Bike snobs

[Goodburbon]

As a cycle rider I give "the wave" to every rider I pass. Most wave back, just an acknowledgement that we're all part of the same community.

Metric bike owners are generally happy to acknowledge and gesture back. Sport bikes, cruisers, Dual sports, Touring, Sport tourers, etc.

Harley riders, in a much larger percentage, do NOT acknowledge anyone not on a Harley.


It's not upsetting or anything touchy feely like that, just makes me think they're dicks.

I ride an American bike now that even has a Harley engine, but since it doesn't fit the traditional Harley Davidson form factor (Buell Ulysses) I get snubbed just as often as I did when I was on my KLR.


I'm curious, since there are several Harley owners on this board. Do you or do you not gesture (when safe of course) and what do you ride?

[hghclsswhitetrsh]

I rank this rant 2.3/10. Lack of curse words.

[Goodburbon]

WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU THINK THIS IS A RANT?

What the hell is wrong with dipshits who think that everythink you post is a damn rant, it's fucking ridiculous. EAT SHIT...


and then vote in the poll :D




Better?

[Wulf202]

Riding metric bikes exclusively I've found that Harley riders with helmets or windshields mostly wave back.

[Goodburbon]

I hadn't even thought of breaking it down to helmet/no helmet etc.


I took my windshield off today because the wind buffets and shakes my head at speeds above 60. I should've stopped waving.

[yankeefan98121]

I wave to most riders, only when I physically can't is when I don't. Regardless, if they don't wave back, doesn't ruin my day.

I've thought long and hard about getting a cruiser, even a Harley.....at this point I'm just not man enough to rock one. Guess it's sport only for me

[Scanker19]

I like 22/7 more than Pi.

[wctriumph]

Back in the day everyone waved except the 1% outlaw riders. Today they are less that the 1% and really, who gives a shit if the Hardly Dangerous riders don't wave back. Screw 'em if they don't know the brotherhood is deeper than the brand. F'N poseurs!

Keep waving, the riders that live to ride will wave back, don't worry one bit about the others, they really don't understand anyway.

If you need to ask why I ride, no explanation is possible, if you ride, no explanation is needed.

Live it, ignore the rest.

[Whistler]

Fresh out of a bike at the moment but mostly rode a Harley the last 35+ years. I'll wave back usually but not much of one to start it.

[Great-Kazoo]

Didn't wave to anyone, the wife and i would ask each other, "you know them?".

[Fentonite]

Also on a Ulysses. Funny, when I rode a Harley, other Harley riders would wave. Now, most don't, but when they pull up next to me and recognize the American Twin engine or the Buell name, they become friendly. I'll return a wave if it's convenient, but I'm not gonna prioritize the gesture above safety. Here's an excerpt from a Buell publication I like:

I've seen threads about this kind of thing on about every kind of discussion forum I've been on, and I never understood it. Just because me and another person are into the same thing, doesn't mean we have some kind of bond.

[wctriumph]

Like I said:

No explanation is possible.

Like I said:

No explanation is possible.

You can use that quote for anything. I use that same line for my stance on self-defense and the 2nd Amendment, so it's not as if I don't understand. That being said, I always return waves and other forms of polite actions.

Aren't they too busy fixing them to wave back?

[spyder]

Ya, I hate those people who don't wave back.... It makes me feel like a dumb ass when I'm on my mountain bike....

[lead_magnet]

Always waved to all I saw, regardless of make or rider. But I rode sport bikes so I'm not brand myopic.

[Troublco]

I wave when I can. Not that I'm home to ride too much, anyway.

[Bailey Guns]

I ride a Harley (and a BMW). I'm not a bike snob...I like them all, regardless of brand. As a matter of fact, in the little group I ride with, it's about a 50/50 split between metrics and Harleys. I don't like people because of the brand of bike they ride.

Having said that, I usually wave, but rarely initiate it. Sometimes I don't. And frankly, it gets a little annoying cruising down a busy road passing bike after bike and feeling obligated to wave. So, yeah...sometimes I have better things to do than wave back to you.

It seems in my experience that sport-bike riders are the least likely to wave. I'd say about 60% to 70% of the Harley riders I pass wave...helmet/windshield or not. Course, most sport bike riders are usually passing me on curves or in no-passing zones because they're always in such a hurry.

Regardless of the "brotherhood" or whatever, I don't get offended if you don't wave. I don't really give a damn if you get offended if I don't wave at you. If that means I'm not a real biker or I "don't get it", so be it.

Like so many other things, I ride to make me happy...not anyone else.

[Mtn.man]

I don't wave, I don't know you, I ride pretty much alone unless I'm with my boys.

