Fountain Inn, SC United States | If ever there was a reason to be active on this site, it would be to know someone like Rick (#57).
I live about 3.5 hours from Maine-ly Actionsports in Oxford, ME and needed to get my bike there for certain accessories to be installed but had no free time to actually get the bike to them. You know how free weekends get sucked up in the summer. Rick and his lovely wife, who live right near Maine-ly, offered to make the 3.5 hour trip south and pickup up my bike and delivery it to the dealership. He said he was going to be visiting a sick relative about an hour away from me and would be glad to drive the extra hour south to get the bike and ride it back. Friends, this is the epitome of a selfless act of kindness and generosity.
Rick, thank you!

| Washed, waxed and a bald rear tire.
And thank you Jeff for getting me out of that hospital room little quicker.
My wife brought her aunt home after she dropped me off.
Glad it worked out for both of us.

| Friends are always good to have.
Now give me a holler when you want to ride up and buy #57 lunch that would be a nice scoot. Don't wait too long remember the last morning we were in Maine? Brrrrrr |

| My first ride on the Vision was in Daytona 09. A couple of guys took days off from work to take us Northern boys out riding.
What goes around comes around.
Jeff's 8Ball will have all the goodies when he sees it again.
Had the power windshield installed before he picked it up.
Will have full radio hook up, trunk, cruise, heated grips and upper wind deflectors when he next sees it if I remember right. |
