My alarm didn't go off this morning so I was late to work. Why is it when you are late, everything you need disappears and you flaff around wasting more precious time looking for it?
Anyway, was not in the best of moods - BUT was instantly perked up when a fellow friendly biker noticed my tail bag was falling off and decided to make the effort to get off his bike to put it back on for me properly at the traffic lights. I didn't even notice he was helping me until I saw him fiddling with the hooks in my mirrors.
OH just had a puncture this morning and a friendly fellow biker was vigilant to notice and point this out to him.
There's nothing like meeting friendly and helpful bikers.
Just thought i'd share the happiness seeing as most peeps usually rant on here! ____________________ Meet the team that will win, Blade, Razor, Blazer and my personal assistant, Michelle and from Romanovia - Fran Stalinovskovichdavidovitchsky

I was also late for work this morning, my alarm did go off but my bike ran out of petrol again.
I would have a rant about it (I'm going right off this bike) but I won't spoil the positive vibe contained within your thread.

Love it being perked up by other bikers in the morning. One guy gave an incredibly friendly 'Salute' nod this morning, even whilst filtering which was a bit silly but certaintly put a smile on my face  ____________________ Bike - '98 Yamaha YZF600 Thundercat Pics

On my way to and from work I use a small section of a dual carriageway and can generally get up to 60-70mph. Bearing in mind I ride an L plated 125, I always really appreciate bikers on bigger bikes coming in the opposite direction giving me the nod.  ____________________ Previous: Aprilia Habana Retro 50cc (beauty), Yamaha SR125 (fell apart), Honda XR125 (nippy little commuter), Honda SLR650 (Geewhizz), Yamaha Diversion 900S (Smoooooth) written off courtesy of a stupid escaped horse.

Bungee your tailpack down because if one falls off and goes in your wheel I wouldn't even want to imagine what could happen...
