Don't want to hear the definition of a poser...!!!

Just what is "NOT" a poser only :


* Does he have to ride an old bike?

* Does he ride his bike when it's cold outside?

* Does he have to be unemployed?

* Does his bike have to leave an oil stain on the ground when parked?

* Does he have to be in a biker gang?

* Does he have to have a dirty beard?

Just wondering? Never heard that word describing a person that rides a motorcycle much before I joined the Harley site. What do you consider the real deal? (not a poser)

 

Did you do this last year or was it a poser who started it?

 

I ride because it is fun. I ride because I enjoy the freedom I feel
from being exposed to the elements, and the vulnerability to the
danger that is intrinsic to riding.

I do not ride because it is fashionable to do so.

I ride my bike, not wear it. My bike is not a symbol of status. It
exists simply for me, and me alone.

My bike is not a toy. It is an extension of my being, and will treat
it accordingly, with the same respect as i have for myself.

I strive to understand the inner-workings of my bike, from the
most basic to the most complex. I learn everything I can about
my bike, so that I am reliant upon no one but myself for its
well-being.

I strive to constantly better my skill of control over my bike. I will
learn it's limits, and use my skill to become one with my bike so
that we may keep each other alive. We will become an invincible
team.

I do not fear death. I will, however, do all possible to avoid death
prematurely. Fear is the enemy, not death. Fear on the highway
leads to death, therefore I will not let fear be my master. I will
master it.

My bikes will outlive me. Therefore, they are my legacy. I will
care for them for future bikers to cherish them.

I do not ride to gain attention, respect, or fear from those that do
not ridden or do I wish to intimidate or annoy them. For those
that do not know me, all I wish from them is to ignore me. For
those that desire to know me, I will share with them the truth of
myself, so that they might understand me and not fear others
like me.

I will never be the aggressor on the highway. However, should
others **** with me, their aggression will be dealt with in as
severe manner as I can cast upon them.

I will show respect to other bikers more experienced or more
knowledgeable than I am. I will learn from them all I can.
However, if my respect is not acknowledged or appreciated, it
will end.

I will not show disrespect to other bikers less experienced or
knowledgeable than I am. I will teach them what I can. However,
if they show me disrespect, they will be bitch-slapped.

It will be my task to mentor new riders that so desire, into the
lifestyle of the biker, so that the breed shall continue. I shall
instruct them, as those before me have instructed me. I
shall preserve and honor traditions of bikers before me, and I
will pass them on unaltered.

I will not judge others on their choice of bike, their appearance,
or their profession. I will judge only on their conduct as bikers.

I will stand ready to help any other bikers that truly need my
help. I will never ask another biker to do for me what I can do for
myself. I am not a part-time biker; I am a biker when and where
ever I go. I am proud to be a biker and hide my chosen lifestyle
from no one. I ride because I love freedom, independence, and
the movement of the ground beneath me. But most of all, i ride
to better understand myself, my bike, the lands in which i ride,
and to seek out and know other bikers like myself.

 

How often are we gonna beat this dead horse? And the biggest question, who gives a rats ***.

 

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

I'm a poser. I'm posing as a guy with a mortgage, a full time office job, two kids, who rides his bike to work every day it is over 40 and takes a handful of bike trips for fun each year.

If that's not cool with anyone, they can go f themselves and their "lifestyle."

 

"what oil do you use" and "how do you wash your bike"....sure to see those subjects again before the week is over.

 

How often will we have new members?

Ride what you want, wear what you want, be who you want, and ignore those who try to make you feel less for doing so.

 

Nope. Not me. I haven't been a member all that long. I take it this was asked before from the 1st few responses. I'll search it later when I have time.

You can answer it or just add nasty remarks if ya want. It's all good entertainment to me.

Posers...!!! lol Just kidding.

*Ride Safe

 

Glad to hear you have thick skin. You'll need it with threads like this.
