Every bar I go to I see touring baggers, and every rider looks the same! Why are they all so damn wrinkly? Is it because they don't wear sunscreen when they ride? With Dynas on their way out, we need to take the power back!
Asshattery from a (likely) liberal metrosexual eunuch. Evidence? For starters...
Clearly the dude has an axe to grind. He's probably intimidated by bikes and folks that ride them. In (typically liberal) response he lashes out at the things that makes him wee himself.
Seems when snivelers write this kind of tripe they are attacking things that highlight or make them uncomfortable about their own self image. That guy likes to proffer the idea that riding is nothing more than a means to publicly compensate for one's insecurities. We ride to show that we are "manly" or "real men". Didn't you know?
Only overweight, insecure, old dudes ride. Who would have thunk it? Funny... The last several times I've been to a dealer, I was impressed with the number of female riders. And no, those females weren't riding Sporty's (like me). They were riding the glides etc. (some of them pretty hopped up). Guess we'll have to start calling all the BT's girl's bikes. Hell, my spousal equivalent is seriously considering taking a beginning riders course. She's 56. Does she have a deep dark secret that she's keeping from me?
I've heard this for years, but it seems to me there is a new bunch of young guys getting old each year.

He's 55 and rides an 883 Iron. To this day calls people who ride baggers "Geezer Gliders". Need I say more?
