Just came back from the mall. There was a "poser" there dressed in a red suit, shiny black boots, and fake white beard. Little kids were getting sucked into standing in line and paying for a picture with this POSER. I asked him where his sleigh was and he said he had to leave it outside with the reindeer. BS. I have a sleigh... well not a real sleigh but a sleigh bed because a real sleigh requires more maintenance and cost more, kinda like a Har ... hmmmm.

Well anyway, I checked outside. WTF... no sleigh ...no reindeer. Not even a caribou. Went back in and called out the poser. Sure the kids were screaming but he was obviously pretending he rode a sleigh when he did not. I have a sleigh (bed) and he does not. What a loser. I mean he is, not me.

Wow, 7 pages. This Poser got more attention then anyone else on the ride apparently...

Instead of telling us about the guys that rode and little riding stories that come from a ride like this, you chose to highlight the so called Poser...

If you accomplished what you set out to do then that's all that should matter. (Toys - Kids - Smiles)...

This guy sounds like he has some real issues. Wearing a red suit, shiny black boots and a fake beard so he can take pictures with little kids? Where are these kids parents and why are they allowing this? Next thing you know he'll be trying to get them to sit in his lap

Or they are 45+ and until their current midlife crisis they had never rode before and took Harley Davidson's slick biker image corporate advertising campaign hook line and sinker.

I've been on 2 wheels for 6 years less than I've been on 2 feet. I grew up on mini bikes and motocross and grew into jap standards, supersports and cruisers. I'm born and bred biker and I'll support anyone who gets into the sport at any age, but if you don't love it and don't live it, don't friggin dress up on the weekends and pretend.

Very wrong assumption there skullcrusher. I would bet more likely 9/10 HD riders have owned metrics themselves, and have been riding for years. I grew up on 2 wheels myself and ride more then just weekends. But I don't think I'm better than bikers that ride on weekends only or in fair weather only. Real bikers respect others that ride, don't care what they ride or where they came from.

Damn. I participated in this thread thinking that it would last no more than half a dozen pages, and now I'm adding to page 8.

Sorry mods. I guess the weather is really bad in some parts of the country.

That's the only explanation I have for why this thing keeps dragging on. . . Same old, same old: posers, Harley riders, and real bikers--all in one thread.

Can we just all agree that we impress the hell out of each other and move on?

This is a troll alert, to see who and how many reply by saying if you don't like what I post don't read it . . .

Zzzz.
