The starter part that was to arrive today... Didn't! Harley Winnipeg did their best yesterday to ensure it got here to the point of regestering a "Bike Down" with Deeley [parts distibutor] which is tantamount to issuing a 'Defcon 1' ....
Still never made it out the door.
I spoke to Ryan at Harley this morning and he said he had been in touch with Deeley who said 100% they could get it out today... FedX assured him it would be delivered tomorrow by 5pm....ONE HOUR AFTER the service dept closes till Monday morning!... I'd be stuck here for nearly a week!
"No Freakin Way!" says I...Unexceptable!
I got Ryan to call Buzz Green VP / Gen/Mgr at Deeley's and to go up the ladder at FedX... "Never take a no from someone who can't say yes!" said I.
I then got onto Harley extended warranty people and spoke to an anus! I was covered for hotel costs for the breakdown in Thunder Bay and Winnipeg. Anus-Head said TB Harley had not sent in the paperwork and therefore I would not be covered....
"No frickin way, Anus-Breath!" says I..... In my mind... that managed to come out as, "Thats Unacceptable!"
He went on to tell me how H-Dealers are tardy with their paperwork and he didn't understand why the Winnipeg dealer haden't sent his in already. "Maybe it's because they are single-mindedly busy trying to get me - a customer - back on the road and are busy with that"... I mused ... albeit sarcastically.
Anal-boy still didn't get it.
I phoned Ted in TB and Ryan in the Peg to aprise them as to anal-boy's position. Both said thay would take care of it and for me to relax....Relaxing is all I've been doing on this trip so far!...lol
I spent the day relaxing by the pool:
As you can see.. it's filled with NOBODY to talk to!... But it's a lovely place to sit and relax...
That is... unless you'd rather be out RIDING!...>_<
I did my clothes washing and drying... Nobody there to talk to either. {Thought: "Is it me?!"}
I lubed my eye today with the drops I picked up yesterday... The infection seems to be going and the eye is returning to normal...at least normal for me...something I reluctantly have had to accept. -_*
The Good News?
Got a call from Ryan who confirmed, with a tracking number, my part had indeed left Toronto this afternoon and he had arranged with FedX to meet their plane tomorrow morning - on his day off - to pick it up, get it to Harley and have it installed before 4pm tomorrow when they close.
YAAA!... if the plan all comed together.
I heard from Ted from TB-Harley who spoke to Anal-Boy's superiors [I'll bet everybody he works with falls under that title] and Ted had a Ref # for me so I get covered for accomodations while I was in TB.
If there is a silver lining... which I - ever the optimist - think about.... It's still colder than a wich's point and it hasn't stopped raining all day today. I have kept warm and dry and haven't soaked any more iPhones.... The next one I have to pay for.
On the down side... it's still raining and Snowing in the direction I am headed and so new challenges still lay ahead....
Stay tuned!... More adventures to come!...Life is Great!
