scrounger, I was reading your string about "garage sessions" HD Talking Garage Session - Harley Davidson Community and it alluded to an idea that RichardS had put out there in a previous string about assisting stranded forum members.
I certainly don't want to steal RichardS's thunder or Shanghai his idea, and I would hope he takes the reins on this because he did such a good job with the "Scam Busters", but I figured I'd give this idea a nudge and see where it goes. With a lot of members currently taking or planning road trips, this might come in handy if they are going through your neck of the woods and need help. I know many of our profiles don't indicate where a person is located, so you never know who's neck of the woods you may be in.
Please put me on the top of the list for tools, (I can gain access to a trailer if needed, but I don't have one myself....yet), a ride to a dealership, bring some minor spare parts to the roadside, gas, oil, bailing wire, tape, zip-ties, nuts & bolts, clamps, etc.
I actually did think about posting a thread with a plea for help from a member in the area who might have a trailer, (none of my buds have one)....
This experience has taught us all something though! We need to do something similar to our "Scam Buster" team, and put together a list of members who are willing and able to come to each other's rescue in the event of a "stranding". That doesn't ALWAYS require a trailer, although it sure will much of the time. But, for example, if a local member needs a helping hand with tools, I have a LOT at my disposal, so I can offer that if needed in an emergency. Perhaps other guys, like you, can be available for a trailer ride if needed. Naturally this would be subject to availability and no member would EVER have to "commit" to always being able to help. But I do appreciate your offer, and it's nice to know I have a fellow biker out there who was willing to step right to the plate for me! Thanks so much for that kindness!
