I wish I was a RUB. I'm newly married w/ a brand new house. Got a bike that I own outright but I want a newer one that runs more reliably. So if anybody is willing to adopt a BAB (Broke *** Biker) and give me a good deal on a bike, or a loaner till I can get one on my own I'm open for takers.
I would like to be a RUB but no one has every clarified how much money you have to have to be rich within the context of biking???? I really don't feel rich but I am trying....... LOL
Seems you haven’t been here that long, you forgot a few things that rile folks up:
What oil do you use
Do you wear chaps
Loud pipes
Do you wear a helmet
Etc.
Now with that said, you admit that you know this topic riles folks up, yet you post anyway. You said you’re proud of your title (mighty proud) so it seems you really don’t care if other folks dub you a RUB, so with that said I guess what I’m not getting is the point of this thread…are you bragging?
You forgot an option in your poll…”who the hell cares”. I only care if you’re an *** or not, the rest really ain’t all that important.
Looks like we can add RUB posts to that list as well. My sincere apologies to anyone who was offended. That was not my intention and I admit I didn't make a clear point. In hind sight a pole was a bad idea.
I was riding into the office this morning feeling good about riding my new Harley and was thinking about what rich really means. Contrary to what you assumed from my post, I don't have a lot of money and I had to finance my Harley. But, I’m rich in so many other ways.I’ve just seen so many other posts that belittle people for feeling the way they do about the things I listed.
Point is this, Yes I’m a Rich UB, not because I have money, but because I love the things I have.
When I first heard the term RUB, I thought it referred to those riders who ride with both feet off the boards/pegs for 100 yards after taking off, nearly "rubbing" the pavement with their loafers,dockersbunched up to mid calf and white socks reflecting the sunlight. Actually, I guess what I just described is a RUB...