And BG is a BMW snob. LOL

[clublights]

I wave to everyone......

unless I'm busy controlling the bike of course.
I'd say ( as a sportbike rider) 50% of sporty's wave back .. 30% of Harleys/ cruisers, and 100% of Goldwings.

You should never get mad about a missed wave back ESP if they are busy riding the bike ,.

It's not upsetting or anything touchy feely like that, just makes me think they're dicks. Why yes, I am, thank you for noticing and QUIT waving, you look like an idiot. Seriously, it has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with what you or anyone else rides. I ride what I like, and I'm guessing most everyone else does the same. Good for them, seriously. It doesn't matter to me what or if they ride, the fact that two complete strangers rides DOES not make them members of somekind of elite fraternity..... get over it.


As a cycle rider I give "the wave" to every rider I pass. Most wave back, just an acknowledgement that we're all part of the same community. GET THIS IDEA OUT OF YOUR HEAD RIGHT NOW!!!! We, as in you and I, ARE NOT BROTHERS!!!!! The term "brother" is AN EARNED STATEMENT and YOU have NOT earned it! A brother is someone I'll regard with highest respects as extended family. In tough times, he will have my back, and I will have his. "I am my brother's keeper". The only thing you've made it clear you and I have in common, is that we each ride motorcycles...... YEAH!!! Do you want a cookie or something?


I ride an American bike now that even has a Harley engine, but since it doesn't fit the traditional Harley Davidson form factor (Buell Ulysses) I get snubbed just as often as I did when I was on my KLR. Again, seriously.... I personally don't give one ounce of a damn what/if you ride. I'm not snubbing you at all by not waving, I simply don't care who you are, why you ride, what you ride, or how your day is going...... "Why?" you might ask.......... Now you've asked the right question:

You've failed to make a formal introduction to myself or my brothers personally. So you can pass by and wave every day until your hand falls off and you'll never get one in return. Sure, maybe we're dicks, and that's a term I wear quite proudly actually.... someone has to be one or most of the rest of the population continues on with stupidity because they don't realize they're doing so. But personally I think it boils down to the simple fact that you are not known..... Why should we wave at you? You could be some happy little pedofile riding down the road looking for your next local elementary school to stake out. You might be a total moron willing to vote for Obama. YOU very well MIGHT be someone I wouldn't like if we met formally, and THAT good sir.... is why you DON'T DESERVE MY RETURN WAVE.

Runs and rallys..... been there done that, have gotten completely turned off to the idea because I'm just not a people person and I tend to point out stupidity at a moments notice with NO regard about whose feelings get hurt. Get over it, get over yourself, and lighten up. You're just as small as the rest of us in this world.... you want a "community"? There it is... the human race.... read it and weep or celebrate it like some of the rest of us. The only ones going to care about how butt-hurt you are because people don't wave are other dillweeds who somehow think that riding a bike gives them some sort of ENTITLEMENT! What are you, two-wheeled OWS asshats?... YOU DIDN'T GET A WAVE, YOU WANT YOUR FREE WAVE!!!!! F/U.

You want respect? EARN IT

You want a wave? EARN IT

You have a bike? Then shut, up and enjoy the ride Sally. There's an entire beautiful planet out there to see and your silly ass is worried about what other riders think of you, so you go into a public online forum and make a post about it...... FUGG'EM!!!!! Ride on, and quit your bitching....

If someone doesn't wave at first, you should try waving your 1911 at them to see if they share your other favorite hobby.

Hey, back when I could still ride, I always waved at the non-Harley riders....

I certainly condone the Jeep wave and have no issues with it I was merely mocking the idea of this thread. Everyone has different opinions regarding if they want to wave or not. If you're into waving, then wave. If you're not, then don't wave. If you ride your Lazy Boy on wheels (Harley) and think you are tough shit down at the local bar and are too cool to wave then so be it.

Well I think this response proves that they're not waving because they are dicks. It just floors me that a grown human being would actually think like that. Oh and Badger...whether you like it or not you ARE a part of the motorcycle community. Just like you're a part of the CO AR-15 community. Just like you're a part of the Bailey, CO community. Would it kill you to at least be cordial to someone who is in the same community as you? Man...you and Jim need to get together and talk about how much you hate your fellow man, how stupid people are who know less than you and how macho you guys are for not forming any type of personable traits in your personality.

OT though...I've even been behind a Harley on the road and a Harley will be coming the other way and wave at the first guy and then intentionally not wave at me. Now I know it's not all Harley riders, just like I know that not all non-Harley riders are nice people either. But it just seems like the majority of Harley riders want nothing to do with non-Harley riders. Pretty elitist of them, but to each his own.

I guess some people just are dicks at heart...

