"It's a scary thing to be stranded alongside the freeway in a strange
area with no clue what is wrong with the bike and even less of a clue
what to do about it. I want to publicly thank Ron, Grim and Steve D
for coming to my rescue.
When it comes to rescuing damsels in distress, these guys are the greatest!
I was on my way to Albany to meet up with my mother for her 89th
birthday. I made it to Ankeny Hill on I-5 south, when the bike just
quit on me for no apparent reason. No sputtering, nothing. Just died
in the left lane at about 75 MPH. I pulled it over alongside the
freeway and called Ron.
Ron put me in touch with Grim, who came out with his truck and loaded
the Puppy up and took me and the bike back to Salem, where we met up
with Steve D. Transfered the bike to Steve's truck, then headed off to
lunch with my mother and her boyfriend.
Grim got a crisis call and had to head out, so we said goodbye to him ..."

That's karmic payback for Prez Tiny, who rescued my out-of-gas self at Maryhill. *grin*
