Cool hmmph...

I got your biker...

Might as well ask if youre a worker or a driver or a sportsman. Eveyone one with a digital camera nowadays is a photographer for example. So it would follow that everyone with a Honda Ruckus that thinks theyre a biker is apparently now, a biker.

Its a loosely defined term at best. The public image is what the op and his linked story begs to be differing with I think.

I just thought I'd check and see if my sig works...

Does that make me a biker?

No, the true bikers are doing what your avatar is doing

Nope, not a biker. Just ride everyday, rain or shine. Mom calls me "Tumbleweed" because I'm always in the wind.

Having owned various bikes (still kinda miss my '69 Bonneville) over the past (going on 40 years now..ouch) it's always been about wind in my face and seeing somewhere new. Pulling into the parking lot at the bar is always fun too if people check out your bike. I never thought of myself as a (tough guy) biker. Nowadays, I'm only allowed to ride when when my wife says I can. Am I a biker? No, I think it's called pussywhooped!!

Just kidding..... she wants to ride whenever we can.

Nah...just a guy that loves to ride and does not think there is any other form of transportation to get around.

Real bikers don't say "LOL" on forums.
