all this falderal all about what makes a "real" biker? Most is just so much BS. Stereotypes are a dime a dozen and they entail everything from what bike is "real" to what attire is being worn..or a specific lack of certain stereotypical attire as in chaps, boots, helmets, lack of helmets etc.
A biker is anyone who rides, has ridden recently, who rides only on weekends, who rides Triumphs, Harleys, Hondas, Yamahas, Suzukis, Nortons, Moto-guzzis, Beemers, Italian, German, Merican, British, Japanese et al.
If you lIKE to ride, have ridden in the past and dream of it again,,,,,if you have 1000 miles or a 100K on the odometer...than you qualify.
If you ride to work in street shoes twice a week cause its the only oppurtunity you have......you are still a biker as long as you savor the experience.
Being a biker really is an equal oppurtunity endeavor.
to all those who really think they must attach some "qualifications" ......well as the Brits would say...
"bugger off"
