Smile Pleasantly suprised

Hey guys, I want to post this here instead of general chat because, well, I just think there is a better crowd in here lol. Anyway, I got up early and trucked out from Dallas to Abilene to scratch another dealership off my HD Tour of Texas list in hopes of getting the 20 dealerships required for the collectors pin. After the 400 mile round trip I had taken a wrong exit around Ft. Worth and pulled over on the highway to check my phone GPS. Pulled over to the side of the highway and put on the hazzards when I heard someone yell "hey". I looked up and see this guy wearing a 2011 Sturgis t-shirt walking towards me from a honda accord. He asked me if everything was ok and if I needed some help. I told him no that I had just pulled over to check the GPS but thanked him for stopping. He said no problem walked back to his car and we both went about our merry ways. Dont know anything more about this guy but its good to know that there is some goodness out there and bikers still look out for eachother. Dont know if this guy is on the forums but if you are, my hats to ya.

For sure, man - I think folks who ride tend to look out for each other.