[Irving]

Kanekutter, it starts with just waving, then all of the sudden it is, "I was broken down on the side of the road on my Heritage Softtail when some guy driving an F-150 Harley edition drove by and didn't even stop to load my bike and take me home for free! I thought we were all a community?!"

[rondog]

I've always ridden Harleys, but honestly, I'd always wave at other riders or return their wave. I never did the "snob" thing, but I would always let the conditions determine whether I'd wave or not. Sometimes a quick wave is easy, but other times I didn't see theirs in time, or I was changing lanes, or there was heavy traffic, or in a sharp turn, etc.

It's not always safe or easy to give a wave, and those people wouldn't get a return wave. Nothing about being a dick, it was all about what I was doing at that instant and how important my attention and concentration was at that moment. I'll always be polite to other riders, but I'll never compromise my own safety to do so. That's what it boils down to, IMO, and people who get offended at being "snubbed" should consider that it may not have actually been a snub. Although it quite often is, sad to say.

I have to admit though, that I do tend to giggle when I see some guy on one of those Japanese Harley-clone bikes with tall apehangers, leathers, cutoffs and patches, trying his damnedest to look like a real bad-ass 1%'er and acting all tough-guy I'ma kick-yo-ass bad mo-fo. I gave up all that "biker regalia" shit 30 years ago. Hell, I won't even wear Harley t-shirts anymore. I have no need to try and impress any-damn-body. When I rode, it was for me and my comfort and my pleasure, not to go out profiling or chest-thumping. But those guys are good entertainment.

Sadly, I don't know if I'll ever ride again. After the lumbar surgeries I've had, I'm just very leery of the risk. If I hit a hard bump or pothole in a damn car, it brings tears to my eyes from the pain. Just thinking of shocks to the spine while on a bike scares the shit out of me. Maybe after a year or two it'll heal up enough to not be a problem, but right now, NFW.

That's quite the jump...but I get what you're saying. I just don't understand the attitude of "don't know you, don't wanna know you, probably wouldn't like you if I did" that guys like Badger have. It's just a very elitist and exclusionary way of thinking and just bothers me to no end.

[Irving]

Can't you just ride standing up the whole time and let your knees take the blow Ron?

I posted that example because I have seen it before. It was on a 2nd generation Integra forum. Some guy was complaining because while he was broken down on the side of the road, he saw another 2nd generation Integra drive by and was all butt-hurt that the other guy didn't pull over to help him. I told him to get real.

All great mc's but still not the wave at ya rider. I'm too busy watching mirrors, ahead and all over seeing how anything on 2 wheels has an invisibility cloak to 99% of cages.

[Colorado Osprey]

Wow. Some very rude drivers, bike or no.

Out here the country everyone waves at everybody, whether you know them or not.
Not waving back is considered very rude. So it driving past someone who is broken down.

Out here where we rely on others and you neighbor, not waving or helping a broken down motorist is a great way to end up on everybody's "dick" list.

For those that have lived in the city their whole life and don't get this just realize you probably won't get help on the side of the road as you wait and wonder why nobody stops to help you.

As far as Harley rider's waving... aren't they usually just broken down and asking for help? Sorry, not a HD fan... more the opposite.

Badger

+1

Even if I know them I probably won't wave because I'm not looking at other riders or the bike their on, I'm on my ride enjoying myself, I didn't head out for a wave and acknowledgment. Now if we met in a bar or a local stop with a bunch of bikes, I would say "Hi" and not ask what you rode first, I don't care. Its like riding with someone you don't know, I would NOT ride next to them until we've ridden together for a while. I don't know how they ride and react so I would not expect them to know what I would do either, so I won't ride next to them and don't care if they are offended. "Brother" is another thing that bugs the shit out of me, especially with other Harley riders. We have not fought side by side in a bar or in the service, you have not bailed me out or helped in a personal situation that I or he was in to deep to get out alone. That is reserved for those people, not every asshole on a Harley.

So no, I don't wave, I do ride Harleys, and I am not a dick and those that think so are narrow minded and only remember some guy on a Harley didn't wave back, oh my, what a dick!

By the way, I voted I like pie.

If you'd bother to have fully read and understood the poll options you MIGHT have a slight idea of why the hell I posted the way I did.

Option 1: I ride a Harley and I wave.
Option 2: I ride a Harley and you don't, bugger off!
Options 3-6 are irrelevant.

Do you not see how the OP already has it in his pea brain that if you ride a Harley and you don't wave its because the other rider is NOT on a Harley? And thus they are somekind of dicks because of it... Did I REALLY have to spell that out for you?

