Between Locksley Ave and Avonside Drive. Just before the Arawa Canoe Club. It looked like one of those white baiter chaps parked his 4X4 to close to the rivers edge. :shock:

Maybe he had a feed of some of that white bait before parking up. I wouldn't eat anything that's been in that river! :puker:

I kayak down the Avon often. I'd be to affraid to put my 4X4 in it (not to mention getting a heavy fine) there's so much rubbish in it! You might get a flat tyre!! :shock:

Here's a link to the video clip of the tow truck driver trying to pull it out. He finally uses his winch.

I nearly bought that surf! haha, took it for a test drive and everything. Slow as a wet week though. Had thoughts of supra ing it....

A surf in the ocean would be a little more ironic.

Really?

Do you know if it's the owner standing on the tow bar in one of those pix? He's wearing a cowboy hat. :scratch:

I thought the owner was the guy in the jeans/gummies in the other pic, and the other guy was from the second tow truck :?:
