    These pictures came from a mate and show the aftermath of a driver who either decided to crack up and take out their frustration on the parked bikes here in Canberra (for whatever reason) or had a serious brake/steering failure.

    I believe that the bikes were parked in motorcycle designated parking areas and one theory is that the driver, unable to find a car park decided to wreak havoc. Can't be sure but I think both the VFR and Harley were parked on the tarmac and not on the path areas. Sure did cop a wallop.

    I feel gutted for the VFR owner especially but have no sympathy for the driver who, if guilty of a deliberate act and is caught, better be praying that they are under lock and key in a padded cell.

    Cheers,

    Man, that is too bad. What an a-hole. I guess they could have been a drunk driver as well. A million different scenarios I know. At least non of the motorcyclists were hurt...I am assuming of course.

    On a side note....that VFR must have really been launched far if it was way up there.

    If you guys find the perpetrator, give me a shout. I'm from NJ, I know how to "solve problems" like this. Not to mention that I always look forward to visiting Oz.

    Around here that driver would have had an unexpected trip to the hospital with multiple bruises lacherations contutions few broken bones and would be injesting their nutrition through a straw for about six weeks ....... Then would have to figure out if their insurance paid for damage to the bike or just set their car on fire and call it even.........

    In an effort to educate myself on your perspective of the world so that I might better understand why you are the way you are I provide the following for the forum's reading pleasure:

    Wikipedia background on Elves
    Aside: Did you know Elves are a type of Fairy?

    "Around here " likely means "the Westlands" from wikipedia...
    "After the Great Wars ended, the Elves reemerged in the forests of the Westland, but greatly changed. No longer creatures of Faerie, they had become nearly identical to the Races of Man."
    (underline added - noz)

    additional broader perspectives can be found at :
    http://faerie.monstrous.com/elves.htm
    http://www.rialian.com/elvsdesc.htm or the tree-hugger central basecamp...
    http://www.rialian.com/

    I'm re-reading my Tolkien books to try to better relate to all the creatures on the forum.
