Roland Leonardo
When I returned to Colombia, I left my motorcycle in Cusco with a person I hardly knew, but the one thing I was sure of was that he was a fellow biker, and that was good enough for my trust.
His name is Roland Leonardo, and for 45 days, he looked after my bike and gear for me while I was in Colombia.
When I returned, my bike was stored in a secure facility, covered in a tarp, and Leo had taken all my gear to his home. Everything was just as I left it.
After returning to Cusco, Peru, Leo (as he likes to be called) took me to my bike, got it running again (the battery was dead) and helped out with some other maintenance (the lower shock bolt) and got me a new rear seat.
The next day, he met Vanessa and I and spent the day with us helping to get her set up with gear for the trip.
I owe Leo a lot, and he refused to allow me to pay him anything for his time, other than to buy him supper one night when we went out.
Thanks Leo. You are an honest and trustworthy friend and I am fortunate to have met you.
We will meet again.
