One Good Turn...
As some of you might know, on our way down to Cowra we meet three fellow bikers at the Imperial Hotel, Coonabarabran. One had just purchased a GSF1250S and had the dreaded "Bandit Bum " after riding 800ks that day. Poor bugger could hardly walk. I loant him my AirHawk the next morning to help him finish his ride with a bit more comfort. I did not need it. Well, today I received my AirHawk back thru the post along with a very sincere and grateful letter. And ! A Gold lotto ticket for next Saturday night. Thank you Ralph from Bilambil Heights NSW. That has made my day.

And good on him for repaying your faith.
If he checks us out I'll be on my best behavior
Re: One Good Turn...
That was a nice gesture, on both your parts. I'd hope for someone that nice to do something to help me out in times of trouble too. I believe its called Paying It Forward. We should all try doing this when out riding, give us all a better rap than what we're getting these days

Better not send me a Xmas card - I'm not very good at sending them out. Did they guy say in his letter if the Airhawk stopped a 2nd dose of tyranasorearse?Hammy wrote:Thanks guys/gals.

Re: One Good Turn...
Pretty sure it must have. He thanked me for a very enjoyable ride home. Given the prices though. I would opt for the seat remodeling first. AirHawks are not cheap. By the way. That guy that we meet at Parks with the 1600 BMW had an AirHawk. Go figga.Ewok1958 wrote:Better not send me a Xmas card - I'm not very good at sending them out.
