Hey guys, Just writing up a little recap of my night this evening!
If you didnt know/werent going into Northbridge last night, Friday night, there was a massive Police Presence in northbridge, Apparently from quality sources (Cops themselves) there were at least 250 police issued to attend Northbridge working everything from Car Checks to walking the beat.
It was quite a bad sight, Everywhere you looked there were Red and Blue lights flashing (Fuck they are seriously bright!!!) and yellow vests waltzing around.
Yes i did get Fined, Obstruction of Numberplate, $50 bucks but ive copped it on the chin coz its a fair call. Its already saved me alot more then that so far so ill pay up and that will be the end of it.
There were good and bad things obviously to this evening, Streets were alot "cleaner" literally with less rubish and not so many fights, however there were a few problems with some Bouncer friends being questioned about use of excessive force etc which was a bit un called for on the police's behalf.
My only real Beef i had with them was that i was picked up entering northbridge on the James street entrance from the north... They had set up in the car parks and hidden themselves around that corner in the bit where it changes from 100 down to 80 and then to 50? real quickly and were picking people up for speed. It was a bit unfair because all the cops were keeping behind a building in the carpark to the right of the road and untill they had your speed and decided they wanted to talk with you they would jump out into the middle of the road at the last second and wave their flashy batton (Thank god for E-stop practice because the officer that signalled me just jumped in front of me at the last second and pointed the light at my face and motioned towards the car park!!)
So thats my beef.
The upside is that i ended up talking with a relatively nice bike officer (He talked... I listened and didnt incriminate myself further) who at least was decent about it. Told me it was wrong to cover my plate (Even tho i didnt know it was covered![]()
) and how there was a big bust because of some new high up cop. Anyways... Id like to thank him for sticking up for me when another not so nice officer inspected my bike and wanted to try pick on things like my rear Fender (Which is stock) and ping me with that aswell... Thankfully the good cop explained that his first bike was the same and that it was the stock Fender and thus must comply etc.
So i hope nobody else got pinged this evening because it sorta bummed me out a bit but i got my Tip's from the boss so that will cover most of it
Hope all the FNR'ers had a good time with no cops on the roads! Woulda been a good night for a ride!
Hope you all have a good weekend and it only picks up from here!
And sorry bout the long post!
