I had a big falling out with AA. Point one: accident damage isn't the same as a 'breakdown' and that wasn't made clear to me until I slipped off on a bunch of diesel going in to Maidstone Services.
Point 2 was worse tho - the regulator/rectifier 'went' on my CB500 - AA came out and offered to take me to the nearest garage, except the nearest garage (in central London) was busy and wasn't able to 'take' my bike for another 4 working days. No matter said AA, that was the nearest garage and that's where they would leave me. Essentially picking me up from one pavement in London and dumping me on another about half a miles away. Useless!
I'm with the RAC via my insurer now.

Someone sent me a postcard picture of the earth. On the back it said, "Wish you were here."
