Having been riding for 35 years It seems the older I get the less I see folks reaching out to their fellow man. Off topic but still on it.

Sad but true!!!! I was born the same year you started riding (I'm 35), but I was taught the code by watching my Dad. He never said "this is what we do as bikers" or anything like that. You do it, your kids see it and then they do it. Good or bad, I believe that's true! I've stopped to help I don't know how many bikers in my day. Siphoned gas and given it to 'em, adjusted linkage so they could get going again, driven home to grab the truck and drove the guy 70 miles back to his house with the bike in the bed. Whatever it takes. By the way - the 70 mile ride home guy's wife made us a WICKED dinner that night! Coupla beers, too...

I guarantee you that my 6.5-month-old will be taught the same things! There ARE good youngsters out there! One of them lives in the southern part of the Twin Cites of Minneapolis/St. Paul! If I see ya, I stop. Period.
