Help. I need a rider in Bulls to do me a BIG favour. I forgot my tank bag after refilling at BP in Bulls about 2 hours ago. I've tried to call the station, but no response (it might already be closed?). I'm about 2h away, and can't go for a 4h night ride to get it.

Is there anyone in Bulls or close to who could have a look or query the guys at the station (if there is still anyone there) for me? It's the one on Bridge St. There are quite a few things in it, including my glasses (which obviously I wasn't wearing!).

No, I don't know anyone in the area.

I keep calling the station, but they are probably closed for the night, so I'll have to wait until tomorrow morning :(

I feel so gutted after what was a perfect week-end!

Thanks so much Chanceyy. I've just replied. I will call the station first thing tomorrow. I don't think I'll be sleeping much tonight. Argl, I feel like an idiot!

That's twice today after falling in front of the sidecar crew at Taupo :(

Pffffew, the bag is with Mowgli now :). Thanks to Mowgli and Chanceyy, I should have it back soon with all the sidecar pics! Aow, what would I do without Kiwibiker?

The funny thing is: I stopped on my way to Taupo on Saturday to help a couple of backpackers who had a problem with their car. They told me how nice and helpful the biker community is in NZ. Well, I didn't think I would have to rely on you guys so quickly ;)

Jiminy helps backpackers.... someone helps Jiminy.

Karma has a wonderful habit of rewarding those who deserve it and punishing those who don't :niceone:
