A term jealous types use to describe owners who have a lot of coin and use a bike just to bar hop or for socializing.

I have a boat that I only use in "No shirt" weather.

I guess that makes me a "Wallet Boater".

Some guys just can't stand to see someone else who did what they could have done, but decided against it 20 years ago, and now they are paying the price.

Without an education, you are nothing more than a disposable worker. FACT.

Too cool for school fk'n sucks when you hit 40 and look back.

Snobbery is dumb and useless in any pastime, whether it is fishing, hunting, stamp collecting, bird watching, shooting, working out, etc. Whats important is that people are doing it and bringing awareness to the "Cause". I know of fisherman that turn their nose up at anybody that doesn't wear a tweed jacked with elbow patches while they flyfish using a hook with the barbs smashed down.....or people that hunt deer with anything other than a re-curve bow and arrow. Elite-ism is just plain retarded.

I just bought a bike that already had all the work done to it, I don't know **** about Harley's yet, and my job precludes me from riding it to work so I will be a recreational rider. I guess I am a "Wallet Biker". At least I will be riding. (If the snow ever clears)

Ok, here we go;
I guess if I was as smart as you, I would have the time to put up 12,500 posts on an Internet forum about Harley Davidson motorcycles.

Yes, since you ask, I could have gone to college and chose not to.
My middle class, working parents would have found the money somewhere to send a third child through state university but alas, I chose not to go.
Do I regret that decision, in some ways yes. In other ways, no.
Being a middle class worker bee has made me the person I am now and I have lots of happy memories of who I was, who I am and what I did to get here.
