Re: posers/bikers fine line

I never took my car license until I was 29 years old, rode bikes if I wanted to go anywhere. i guess I was a real biker back then.

From 29 to 42 i lived in asia, always had a bike over there, rode all over, I guess I was a real biker then.

The last six years since we moved back to England I never had a bike, but I bought my first Harley three months ago. At age 48 I think I'm more of 'a guy who rides a bike when the weather looks okay', rather than a 'biker' as such.

I can't see the point of being miserable and wet on a bike, when there is a nice dry car waiting, but then I don't have any rain gear yet, so time will tell.....

I don't want to add any more chrome,because then I'll be expected to clean it. When I orderd my new forward controls,they asked if I want "polished or chrome" I ordered it already polished,so I don;t have to keep polishing it.LOL
Less time cleaning - more time riding.

I think the fine is ...

If you worry about what other people think while you ride, you may be a poser. Just ride.

Re: posers/bikers fine line

If you make a 6 hour round trip for a fried bologna sandwich, you might be a biker.
If you spend four hours parked in front of a coffee shop two miles from your house, you might be a poser.
If you would rather go for a ride on Sunday morning than go to church because the Big Guy knows where you are anyway, you might be a biker.
If you spend more on bike cleaning products than a good leather, you might be poser.
If you sign up for some ride that you donate money to help someone that needs help, you might be a biker.
If you "live to ride and ride to eat", you were most likely two bikes behind me last week heading for that fried bologna sandwich.

Clean Bike ----- Takes much effort, time, and money to keep that way.

Dirty Bike----- Stays that way all by itself!
