RE: RUB living next door
It seems some of you guysmight beelitists.
I'm going to show my ignorance by asking what is wrong with saying "nice bike". Sounds like a compliment to me but perhaps it's some kind of insult to "tough guys". Is this true?
And whats with this RICH URBAN BIKER slur? I used to be rich before I retired and have the 30 year old Rolex to prove it. Why is that a problem. Did I have to grow up on the "wrong side" of town to deserve to ride a Harley?
I ride a Harley cause I like to ride them. I also like to customize them a bit to suit my tastes and that takes money. Anybody got a problem with that?
If that means I'm a RUB, so be it and no apologies.
I still want to know what is wrong with saying "nice bike", and I don't think I'm the only one curious.

I don’t know what you all got to complain about. You all make me jealous cause I can’t even afford to buy a Harley. I’m so poor I have to park my butt on a stool in the driveway and go Potato, Potato, Potato, PotatoROOOOM, Potato, Potato Potato, PotatoROOOOM. Compared to me you all are RUBs.

I have been on that stool...or one similar to it. At 51, I would consider myself a P(oor)UB. I only have one Rolex (can't wear but one at a time anyhow), drive a Lincoln (not a Jag) and ride every chance I can!
Fobar, I sincerely hope you get your bike soon! Let me know when you do, I 'd like to ride with you. I know ofWinghouse where they love me.

I suspect because "Rolex Angel" is a takeoff of "Hell's Angels". Instead, they wear Rolex's because they're RUB, Hell's Angels "wannabes." In other words, a variation of RUB.
Make sense?

The confusion, at least to me, is why the derogatory connotation of "nice bike"???

This post as well as other posts concerning RUB's is too funny! In some aspects we all are RUB's. Hell, if you can operate a computer well enough to find this forum, know how to post and reply, you are too savy to be considered "hardcore" bikers. IMO

Marsh, "nice bike" in the alleged context, probably meant "nice bike", however the defensiveness and jealousy of the reciever caused it to be taken as "nice bike(but of course mine is so much better)". It's not what's said, it's what is read into it.