It has not one god damned thing to do with being cordial. People wave all the time, if I don't know them, I typically figure they thought I was someone else, a simple case of mistaken identity, and just go about my business. There's no elitist mindset to it at all. While I've made it very clear I'm not exactly a people person, I can assure you there are quite a few people in this very forum whom I've met and I'd wager they'd likely agree I can be a very civil, if not a pleasant person. But most if not all who take the time to know me will also tell you I maintain an EXTREMELY low tolerance for bullshit.

As far as helping, I've stopped for many riders on the side of the road but I'll say right now that sometimes such an act can be a double edge sword. Many times you stop and they're fine, just stretching legs, waiting for others to meet up, bike is too hot, or maybe they genuinely need a little assistance and you can be helpful. But I've stopped before and ended up sitting in cuffs on the back of a state cruiser while my info was being checked out. My appearance was apparently cause for alarm. When you hear "We don't want any trouble!" before you can even ask the question of whether or not they need help, it kind of makes you stop and go "huh?". My stopping freaked this guy's ol lady out and she immediately dialed 911. Long hair, tattoos, and certain patches apparently scare the hell out of some people. Sometimes minding one's own is just a better way to help have an enjoyable day.

But I've stopped before and ended up sitting in cuffs on the back of a state cruiser while my info was being checked out. My appearance was apparently cause for alarm. When you hear "We don't want any trouble!" before you can even ask the question of whether or not they need help, it kind of makes you stop and go "huh?". My stopping freaked this guy's ol lady out and she immediately dialed 911. Long hair, tattoos, and certain patches apparently scare the hell out of some people. Sometimes minding one's own is just a better way to help have an enjoyable day.


Badger

I know you, you're my cousin. Same family, long on hello, short on bs.Tattoo's, long beard, no patches [lifetime far, far away]. They put you in cuffs? wow i got guns drawn, gently placed in the prone position, then tossed in the car and carted off.

Hey i just missed someone that waved......[ROFL1]

[palepainter]

I have allways ridden a harley. 6 in the last 20 years.

I never wave at anyone. I dont know you, we are not friends. Just because you have a loan on a bike, doesnt mean we are brothers. I dont wave at every dumbass in a car. Whats the difference?

Actually, I occasionally wave. Out here if you are alone and I will probably wave. I will wave at people local to me. In my truck, or on my bike. Once I get to the city, no more for sure.

I really hate it when you go to Sturgis, and dumbasses want to wave. Damn, there are 8 quadrillion bikes, do we need to get a rotator cuff injury by waving at a damn rally?

But, its not because I ride a harley, that I dont wave. Its because I am an antisocial A-hole.

This....Exactly my sentiments. No time to wave when you are dodging idiots on the road.....

[kanekutter05]

Bottom line...you don't wave, you're being rude. End of story. If you're fine with that then that's your problem. But it's rude, plain and simple.

[Bailey Guns]

Bottom line...you don't wave, you're being rude. End of story. If you're fine with that then that's your problem. But it's rude, plain and simple.

OK...that's just bullshit. If I happen to be paying attention to some dumbass cage driver that's trying his damnedest to kill me and don't feel like jeopardizing my already compromised safety to wave to you, it's not being rude. It's being a smart rider.

Or maybe I've chosen not to wave because, big surprise, there's other things out there in the world to pay attention to besides you and your waving little hand. Maybe I didn't see you. Maybe I'm looking at the instruments on the bike. Maybe I'm watching the deer on the side of the road that you didn't see because you're too busy waving to all your "brothers".

If your little butt hurts because of that then you need to reassess your priorities while riding.

End of story. Plain and simple.

I guess since I drive a pickup I have to start waving at every pickup I pass..... this thread makes me want to flip off everone who waves at me while i'm on my bike, just because I now know it chaps their ass when I dont wave back.

[KestrelBike]

I rode sport bikes (had 2 stolen, the other I sold to start saving $$$ and it got stolen from the buyer 3 days later lol, they found it in mexico the next week amazingly) and in Cali, 98% of everyone waved back, including the harley riders. When someone didn't wave back, they were usually a harley rider, fat, old, with long grey hair and a "F you, sportbike rider" attitude. They'd stare at you and not wave. Real tough!

[10mm-man]

Waving, after a while get's to be a pain in the ASS! To many bikers, got tired of it after a bit... Don't feel snubed Harley guys don't always wave to Harley guys...

Well you can justify it however the hell you want, it's goddamn rude. If you're not a good enough rider to wave safely then I suggest riding on less populated roads. I ride safely and I wave...why can't you?

Oh that's right, because you don't care about being rude to other riders. I guess you'll just keep on thinking I'm stupid for waving at you an I'm gonna keep on thinking you're a rude asshole for not waving.

