You took the words right out of my mouth

Welcome back Dwight!

Real "bikers" have a portion of respect to share with others!

From the snowy waste of the north of Sweden,we ride as soon as we can see tarmac,and if you don't know what that is,its the black stuff under the ice

Whats a trailor?

Warm beer...yes please

Arsenalfan

Oops, trailer.

Hers one...real bikers cnt spell.

More beer please

Arsenalfan

eat red meat, cuss for no good reason, dont wear leather unless someone gave it to um or it was on sale at walmart. Trailers hel@ yes we live in trailers.

cheers mate,after living in Sweden for ten years I,ve even had too change the spelling ov my name,the silly boggers up here in Norrland can't tell between w and v,it all comes out as vvvvwwwwvvvv,W is'nt in there alphabet but then they do have Å Ä Ö and thats great for an englishman to get to grips with,så min herre,riktig bikers ta inte skit

"…can sleep anywhere."

I guess I'm not a real biker. I have sleep apnea. I need a 110 outlet somewhere.

But this non-real biker rode today and only saw one other bike on the road (low 40s-50 at lunchtime, 32 on the way home this evening).

Otherwise I agree with the list.

Arsenalfan,

Warm beer?

I guess you can take the boy from the land of Lucas refrigerators but you can't take the Blighty out of the boy!

Cheers,(preferably with a ice cold Sam Addams[a good patriot]),
Dwight(smile)

......don't have bugs painted on their jacket.
(saw this ar Wilson Leather in the mall this week)

Hi John,
Go ahead and join the "sleep anywhere" crowd. My CPAP has an optional DC adapter. I can plug it in my cigarette lighter after I'm through smoking for the day.

Real Bikers like free food
" " free gas
free beer

"... sometimes pat the gas tank without thinking"

Oh thank God for that, I thought it was just me ....

Real bikers don't try to prove they are real bikers
Real bikers know that riding in the wind is much better than pissing in it
Real bikers know the shortest distance between to points is the wrong way to go

Very educational this Triumph site.

Can you still make fun of poles? We used to be so happy go lucky. But everyone is hypersensitive these days...

True craftsmanship is using the right wrench to pound in the correct screw.
