Venting a little, but anyone here ever had to use AMA’s roadside assistance?
I’ve had a membership for years. Never found the magazine interesting and have never had to use the roadside assistance until today. My wife is having a procedure done and I stopped for a quick cup of coffee on the way to see her (hospital coffee bleh!)
Sure enough, got back on the Bonnie and got one slow crank and click click. A few inquiries to other motorists in the parking lot for jump cables with no luck, so I pulled out the trusty AMA card that’s been in my wallet for just such an occasion.
“We don’t provide jump starts but we can tow your bike to a service center.”
Seriously? The simplest thing imaginable and they’d rather send a flatbed tow rig?
Can’t find a reason to renew the membership.
