I doubt the news would call them posers, rubs or squids so they say biker instead.

+1!

the truth of the matter is that just because you own a bike doesnt give any special title...gets real old when all you hear is omg i saw the elusive 1%er or what patches should i wear...when did riding a scooter become a F*&kin fashion show...

Mind your buisness, dont start sh*t, wear what you wanna wear....and be honest with yourself on what you are and who you are...you wanna play billy bad a&&, someone with check you...act like a human show some respect and you will enjoy riding. Act like your the biker of the year, puff your chest, and play that "what i do is better and what you do is stupid" game and bikers, and other people will certainly check you....so why would anyone want to play that game and be something your not...

"I met a 1%er"
"I'm a badass biker because I rode in the rain"
"If Tommy wears 'assless chaps' (really stupid expression, since there are no other kind of chaps!) or 'fingerless gloves', he's a 'poser'"
"If I wear a helmet, EVERYONE should wear a helmet, or they're stupid!"
"If I DON'T wear a helmet, NO ONE should wear a helmet, or they're stupid!"
yada, yada, yada.....
It just gets ridiculously annoying after a while. If you're paying attention to your own riding, you'll have less time to gawk at other bikers to critique what they're doing.

Let's hijack this thread before it goes nowhere fast and finish talking about the cold beer. I like mine in a frozen mug so that the beer makes an iceberg when you pour it in