[Great-Kazoo]

Lot of "sensitive" members. Don't wave, your just plain rude and a meany. We should know what kind of vehicle you drive, this way we can wave at everyone. If not would we be rude? Really, what age demographic are you in?
Look either you do or don't wave, flip off or just ignore another rider. I see one on the side of the road i slow down, or pull over if they need assistance. I've never been bent out of shape because someone didn't wave to me. 38 years in the saddle and i don't sweat the light shit.
YMMV

"but, but, you have to wave at me! I went out and bought a bike, so I could try and fit in, I used to get beat up in school, the AV club would take my lunch money, I spent lots of money on all this gear, I have a huge payment, the dealer said I would have lots of new bike riding friends"

unbelievable. grow up you pussies. if someone doesnt wave at you, why the hell would you really care? Unless she was hot and stacked. Then you can be bummed out. But, of course her real biker boyfriend would probably snap you like a twig.

so, dont sweat it, if people dont wave. go home to your mom to get your ego boost. tell her how you won the 4 th grade miss congeniality award.


as far as helping other bikers, i help anyone, biker or not. I have stopped on i25 and drove 80 miles out of my way to take a guys bike home in my truck, when he broke down. I have driven way out of my way with slurpee cups filled with gas in my lap, to help bikers who were out of gas. I just dont like to wave.

So, in your mind, there is absolutely no justification not to wave at someone while riding? That's really quite astounding.

Furthermore, you apparently didn't read the entire thread. Or maybe you can't comprehend what others are saying. Like this:


Having said that, I usually wave, but rarely initiate it.

If you can't understand that someone might not wave for a variety of reasons you're not a safe rider. Or a smart rider. Or maybe you're just too close-minded to even attempt to see the other side of an argument.

Whatever...

Maybe this will make your mangina feel a little better:

So while we are having an all out bitch-fest here, I was actually thinking the other day, how if I did ever decide to get a bike, that I would most likely NEVER go on a group ride. I feel like when people get together in big groups, they act like douche balls and attract the wrong kind of attention. Used to see it all the time in car clubs.

[kanekutter05]

You know...you old people better be careful how you treat us youngins. You keep acting like you do **COUGH** Jim, badger, hbar, bailey**COUGH** and enough of us young people will get fed up with your shit. Then we'll put you all in a home and take all of your guns away. And good luck stopping us because we're bigger, stronger, faster, smarter and (because we all grew up playing those goddamn video boxes you all loathe so much) better shots than you.

Holy crap. This thread just got super sensitive. Some people just need to WALK IT OFF.

And Jim... stop bullying people gosh darnit!!! You are hurting my little feelers.[Beer]

[Goodburbon]

Jeebus. Butt hurt much?

I believe I mentioned that if it could be done safely. That pretty much means, open road no traffic, not in a corner, etc. I probably won't wave in town because I'm busy watching for someone to try to turn into me or in front of me.

I took a quick little 100 mile ride today. Only passed a dozen or so bikes, twisty road, mostly harleys, no waving going on except for chicks on the back seat. and the one guy on a metric.

The poll selection about Harleys was tongue in cheek btw, but I guess some people have it in their pea brains that I don't like Harley riders.

Not that anyone gives a crap, but I cut my street teeth on a Harley. I was just trying to find out if I should wave or not if I ever put it back together, and I guess I now know the answer. :D

[GilpinGuy]

Frankly, I don't give a crap if you wave or not. But do it safely if you do.

A few weeks ago my wife and I were driving behind a few bikes. Another bike comes in the other lane and they do the cool wave thing, but the guy in the other lane swerves right toward us, crossing the double yellow. Had to swerve to not crater the asshole. Not worth it if you can't steer one handed.

[Fentonite]

....If you're not a good enough rider to wave safely then I suggest riding on less populated roads. I ride safely and I wave...why can't you?

This simplistic statement reeks of immaturity, inexperience and naïveté. It would be kinda cute, if it wasn't moronically sad.

i wasnt going to comment. But, he did mention me.

First, I am only 40. Second I spent 8 years in the Marine Corps. There are quite a few of us here who have spent time in some pretty Elite units. I live and work on a farm/ranch. I work physically hard everyday. So, I am pretty strong. I can take a lickin and keep on tickin. I spend most of my extra money on guns, ammo and shooting. So, I doubt your video game playing (faux shooting) is going to pay off as well as my actual shooting. I have a 168 iq. I have allways placed at the top of all of my schooling and military testing. AND YOU RIDE A HARLEY

I think you found the wrong forum. We hope you leave and dont come back. Short tempers, name calling and whiners have no place here.


Sure get involved, damn farmers. Luckily i'm too old and weak so i'll back down from bullying the youngsters.

