ORIGINAL: The Punisher
Punishergirl and I had been out riding all day and I got a little wind burn on my face and lips and wanted to get some chap stick or something like that. So after dinner we throw on the leather jackets and hop on the bike for a short ride to Walmart. we walk into the store and you would have thought Moses was there parting the Red Sea the way everybody parted andgot out of our way as we walked down the aisles. It's so ridiculous sometimes it's damn near sublime. There are a few who do try to be nice to you, but if your even look like some kind of biker they think your a hard *** and won't even look at you. And this is just at Walmart the Redneck Macy's, the birthplace of the Mullet.

I was walking towards the restroom at a Cracker Barrel in Pueblo, CO when a lady came out of the women's bathroom with her 8 y/o daughter. When she saw me, she gasped audibly, and with a look of sheer terror in her eyes, executed a 90 degree escape maneuver that would of made a UFO proud. I about died laughing.

Punisher, I look at your picture and for the life of me I can't figure out why.

Hey Texas just shoot a few every now and then and it wil last a lot longer. Take Punisher with you I hear he carries all the time. Have fun and enjoy the great respect. But as someone said do something extremely nice while they watch.

I like watching the windows roll closed when they're yapp'n on the cell phone.
I usually click down a gear or 2 to let them know I'm still here, don't squash me!!

Kids from 10 on down seem to love the bike and wave and grin and all. Maybe it'll be better in another generation?
But, for sure there's more than a few 'wanna-be-bad-and-feared' riders that work harder at the image than they do at the ridin.

I got a hundred of em... The best was back when they first came out wit those quick cash cards...I needed cash so we rolled up to a bank,,,about 8 of us,,,and there was this guy doing his transaction,,,,I got off my bike,,walked over to the cash machine,,,and befor I could put my card in,,, the machine spit out $200.00,,,,I looked around and the guy was sitting in his car,,,watching me,,,so I did my transaction got my cash,,,picked up his cash and walked over to his car....he started slaping his locks down and rolling up windows,,,I asked him if he wanted his money,,,he rolled his window down about an inch,,took the money,,and never thanked me....
