Saturday, January 03, 2009A SMALL FAVOUR Today, I did a small favour for Lulu, a good friend of mine. A few weeks back, Lulu asked me if it would be possible to organise a ride on a Harley for her sister Deborah, who was coming to Abu Dhabi for a short holiday. What a pleasure said I, no worries - it'll be organised! Hubs most kindly volunteered & just for the hell of it, I asked 'Big Mike' if he'd come along as well. Two UltraGlides are better than one anytime! Lulu has gone to great lengths to ensure Deborah (plus brotherbylaw) have a good holiday whilst they're here. I think that on the day she arrived, Lulu's sister hit the Big Half-Century & so Lulu bought & wrapped 50 individual presents. Day trips including dune bashing, the Ice Cafe, dhow dinner cruises, swimming with dolphins & the car museum - to name but a few - have all been on a packed list of Things To Do. This morning, Deborah was told she would be doing "something different" but was given no more information. She had NO idea what Lulu had in store for her. We agreed to meet at a local golf club at a specific time & as we arrived, Lulu must have heard the bikes (such a sweet sound, even if I say so myself *coff*) & promptly ushered her sister outside. We parked the bikes & Lulu simply said "Well sis, here's your ride!" Apparently Deborah had always wanted to have a ride on a Harley & so today, her wish was granted. After a cuppa coffee & chat about what to/not to do as a pillion passenger, we kitted Deborah out with my jacket, gloves, helmet & face-mask. She really looked the part as she 'climbed aboard' behind Big Mike. Ernie - her husband - took his seat behind Hubs & away they went..................gudugudugudugudug...........roarrrrrrrrrrr! It felt good to do this small favour, but it felt even better knowing that someone else really understands just how amazing it is to ride a Harley. Do yourself a favour; put it on your list of Things To Do!
*contented sigh*