Wishing someone wrecks because they don't agree with you, not to mention your implying older folks should have their guns taken away confirms (to me) you are the typical anti gunner who mask their true identity.

Nice truck. I'll wave at ya. I wave all the time. I like to wave. Waving is fun. I'd rather ride or shoot than wave. Maybe I will ride, shoot and wave. Shouldn't be too hard, I used to ride a HD that I could work the clutch, throttle, shift, brake and operate the turn signal all at the same time and still manage a wave if needed.

But, since you're staying, why not plan to make a trip up to Bailey and show me some of those mad shooting skills you possess? I'll invite a few other select guys from the forum. You can show us old guys how it's done.

We can stand around and wave at each other and then do some serious shooting. I'm never too old to learn from an expert.

damn. I never knew I was part of so many communities. I came across a couple guys, one was wearing Levi's (like me), and the other was wearing Soloman hiking boots like mine. Since I learned here that I'm part a of each of their communities, I knew I had to wave at both, but which takes precedence? Shit, then a guy with a beard walked by, and then there were several people walking dogs. I didn't have enough hands for all the waving. I'm sure I hurt everybody's feelings, since I'm such an integral part of all these communities, sharing a deep, brotherly bond with all of them.

Gimme a break. If you seriously, automatically include yourself in a "community/brotherhood" with folks just because you own or do the same thing, you don't understand the value or meaning of true brotherhood, and will be sorely disappointed one day. As for me, I'll stick with my fellow Marines for my brotherhood.

And remember son, I've been your age; you ain't never been mine.

[Bailey Guns]

Come on, Fentonite. Don't you know "we're all in this together"?

Geez...

[Chad4000]

gotta throw my two cents in...

two short stories. I have been riding (up till about 2 years ago) for about 10 years. mainly sporties. it's pretty well known that harley guys dont wave. i still always waved and usually caught an awkward wave back. just a little weird.... motorcycling is a brotherhood. we need to be looking out for eachother.

secondly, my folks live in unincorporated parker. Ponderosa hills. as soon as the pavement ends, I wave at EVERY passing car. 90% wave back. the other ten percent either drive a prius or didnt see me. I mean that literally, there is some guy who owns a prius back there that I have waved at EVERY time I see him. never a wave back..

liken it to an old school way of doing business. if it was a small town, you didnt have to KNOW everybody to wave. that's the way parker was when I got here. I liked it. I continue to do that when I get a little further out of downtown parker. as our communities grow, I like to think that there are still groups of people that can relate. if I were to see a "co-ar15" sticker on a truck, I would wave, or say hi or something. even though i wont know who it is....

that guy that doesnt wave.... i dont know him.. doesnt make him not a dick..

ahh.. buddy.. calm down. i wont get upset if you dont wave at me ;)

[Chad4000]

do I have to know somebody to give them a head nod in the grocery store as I walk by? nope.. do I? yup. do I say excuse me if I walk in front of somebody? yup...

Look, we can change it up.. motorcycling doesnt have to be a brotherhood anymore. we'll all just do our own thing.... good luck out there...

[Chad4000]

I will share another short story. (Im full of em today lol)

My father was an airline pilot, and he had this co-pilot that he flew with for awhile that was just awesome. Couldnt say enough good about him. When my dad retired, this co-pilot came out to my folks house for the retirement party... Well he shows up, and none of us besides my dad had met him. This huge (ripped) black guy, on a harley, wearing an American flag leather vest...

It was awesome. I had just gotten my first bike, a little honda F2 and I was all proud. Well I was half kidding and didnt realize what a no-no it was, but I asked to ride his bike.

He goes,, "sure.. but if you wreck I'll kill you".

well I was kidding, so I was like, "no no man.. I dont really want to bla bla etc."

he goes "you asked... now get on the bike..." lol...

I was terrified, rode it around the block super slow and brought it back unscratched. I was like, "well if you want to ride mine, you can"

"no thanks"....

LOL.. hahaaha

Anyway, he taught me some stuff about motorcycling that day. it was him who first told me to respect other riders, and to consider it a brotherhood.

[kanekutter05]

And remember son, I've been your age; you ain't never been mine.

Oh man, I had no idea my dad was on here. I hope you're proud[ROFL2]

[kanekutter05]

As for me, I'll stick with my fellow Marines for my brotherhood.

Actually you may have shed some light on this subject for me...

Serious question for Jim, Hbar, Bailey and Badger: Are you all former military? Let me be more specific...are you all former Army or Marines?

[Chad4000]

Gimme a break. If you seriously, automatically include yourself in a "community/brotherhood" with folks just because you own or do the same thing, you don't understand the value or meaning of true brotherhood, and will be sorely disappointed one day. .


