      right, as I recall you call out anyone for wearing protective gear for that specific hobby. They should all be in scuba suits and flippers just to be different.

        Oddly enough the mountain bike guys don't seem to dress up in their favorite costume but they do have $3k bikes.

        The guys with dirt bikes are even worse. I've never seen a place before that riding a dirt bike required having the full fledge moto cross outfit down to the matching boots and helmets of their fav team.. it's as bad as Nascar rednecks wearing Tide jackets..
        What do you wear? Old Navy?

          Wearing leather chaps, half helmets if one at all and half vests isn't wearing protective gear. It's trying to pretend you are a tough biker while looking like a gay Porn star..

          Protective gear is full leathers or a slide suit with a full face helmet, but of course wearing that doesn't look cool am I right?

          Keep pretending though..

              a big touring bike yes, but not a harley for sure

                  that's a fantastic motorcycle, no question. that doesn't mean a harley touring bike isn't also fantastic.

                  it all depends on how you want to go.

                    Very nice piece of engineering!

                    Now back to the initial topic:
                    I used to ride a bike in France (a Japanese one). We had a lot of fun riding it with my wife and believe me, it's the only practical way to drive around Paris (you can ride between lanes there).
                    Then we had kids and I kept riding to the office and back but my wife would no longer ride with me.
                    Finally, I moved to Canada and the fuckin SAAQ (Quebec driving licences and vehicle registrations) doesn't recognize foreign bike driving licences, you can't ride between lanes and you are fucked 50% of the year so I gave up on it.

                      why are you so fixated on homosexuals? I wear a half helmet because I feel safer having peripherals, as I'm used to having them from years of cycling. I don't wear vests because I don't think they protect ME enough, other riders feel different but I never thought to call them gay because of it. I don't wear all that other shit because I don't believe I MYSELF need to.

                      You are pretty judgemental for a hippy driving a volkswagon aren't you?

                        Why are you so fixated on what I think? Does the truth hurt?

                              Stop to think about every Congressional scandal involving a Congressman and a gay guy. The Congressman has always been the most vocal anti-gay voice out there.

                              Now, think about cockett. He is really gay, but because he is so fucking stupid I don't call him out on it because I don't want people to associate his stupidity with the GLBT movement.

                                I guess the longest trip I made was from Phoenix down to San Diego, picked up a passenger, and down into Mexico for a weekend.

                                I made trips from Phoenix to Vegas or LA on a regular basis....
