PS......he had a sportbike,,,,if anyone wants to know,,,,lol.

 

That's your good deed for the day. Always, if you see another rider stopped on the side of the road, make sure that he is okay. It could be you and no one to stop and lend a hand.

 

Nice job. I've stopped 3 times for broke down riders. All 3 times they told me to ride on as they had someone on the way. Cell phones are handy things.

Please post a vid of you saying "wowowo" on youtube and post back here with the link.

 

thats the biker code. you always stop for another biker harley or metric.

 

I've only stopped once for a small group of bikers where I thought they might need some help. They did not.

What I usually do is, when I see someone alone side the road, I'll slow way down as if I were going to stop, but wait for a wave or other motion, trying to see if they need help or not. Like I said, I've only had to stop that one time. I'm glad there are not too many fellow riders that have needed help.

But I WOULD stop for any biker, no matter what type/brand of bike they are riding. It's just common courtesy to fellow riders.

 

have always stopped to see if my help was needed...majority of the time it is

 

I always stop for a single rider stopped on the side of the road,even if I'm in my car or pickup,If there are two riders I slow down blow the horn or wave,wait for a sign then stop or keep going!!

 

Me and the wife were going to the smokies and the old shovel let me down in paduka ky. ,that sucked ,very hot no shade ,we had all kinds of people stop , Dennis from Sills HD brought a trailer and took us back to the shop , parts manager Hooper done everything they could do ,thought they had it and by the end of the day Hooper came and picked us up 4 different times the last he helped get us in a motel , the next morning went to try and get a car rental and everthing was closed . called Hooper and he offered to drive us to nashville to get a rental NOW THAT'S SERVICE!!!! Dennis had just bought a new bike and even offered to let us ride it , .. we stop by there every year on our way just to say hi and thanks again YOU DO MEET THE NICEST PEOPLE ON A BIKE !

 

I would always stop. Sometimes people are just lost and I'm happy to help. Or maybe they just need a cell phone to call for a buddy to come and get them. Even though I don't know anything about fixing a bike (that's what the husband is there for...) there are many ways that I can help a fellow biker.

I've always stopped for stranded bikers, always will! Most of the time they need the help.
