JOKE ALERT FOR ALL YOU SENSITIVE REAL BIKERS!!!!
I guess I'm a RUB also. I'm not rich or highly educated though but I do have a great job. I think I will stick with the hand I got dealt and just continue to dream about being a real biker...as I tour around Europe on my brand new motorcycle. I will continue to dream....as I ride down to Croatia in May and stay in a really nice hotel. I will continue to dream... as I ride to Scotland in August. I'm like that one fella that had a dream, because I also have a dream. I don't ever believe I will achieve my dream though so I'm stuck in this comfortable life that is a prison without walls....or rapists...or dirt bags.

Funny you mention RUB. I only found out what a RUB was about three weeks ago. I have been riding for a few years. I was at a stop light in Cardiff beach. This old school biker pulls alongside me and we look over at each other.
Here was a guy with a gray beard down to his belly, skid lid, with a cigar in his mouth. Big skull and dragon rings on each finger, no gloves, leather vest, torn T-shirt and jeans. His boots were all worn out and had holes in them. His scooter hardly idled. Must have been a late 70s to early 80s Softtail. Had only been washed once… smelt like burnt oil and was the loudest bike I have ever heard.
I was sitting on my new Ultra Classic, which I had spent eight hours detailing and polishing before I pulled my scooter out to ride, my wife and I with our full face helmets, brand new FXRG jackets and gloves. I spent more on chrome than he had spent on his entire scooter.
So I look over, raise my visor and say, “Hey brotha, great day for a ride.” The old biker burnt a hole through my head and said, “Effing RUB.” Put it in gear and ran the red light.
My wife asked me over the intercom, “What’s a RUB.” I told her, I don't know, we will Google it when we get to the restaurant. Boy was I surprised he had insulted us for no reason… the nerve of some people….
