FINED! At Kilkivan.
Tom, Joe and myself had headed up to Noosa to skate the hillclimb. On the way we went through Eumundi, and through the back way up Sunrise Rd. We found a really good estate with one road that you would hit around 80 or 90kmh. None of us wanted to do it as there is a moderatly sharp corner at the bottom and we dont have the gear. There were some fun fast runs through the estate though. We got to Noosa hill climb and did it twice because its slow and alot of walking involved, so we thought we would head up to Kilkivan as it has been talked about quite a bit. We got there and thought it was pretty epic, did it twice and was moderatly fast, maybe 60 65kmh. Walking back up the 2nd time and saw a lady talking to a guy slashing the grass on the side of the road. Kept walking and he told us that she had rung the cops. So the cops turned up and we got fined $30, well Tom did but myself and Joe were fine because were only 15.
He also said " Tell yourselves and your mates if your here again and i catch yas we will lock you up"
Theres the official warning haha!

We didnt have a good look around Eumundi, but just one estate on sunrise road going out of Eumundi. Was quiet as because there is no houses in there. Was great fun though.
We will have to go out there during the holidays and exchange spots!

Yeah it was pretty wierd but its such a small country town I would be surprised if he wasn't watching the cricket having a beer before he got the emergency call out to action.
A load of shit, and I could have probably done better to fight it but country cops CAN be absolute fuckheads, and this guys was certainly one of them, and it didn't seem worth it at the time.
Does anyone know what the second time penalty for this offense is? I want to go back there but if there's a risk of getting caught and losing demerit points I couldnt chance it aye. It was a heap of fun there.

As an outdoor government worker (National Parks) I can tell you that thongs is a serious OH&S no, no. There is no way he was on duty if he wasnt wearing closed in boots. I would have told him to cram it and bombed it again. Like Matt said it's the cheapest fun you'll ever have and as for locking you up, they are'nt even allowed to confiSKATE your equipment. It sounds like a bit of a one off thing anyway if the lady was just cruising by.
Give em a race down the hill, car VS. board.
Peace

The second second time you get caught is the same as the first. I have been caught over here by the same cop 3 times, each time was a $47 fine and thats it. Possible loss of demerit points if your not following the road rules or speeding.
