Maybe you should ride more...

Better off posting yet another 2010 Harley thread, you can do one at 24 hours to go!

Where's the popcorn?? I'll watch and laugh at some of the responses though in my spare time.

Because some people need to take a good look at themselves and identify what they truly are instead of what they have built themselves up to in their own minds.

And certainly that can be intelligently diagnosed on an internet "chat forum"..

As Popeye often said, "I yam what I yam" and am content to be. Any effort to prove otherwise by you or anyone else will be futilely attempted. Just be, just live, and just RIDE! (More popcorn please, this may be a while)

Good reply and you know where you stand. Some don't. I would hope that this thread and ones like it will promote a sense of brotherhood and ownership for one’s own life, actions and lack of. Will it? Maybe not, but if it makes riders think, even for a little while, maybe it did some good.

Whatever you are, you are in spite of anything you ride. Seperate yourself from your motorcycle and look at yourself as a person. It's just like the Harley riders who cannot accept anyone who rides a Jap bike too. Who cares, ride what you want.

Those of you who feel the need to "label" people are sadly usually the very same ones who "need" a label to feel complete.
