I grew up in a 'share cropper's' family, in SoDak. We were 'dirt poor', BUT I didn't have a clue, til I joined the Navy.
Then I spent the better part of 15 or 20 yrs, schlumpin' 'round on filthy, ratty scoots. In '95, I quit drinkin', made a promise to me-self, and in '99, I over heard someone call Momma and me, "RUBS", (whilst on a 34 yr old chopper
) at that point in time, I knew I had FINALLY made the corner.
I very rarely wear 'black' outside of the grudge (cept for leathers). It costs me no more, to look 'respectable', than it did to look like a 'dirtbag biker'.
I don't sleep under overpasses, pickanick tables and in culverts, no mo'. I OWN A TENT, now, and a dammt nice one, at that, PLUS one of those 'air mattresses'.
NOW, I still ride, hang 'round, and am a 'known associate' of many 1%ers and NON-RUBs. And when Momma and I hear someone use the "RUB", yuppie, term, we jus'
, kick the ol' pan over, and RIDE. So, THANK your 'riding bud's', for MAKING MY DAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"We jus' sat there, smilin', sittin' on that bag o' seeds"
Things (AND ppl) are NOT always "what they appear".
Would you guess that 'some' of these, are ministers and pastors? And some 'rather well to do'?

Start a conversation? Look at your post history. What converstation have you ever been in except to make sure everyone knows you are a biker and everyone else is a poser?
