Default The "Walk"

When I was home last week I stopped in at my favorite watering hole for a drink and some guy was in the parking lot and asked me why I was riding a Harley. I said "what do you mean"? and he told me that I don't walk like a biker so I shouldn't be riding one. He said I walk more like a tennis player and I should sell my bike and buy a tennis racket.
I'm very upset by this because I don't like to play tennis and I don't think I would look good in one of those lil skirts.
If I don't get the walk down I'm afraid I'll have to sell my bike. I've been riding Harley's since 1969 and really don't want to stop

Can anyone describe how a real Biker walks for me so I can fit in better?

It seems like every time I turn around it's something else. This Biker thing is just getting way to complicated.

Please somebody help me.

Shove a stick up your *** and you will probably walk like quite a few of them.

LOL Iron....LOL

well lets see, not really sure what the biker walk is...since well not really sure who the bikers are....see there are a few of this type, and then a few of another type, and so forth, at the end there is a whole ton of different types of bikers that all ride cause they love the HD and the riding.

I would not know where to turn, and which group to bike to be the one to determine the real biker walk style.

Maybe the safe bet is to watch a few old western movies and walk like the ol' cowboys did in those movies, I mean can't go wrong with the cowboy walk....

Noone can complain about your walk and you can keep the harley and continue riding:P

Ya should have ask this dude too show you just EXACTLY how it it is that a real biker does walk. I'm sure that he knew all about it. Sounds like a first class A-HOLE to me!

I tried that but when I got back on my bike it made me belch and it also made my eyes water (not very biker like). I suppose I could just put it in when I get off and pull it out when I'm ready to ride but that seems like allot of work.

Talking

Sounds like he was lOoking a lil' too close at your walk. Maybe he was just flirting.

With a name like "IronAss" you just have to expect this sort of thing . . .
