Plees chek the speelling befour you tipe ... and the correct way is edjukate!! Geez ... You'd think think he went to a pubic skool !!!

Ok, let me define edicate anyway you want to spell it, edicate in a Harley forum is not correcting someone's spelling unless he wants to look like an ***. (Sic)

I have never trailered, so I can't answer from that perspective. But when I am riding, if I see a guy and his wife in a truck pulling a trailer with a Harley, I will wave back to them if they wave. I figure he/they would prefer to ride but are trailering for practical reasons--too far to go for them, wife is comfortable on the pillion for the distance they are going, or too much stuff to take for the length of the trip, etc. I'm 58 and know that age brings limitations but those folks still want to participate in the riding community to the extent they can.

Trailer bikers should hide in shame, not wave.

Y'all really need to lose the trailers. Ride the damn bikes or stay home. The number of bikes I saw being trailered to Sturgis was a joke.

Most times when baggers pass, never see any indication of camaraderie. I just attribute it that they maybe meddling with the radio buttons. It's all about priority. Unless its a pack and the ones picking up the rear will.

It was a joke ... but obviously you're not that intelligent ... Get a life ... "Soft 02" was being funny and I just continued it ... But obviously you have a slightly challenged sense of humor.
