Wow, Solobiker, that's quite a story.
We were on our honeymoon, a self guided bike tour through France, Italy, Germany. After arriving in the Paris airport, putting our bikes together and cycling out (almost getting killed in the Paris traffic) we went for supper in a Paris pub where I left my small bag. It had all of my cash, credit card and passport. Went back 2 hours later and it had been turned in to the bartender, untouched. Saved my new marriage I think.
