I did, and part of the reason I found it funny. Not "butt hurt" as some imply here, rather just a Hey, not all riders are guys type post. There are plenty of serious mile riders - both male and female.

As one person stated, it is known to be more of a 'mans world'. I have laughed out loud when getting on my Ultra and am asked "You ride that?!?!?!" Nahhh I just sit and look pretty on it - wanna move so I can back out?? *insert a engine rev here, just to be a turd* LOL
If Mr is riding too he just shakes his head, with a $hit eating grin on his face as we take off.

Cygnusx51 - To answer your questions.....

how do you wave when you’re riding?
Depends…. **** me off you might get a 1 finger wave

Also, did you take the reflectors off of your bike, or leave them on?
Depends on the bike – RK> were all removed when she got a custom paint job. Ultra I haven’t done much but ride the hell outta him.

By chance, what oil do you use
Depends. When doing lots of PGR missions I usually rode my RK> used petroleum based and changed often (every 3k max) as I ran long, hot and slow. I use the Ultra for my longer rides – like synthetic for that.

where do you put your gas caps
You got more than one cap?? Lucky -

do you use a cup holder on your bikes
Yep – as get overheated after a wreck and got a concussion cuz I wasn’t wearing a helmet. Sucks getting heat stroke while out in the middle of no where riding.

does the voice in your head give you cause for concern
No, does yours??

Ever pinched a loaf when riding?
Who hasn’t?? btw… ya know you can’t fart unless you rise up off your seat?? Remember that next time you gotta pinch - don't rise up off your seat!!

I get it, the thread is not about being offended; Puddles is just making an observation.

I call people "guys" all the time-- "hey you guys!", could easily mean either gender.... I don't know why someone would be offended by "guy, gal or girl" . Reported to HR? Are you kidding me?? it's a weird world we live in...gone over the edge. (Even a lot of "millenials" think it's stupid).

(**just don't call me "cupcake")
