was at sturgis, seen steven tyler all f@cked up,watched him fall off the stage I would of at least tried to catch him the azz hats up close just watched him drop off.got out of the chip at six am before the rain hit that place never changes a muddychit hole when it rains.MY son and i rode heavy rains from rapid city to sioux falls for eight straight hours the whole time the rubs , dinks,wanna bes, posers,the trailer pullers,( you all know if you fit this catagory) Were passing us at high speeds,crowding us with thier trailers and cutting us off in the rain because once they got arounds us they could not see where we were,we broke down on the west side of mitchell and it was raining so hard i did not see my son drop out i went down the road until i could get under an over pass and gave him some time,After ten minutes i got back in the rain went a couple of miles down the slab where i could turn around and get back to where my kid was,not one of you so called bikers stopped to see if you could help him!!!!!when i got to him i asked him what happened,he said that the power commandergot wet,and we needed to dry it out!! which we did in the pouring rain. im not bitter though because i am a biker,i stop and help fix flat tires and help rebuild motors in the camp ground and will continue to do so.because i have been a biker longer than you have been a poser, rub or dink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I don't feel inclined to put up with that, I drive my car and try to keep an eye out for riders.
Stopping for help isn't anymore what it was once. First, everybody is a cell phone call away from help, second in many countries police recommends NOT to stop for help, but to call professional help instead.
I can understand your rant, but I can't understand what it has to do with trailers. I don't trailer my bike, but it seems it has more to do with idiots than trailers. And those are everywhere.

That's it. Before anyone buys a Harley, they should be required to not only attend, but to graduate Biker Training School. 
Of course the MSF Course will be optional. 
I understand the frustration. Times are changin', that's for sure. Not just with bikers (or riders) but our society in general. I will refrain from providing examples as this is not the Polictical Forum.

Riding a rigid thats 10 yrs old now I find myself on the side of the road now and then! 99oct is right people are not educated the way we were back whenever that was and motorcyles have been in my family since I can remember! I have been passed by many on bikes and in cages while sitting on the side of the road and it is a sign of the times! The last guy that stopped was a bus driver enroute and yelled if I needed help but I told him help was on the way and thanked him for stopping.
I have ridden many miles in the rain and don't really like to ride in it. People don't seem to care you are out there exposed to the elements while they turn their wipers on and heaters up, maybe change the station on the radio! Hell they hardly care about us on dry roads!!! I too don't get the trailer part of your rant and throwin labels on people because they don't do what you do!! I don't sleep hangin on the side of a mountain in a tent hanging on two spikes, in minus temps, wind howling but I know people that do and they don't label people who don't!
I like going to Daytona to Biketoberfest but guess what.... there are people who trailer in from Miami!!! Yep... met a couple a few years ago that did just that! Guess it was too far for em or to hot dunno really but they were decent people!
Its been said here before about being a 'biker' its all about attitude! The ones I know will give you the shirt off their back or 5 bucks for gas if ya needed it. They go home and come back with their truck or trailer if they got one and take ya where ya needed to go without anything required but a handshake and thank you! It still happens and I for one will do that without hesitation.
So here we are again with someone bitchin and throwin labels for whatever reason I cannot and do not quite understand!
