I dunno about any of that stuff. All I know is that I ride a motorcycle. That's what I do. That's what I've always done. Sure, I've had like minded friends that I've hung out with, and special places to go where I didn't get that "I know yer kind..." speach. But, they're all pretty much gone now. A lot of people I've known are dead, locked up, run out of town, quit riding for various reasons and drifted away. The hangouts have closed up, been torn down or just changed into the sort of place I don't like to be. Yup, all that sh*t's gone, but I still ride because that's what I do, what I've always done, and I can't think of anything else to do that suits me.
