Well, rude assholes come driving all forms of vehicles, so I wouldn't
single out people who ride motorcycles as being any greater jerks than
the general population... present company excepted, of course.


The ones wearing colors are always friendly. The ones riding the

My point was the club's name... think about it, Daryl.


I have and I am familiar with it's use.



Methinks it's *gotta* be a joke... but I've never met a biker with any
sense of humor about their colors; they usually take themselves pretty
seriously, which is what makes 'em so funny.


They are talking about the Club itself. Not the individuals.


I can't get my mind around that (a pack representing a lone wolf?) -
and still ironic as hell.


Ah, you finally got it

I disagree and I wouldn't know one motorcycle from another. You
simply cannot say that a person's vehicle reflects his or her
personality. You see rude, aggressive people in tractor-trailer rigs,
cars, skateboards, jet skies, boats, and bicycles... run a Google on
["critical mass" bicycle ride] to see what I mean.

They were certainly a very long way from County Antrim.

then how can you research the subject if you aren't aware of the
equipment? I make my observations on knowing the equipment. You
will note that the Rice Burner People will defend it to the
....... no they won't.

That's fine with me. Kinna like the old hippies who tuned in, turned
on, and tripped out (recall them?) Now they expect you to support
them in their geriatric years while they whine about the rich people.

Fine, 4-F dude... here's another 'F' for you: how does my [F]ender
taste? Shall we "share the road"? Heh heh heh!

I didn't "research" ****. Motorcycles come in two basic forms: noisy
and noisier. They're either parked blocking the entrance door or
they're blocking a handicapped zone. **** 'em.

I think in many cases you can, actually.
