4WD ploughs into N.Z. motorcycle rally:
About 100 riders from the Outlaw Motorcycle Club were riding along when a rider and a Nissan Pajero collided, sending the car into the group, hitting about six bikes.
One person died and eleven others were in hospital after a car ploughed through a motorcycle rally near Hastings (Sth East of Nth Island) about 6pm Saturday.
The female passenger on the lead motorcycle was killed.
A rider who arrived about 30 seconds after the accident described the "carnage" with people lying in drains and one motorbike on fire.
"It was very, very ugly. There were people everywhere, carnage everywhere, and bikes everywhere. The people I saw were pretty badly hurt, they weren't moving too much."
The rider helped the driver of the car. "He was pretty shaken up. He wasn't too badly hurt but was holding his arm."
The crash is believed to have occurred at the front of the group of riders on a straight section of road.
"The guy up the front of the bunch was pretty hurt, I heard," the rider said.
The riders were part of a poker run which involves a group of riders and stopping at scheduled areas.

Sounds like that bad vid clip of the 3 guys riding cruisers (w/out helmets) for an advert, and they get scuttled from behind by some impatient asshole. Not a pretty clip to watch! Best described as carnage
