random acts of kindness

Sign in to disble this ad
I rode my enduro to school today. When I came out from class it was leaning up against a chain link fence in the parking lot. It was extremely windy and while I was in class my bike must have literally been blown over. Some kind soul came and picked it up and then had the thought to lean it up against the fence so it couldn't blow over again.

I honestly couldn't believe that someone did that for a random stranger. Anyone else have something nice happen to them unsolicited lately?

Why could you not believe that?

Have you never done something nice for a stranger before?

Maybe the wind blew it over there and this has nothing to do with a stranger.

If I knocked a bike over I'd put it back up, as well as check to see I didn't damage it- but if I happened upon one lying down I might leave it, just because some folks don't like their stuff being messed w/at all.

By *enduro* do you mean a Specialized Enduro MTB?

I think he meant the Sledgehammer. You can get like three feet of air on those things.
