If you rely on a thread like this to determine if you are a biker then you probably aren't.

If you would rather read this kind of clap-trap more than be out on your bike, you ain't a biker.
If the only reason your reading this junk is your bike is apart, and your wife objects to you banging on it in the living room while the kids are sleeping. There's too much snow/ice on the ground, or your in the process of torturing your wife to find out where she hid the keys, your a biker.
T-shirts are just convienient full coverage bibs for eating sloppy food, or when you have had enough beer to start missing your mouth with the can/bottle.



PS True bikers always wear black t-shirts. Because they hide the oil, grease, and ketchup stains better. A clean white one if the mark of a wanna-be, bug stains being the only exception.

I talked to a guy (Biker) at My local shop the other day that was riding a ridged frame 48 Panhead (His Bar Hopper).He doesn't own a 4 wheel vehicle.His daily (every day) rider is a 84 Shovel Wide Glide.His whole world revolves around His bikes.He works on bikes every day.When He gos somewhere (anywhere) He rides a Harley.He is a biker in My opinion.
If Iknew a 76 year oldone legged guy fromNorthern Wisconsin who's only transportation is a Harley Davidson1936 EL Knuklehead that he rides at least 75 miles every day,365 days a year would that make him even more of a biker than the guy with the 48 Panhead& 84 Shovel Wide Glide ?

I have a couple of those. I think my kids burried them in the yard or something. I could give a rats **** about a plaque. I just love my bike. Personally I could give a rats **** about being called a "Biker" either. I'm going to wrench, ride, wash and enjoy my bikes either way.
