vote "yes"

We had the first of a possibly annual Catalyst bike ride today. Al, Richard, Eric and I headed out from Catalyst to Lake Ferry. It was a beautiful fine day, with almost no wind. It was the third time I've ridden the Rimutakas and the most fun yet, with it being faster and with more leaning(tm).

I didn't realies how big Lake Wairarapa was. It took us quite a while, even over the speed limit, to get to the bottom of it. We went over the east-west access road and then down to the Lake Ferry township. We had lunch there, before heading back through Martinborough (first time I've been there).

A very enjoyable day's ride, overall. My gear is covered by dead bugs, so I will have to give it all a clean tomorrow.
