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.

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!!

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

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
