    Good to hear you survived your first off. Bikes are replaceable so being able to walk away is a GOOD thing.

    Put it down to experience and keep riding.

    ''A deus ex machina (Latin IPA: [ˈdeːus eks ˈmaːkʰina] (literally "god out of a machine") is an improbable contrivance in a story. The phrase describes an artificial, or improbable, character, device, or event introduced suddenly in a work of fiction or drama to resolve a situation or untangle a plot (such as an angel suddenly appearing to solve problems).''

    Sometimes real life is better than fiction.

    But you have had your quota for the year - there is no magic fix for the RAV4.

    I think it has been mentioned, however allowances do need to be made for people who are not that used to computers. We can not all have perfect punctuation.

    I'm always pleasantly surprised at the comradery between motorcyclists -glad you got to experience it even though the circumstances were not the best!

    You do realise that you are going to have to pay it back to someone else at some stage