I'll say what I think that co-pilot friend of my dads would say, had I taken this attitude with him that day.....

"sounds like you don't understand the true value or meaning of riding"

[Eggysrun]

A wave or nod.

[hghclsswhitetrsh]

Kane, what kind of bike do you ride?

[ghettodub]

Sometimes when I'm in my truck, I like to wave to other F350 drivers. I usually get a weird look.

can we stop pretending that what it takes to ride long term is the same as driving a car?

what it takes, however you verbalize it, is something that only us riders, can relate to or understand with eachother. it bonds us...

[hghclsswhitetrsh]

California howdy.

I've got a 2003 Honda VTX 1800

[Chad4000]

I do have another rider friend of mine who hates the wave, so he normally throws his fist into the air... like jersey shore style lol..

he says he has other riders do it back to him all the time lol...

[hollohas]

I ride a Harley. I will typically wave back at anyone who waves at me no matter what they are riding however I don't initiate because I think it's dumb. I will not return the wave to anyone when it doesn't make sense...like when I am in the middle of a hard turn rolling down 126 near Pine for example. Who the F thinks waving is more important than controlling the bike through the turn and over the gravel on the road? Apparently lots of people do. I ride to get to where I am going (and have fun doing it) not to socialize by waving at everyone else.

Someone here said you are part of the riding community if you like it or not...like being part of the Bailey "community" or CO AR15. Riding might be a "community" but CO AR15 is a club. I will wave at someone who is sporting our club's colors in the form of a sticker on their car but I am not going to wave at everyone who lives in the Littleton community just because I do...and that goes for the riding "community" too.

[Chad4000]

I think riding has become pretty neutered. it's certainly (and obviously) not what it used to be, but I kinda liked to think that it was still in there somewhere.

[Bailey Guns]

Doesn't bother me if you leave or stay. I'm just sentimental in that I don't really care what you do.

But, since you're staying, why not plan to make a trip up to Bailey and show me some of those mad shooting skills you possess? I'll invite a few other select guys from the forum. You can show us old guys how it's done.

We can stand around and wave at each other and then do some serious shooting. I'm never too old to learn from an expert.

Huh... Nothing but crickets after the invite. So much for "brotherhood".

Can't say I've really known many AF guys well...but all of the Navy guys I've ever met are class acts. I just thought that if all of those guys were Army or Marines then I could attribute it to those branches.

[Bailey Guns]

AF. Active from 79-89, Guard/Reserve 95-99.

AWACS crew, Weather Forecaster Special Operations Branch AFGWC, Combat Arms, Security Forces.

And good luck stopping us because we're bigger, stronger, faster, smarter and (because we all grew up playing those goddamn video boxes you all loathe so much) better shots than you.

I am under 30, enjoy video games AND can't believe you actually wrote this ^ Gamers don't automatically = good shots dude. And younger doesn't mean smarter, stronger and bigger...what a silly generalization.


See that's the whole outlaw biker mentality. I just don't get it because it's so silly.

It's astounding that you think all bikers should wave no matter what the situation.

I am as far from the outlaw biker mentality as one can be. I have never been in trouble with the law, I don't wear leather, don't care what you ride, have NEVER stopped at a "biker" bar or any other bar while riding (I like to be stone cold sober while I ride) and don't think I am part of some biker club that I have to wave at every other biker.

You may think riding is part of your image but it is not part of mine. I ride to so I can have a fun way to get from point A to point B...not so people notice me. Two people on bikes crossing paths does not make them a family. The simple fact that two people ride is not anything close to being a brotherhood. I know that even though I am not a vet.

[Great-Kazoo]

See that's the whole outlaw biker mentality. I just don't get it because it's so silly.


Let me shed a little light on your small feeble mind. Outlaw biker mentality?? Guys like you.....Run that mouth in private, yet shit if you were in the same room, with a serious patch holder. .
Why because you're hiding behind a keyboard and not stepping up to the plate. Bad mouthing ANYONE that does not agree with you be it this thread or others. Bullying you is not what's happening, You are just some punk kid who's mouth is writing checks your body cannot cash.
Whining, crying complaining just because.
You set a piss poor example of what ever it is you are trying to be.
Want my gun. want to"Kick my ASS" teach this old guy a lesson.

Did I strike a chord with the pre-WW2 service quip Jim? By the way I never SAID I wanted to kick your ass. I never said I wanted to kick anyone's ass actually. I just told Badger that he could fact check what my profile says if we ever crossed paths [Coffee]

And by the way...I'm not too worried about some fat biker with a patch. Tough guy bravado like that always makes me laugh.

