Guys, as RK can tell you, this is a major peeve of mine. I see twenty-something guys all of the time on a custom bike they did not personally build, wearing a vest with no sleeves. I ask them why, and they say it's "tradition," or 'old school,' or paying respect. Please. Give me a break.

The next time you go to church, dress up like a Roman centurion, breast plate, gladius, the whole deal. Tell the priest that it's tradion, it's old school, or that you are paying your respects to a bygone era.

See how that plays.


You're a good man Tourist and pretty funny too. Perfect analogy. Wasted advice though. Those that should heed your wisdom won't. Those that agree won't hear it because they are out riding, don't post on forums because they feel they have nothing in common with cyber bikers.

Nobody's bitching,its called a conversation. Now go have a fag.

A cyber ride is as make believe as the cyber biker. So consider the cyber ride complete.

BI63, there is even a 'cyber cycle club.' No kidding. In fact, when they actually sewed up some colors and opined that they might hit the road to Sturgis, we tangled.

Now get this, I simply warned them to be careful when crossing existing club territories. While not such a big deal now, formerly you could get into a world of hurt crossing an outlaw club's turf just showing up with unfamiliar colors. I considered it a friendly warning.

But get this, they called my club's enforcers and "filed a complaint."

Filed a complaint? I didn't even know there was paperwork for that. LOL. Two enforcers showed up to get the skinny, and then we laughed our heads off.

To this day, on their opening home page, they still tell that story and describe me as a "former outlaw." Yikes, me, one guy. A single, solitary, inactive biker scared an entire cyber cycle club to the extent that they filed a complaint. What did they think I was going to do?

Block the road with a lap-top or tweet them to death?

Never let no good deed go unpunished. You saved them an embarassing moment,possibly injury and they cyber flex on you,lol, that is hillarious. Is the club name "Key Board Commando's MC"? LOL

You should have let them proceed unimpeded,bought some pop corn and sat back and watched the show.

Its a different world out there and motorcycling has been affected by it too.I suppose as everything else its a double sided coin, that being good and bad. You eventually have to come to the conclusion Tourist that you nor I nor the many other long time old timer riders don't fit in. A good solution would be to start a forum where the criteria would be you have to be over the age of 40, have 20 years minimum riding experience and currently own a Harley.Age verification easy enough to do n todays technology. That would salt out most of the azzholes.

LOL. No, the name of the cyber club is called The Doof Clenas. They even invented another cyber club as an enemy warring faction called "The Gazintas."

Pretty lame when you're such a light weight that you have to not only create a club, but also an enemy.

I haven't heard from them--or have anyone else mention them--in a few years now. I do feel you're right about one thing, in hindsight I should have done nothing. We can all imagine the scene from "The Wild Hogs" when this cyber club meets real outlaws.

Yikes, talk about poking the bear, they bragged that they were 2%ers because that drank milk. That should have really brought some yuks from a humorless guy wearing a 1% patch that he earned. In truth there are lots of real deal club guys that feel the HOG chapters do the same. It's not really a club if you can buy your way in.

Most anythng cyber spawn is bullsh*t. But unfortunately in todays world BS rolls and rolls and rolls...........come upance is inevitable in many ways.People want to belong in the worst way and don't care if its earned or bought, the easier the better.Even to join an armed forces you have to earn it, its called Basic Training. You pass you're in you flunk your out. Unfortunately there is no longer a draft so I guarantee you most of the posers have never been in the military and which was the begining of there loser/poser legacy.

No argument there. There was an article in today's paper that just having kids view SpongeBob SquarePants for only nine minutes dumbs them down. Can you imagine years of tweets, pokes, e-mail, online movies, FaceBook and no exercise?

I use the computer for work, or like now. I came home to feed the mutts and check e-mail for the job. I use the forum feature to alert me for new entries here. My wife and I are leaving now. We have lives.

The abuse of the WWW has far exceeded its usefullness. Fat ugly chix become beautiful. Skinny puzzy boys become adoness bodybuilders and shat stain motorcycle riders become instant Sonny Bargers,just ask them.

A current comedy show, "To Catch a Predator", is hillarious to see the despicable stupid fuggers who cyber prey on the under age. I mean rabi's,doctors,truckers,teachers etc... the national exposure they receive is justice plus they get jail time too.
