More and more people here on the forum are saying they're "new to the bike scene" or "getting into the bike scene" or "getting out of the bike scene".

Sounds like something a 1970's Yuppie Hippie from San Francisco might say.

Similar to "I'm into motorcycles".

As far as I'm concerned, you're either a motorcyclist (rider and/or passenger) or you aren't and there's no "scene" or anything "to get into" involved.

What do you think?

 

I'm with you... I don't understand this scene crap. Just Friday night bike meet yuppies/weekend warriors who are just on their next fad is all it is.

 

Thankfully there are real bikers like you to set us straight. Thanks

 

Guess it is similar to some calling themselves motorcyclists or bikers. It is just the way people talk about their interest, passion or hatred of something. I think I first heard the reference used to talk about music. The punk scene, the disco scene....etc.

 

I should have just waited for the Goatfather to post.

 

Time to blow this bike scene and move on .......

 

After a visit to the Motorclothes dept of the local HD dealership, you can become part of the pirate scene.

 

I know a person that had somebody ride there motorcycle to bike night so they could be scene there.

 

I like to be seen riding my bike.....

 

I am new to this bike scene ... I've only been riding since 1963 - on my '48 Indian