[Chad4000]

Cant speak for Kane, I'm more of an "accuracy by volume" guy, but I would certainly watch this.. lol ..

why does it have to be in Bailey though Baileyguns? the shuttle wont take you out of the city?



LOL im just kidding!!! lol.. totally just kidding..[Beer]

[Bailey Guns]

I just so happen to have access to a small, private range. I've got nice steel targets and other stuff pre-positioned. We can also shoot how we want (as long as it's done safely) and not be restricted by formal range rules...ie: no shooting from a holster, concealment, etc...

But I'm game somewhere else, too.

[hollohas]

After an invite and a reinvite to shoot you could at least acknowledge the effort with a "Fuck you. I ain't gonna shoot with you."

And what in the hell do you think you're doing. I train MMA yet I have no desire to get in the cage. I train with and by some of what I consider and are proven to be top fighters and submission grapplers in the state, competed in worlds, and learned the craft from Helios himself. What is your name, where do you train and when/who have you fought in the cage? I wanna do a little fact checking. I'm not challenging you to fight im challenging you to shut the fvck up, you're embarrassing us that train MMA. We are supposed to be humble, you come across like a 13 year old bully in the 4th grade. I guarandamntee you if you were in a bar with my patched uncle you wouldn't say a fvckng word, if you did you'd more than likely... Well you know the rest.

So you're talking about Jiu-Jistu then right? You must mean HELIO Gracie, and I'm also sure you mean you learn Jiu-Jitsu in a Gracie BJJ system. I also haven't fought yet because I don't have the time to train to the level I want to in order to fight. But you're right, and I must apologize. I may have made it seem like my MMA training is what I'm resting my confidence on. That is incorrect.

And my statement still stands. I'm not worried about some biker. I can handle myself just fine.

You keep acting like you do **COUGH** Jim, badger, hbar, bailey**COUGH** and enough of us young people will get fed up with your shit. Then we'll put you all in a home and take all of your guns away. And good luck stopping us because we're bigger, stronger, faster, smarter and (because we all grew up playing those goddamn video boxes you all loathe so much) better shots than you.

I mean, at least I laughed and took it like that.. kinda like the idea of putting you all in homes.. not sure you should take that seriously..

In response, we've got pics of bikes (with claims of riding them... i can only assume while typing these posts?)

There are plenty of pictures of rifles and targets (Ipad at the range, right?)

So, how about that screwin bit? I wanna see some pictures of cored out cantaloupes and "pocket pals"

Oh now we're posting pics... aw, this makes me sad- since almost 1 month before I shipped for basic (just 4 days before I had figured out bike storage) my baby got stolen. Well, here are the pics:
The day I took her home:

Not a sport bike guy but that's a mighty fine looking bike there!

Yeah, but I lost the "after" pics... stolen from my apartment parking lot in Arvada, recovered in very sad shape way down SE of Parker... I hope the guy that wrecked it got injured worse than the bike. Only good thing that day, hottest damn chick-cop I've ever seen. I should have given her my number!

Did you give her the whole "I think I need to be frisked" routine? [ROFL1]

[ROFL1]
No, I didn't think of that one! I was 21 at the time, of course when she called me telling me that they recovered my bike and that I needed to bring a pickup I wasn't really thinking about getting laid, I was more thinking "Shit! It's probably all busted up!"

... Because its more funny if i explain it....

The assertion was MEANT to suggest that posting pics of bikes and rifles versifies that you ride or shoot to the same extent that showing your porn collection proves you get laid.

Un plug...

[HiFive] Jim, that is AWESOME! I personally don't understand the fruit molestation accusations, I guess our current generation doesn't own tube socks? [LOL]
I don't usually have time to take pictures of my humping or shooting... mainly because I'm too busy humping or shooting (that and this new gal I'm seeing probably wouldn't be too happy with me taking pictures of her naked [Coffee])

Thanks, he asked. I stepped up to the plate, no bragging tough guy talk, just pictures. I have more if it's really in doubt.

BTW: If you let some air out she will not look as fat when you take pictures.
Sorry been a long time since i gave you grief. WAIT isn't that what it's all about, Give each other shit, laugh and move on??? [Wave]

[ROFL1] Man I should have seen that one coming! Crap! Why can't I hear jokes about that without thinking of that Cletus T. Judd song?
"She's so squeezable
Please-able
Unbreakable
She's inflatable
She's an arm full of sex appeal
Can't wait till I get her home" [ROFL1]

[Bailey Guns]

20 effin pages of this crap?

Seriously?

Thus demonstrating that none of you actually Ride, or Shoot, or, screw, or hell, anything but argue on forum threads.

Fail. Serious, epic, fail.

Not me...I don't do none of that stuff. I just sit around wishing I was you because you're so cool.
