Since I had a dude flip me the bird and call me a "g*ddam* biker"



"Flip the bird? " Let me guess Mike, you're over 30??

Years ago I finished college, "graduate" being a generous term. Two months later (after buying a Bonneville of course) I found myself wearing a uniform/badge/gun/long hair working LE at a busy recreation area. Out of charcter certainly, but I must have fooled the employer. That first summer, I had occasion to be talking to a pulled over car of recreators who apparently had performed some grievous crime against humanity, when a carfull of high school kids rolled past calling me a pig and other terms of endearment. I remember at the time thinking "Now this is an odd turn of events".

Of course I quickly came to my senses, forsook my peace n' love doctrine and promptly shot their radiator out. Later that year I was bike camping at another park area and I noticed how the local patrol cruised by my campsite extra slow giving the "once over" more than once. I remember thinking, "Now this an odd turn of events"

I try to avoid the "judge a book by it's cover" syndrome, trips me up everytime. Now if Eddy were to come up with a suitable washable weekend tatoo...........people would ask "What kind of Harley is that?"
