the only thing i have to say is these are gaysauce !!

 

Not for me.

 

I had at work the other day tell me a "real man" doesn't need to wear leather and I was a sissy for wearing my leather jacket in. He also said a real man could let the bugs bounce off his eyes. This from a guy on a 1300 Yamaha that tells me my Harley isn't a real bike.

I wear either a full face Snell approved helmet, or my half helmet with a half mask on to keep the dirt out of my mouth and nose. They're doing a lot of construction on the road into work and I'm in the desert with strong winds.

Around town it's just my half helmet and sunglasses. I carry a toothpick for the bugs.

 

I think that guy reads too many comic books, RIPbiker13.
I would have told him that he had me confused with someone who valued his opinion.

 

I did one better than that. He's an Ex-Marine (if there is such a thing). I looked down at his leather boots. He said they were Marine issue. "So you're saying Marines aren't real men, because they wear leather?" I asked him. He was clearly pissed as he stumbled on his words. The conversation was over, and not a word from him since.

However I'll admit, I like that response also lol.

 

Not my cup of tea either.

 

Darn, I'm a poser, really.....Ok, well I kind of suspected it anyway. Well this poser purchased a hard plastic (polycarbonate probably) face sheld last year at Fayetteville and I really like it for cold weather when I am not wearing a helmet (most of the time). Its kind of like a big set of goggles that fit over my poser glasses, that continue down over my poser face and ears. I don't remember the name but will look if you are interested. The goggles part has replaceable lenses for day and night riding. My buddies laughed until we headed back to Eureka Springs at night and it was about 38 degrees and they had no face protection (real bikers I guess).

 

Tell him real men don't ride yammies, either

 

I was at BBB last year, and on Sat night the ride back to Hurricane Hills was cold as hell. It had to be less than 38*. LOL

 

hmmm,

looks like it would be quite popular with the " boys " in the Pride Parade down in the Castro
