I would have told the kid I'm no RUB-just a well off biker. Sounds like you got it together so be proud of it.

Standby, I have heard that the prospect period is a bitch!

Full-patch RUB is harder to get than 81.

if you cannot pickup the intended sarcasm, GFYS.

All of this reminds me of what I encounter occasionally. I went back to school in my 30's. I now wear, what we called when growing up, "dress clothes" to work. Also, my tattoos are covered by long-sleeve dress shirts and my beard is trimmed (mostly).

So, I'm in "dress clothes" most weekdays. And when I'm out and about, I get a lot of attitude from "bikers" when looking at their bikes or when I try to chat with them - god forbid! I just laugh...the dumb f'ckers have no idea, none.

Honestly, I kinda like flying under the radar.
