Dude, just agree with him that he is a "real" biker, and then tell him that you are a "real" cowboy. Then ask him if he has ever seen Broke Back Mountain. Highly advisable to add a wink when you tell him this for affect.
Good Luck.

KIWI Shoe Polish. Take care of your gear and it will take care of you. I bought my boots in 1986 and I'm still wearing them (with a mirror gloss shine!).

Take a quick look at this thread in HDF - - use some of the comments to determine who the "bikers" are!
Well it looks like we have 2 weeks left...

RE: what makes a biker?
It's not how you define yourself, it's how you are defined by others.
If you are into the whole label thing (obviously many are), it's how you are defined by your peer group.
Example: You have built a thousand bridges. You have only slept with one goat. What are you?
Answer: No, you are not a bridgebuilder. You are a goatfarker.
It is hilarious to me that what everyone was afraid of yesterday, they wish to become tomorrow. Seems like there is a lot of billy badass syndrome on the internet. Most of the people that post here would be defined by thier neighbors or friends by thier profession.
Example: Jim is an accountant. John is a construction worker. Jack is a barber.
Used to be a biker was an outlaw 3 piece patch wearer. Here's a newsflash. They still are. That's a biker. Me, I ride a motorcycle. That makes me a motorcycle rider.
If you are real lucky, or real good, you might get to be defined by something better than your profession.
Example: Jim is a father. John is a grandfather. Jack is a great grandfather.
In the grand scheme of things, after you have left this life, how will you be remembered?
An accountant? A father? A hippie? A biker?
