I had a heavens angel stop & help me today.. I'm gonna have arms of steel by sep, if I run out of petrol again. I pushed it 3 miles on the A130 up hill in the sweaty hot sun. Until a biker named John stopped on his gorgeous harley. he went miles out his way to buy me some petrol. He wouldn't take any money for it & then followed me home to check the bike was alright. (shattered spark plug, hence it ate all my petrol).
Just thought I'd share my knowledge that lovely people do exist! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/good.gif[/img]
