Looking at the pictures of my parents and their peers we are in a sad state.

Also looking at some of the 60's and before bike clubs and guys wear ties or bollo's and matching shirts was kind of cool. But that is me
Only guys I ever saw wearing matching shirts where I grew up where either cops or at the bowling alley trying to hustle teenage girls .

Just ride. Every day. Every chance you get. Make it a point to ride. Before long, you will look like what you are.

Honestly if you are putting forth any kind of effort to look tough youre probably a bit of a wuss. The toughest guys i know and i know quite a few from SEALS on down dont do a thing to look tough. They just look tough because they are. Its hard to explain. Anyone who goes out and buys a bike just to look tough no matter what age is slightly retarded.

Funny I don't see too many old school biker looking dude's any more. Most riders I see look like golfers LOL! Also kids seem to love tat's and BMW does make cars in flat colors. I sure hope this is a joke post.

I happen to like the biker look... nothing wrong with a grey haired bearded man with tats riding a bike... except for ponytails other than that they're HOT!!!! ;o)
