And they wonder why I dis 'em.

The illusion of power. So that's why they do it....

This discussion continues to remind me of "in-house" arguments that visit themselves on any group, whether churches (inter-denominational differences), political groups (far-left vs. left vs. moderate; far right vs. right vs. moderate) or even "beneficial" organizations like The Scouts, PTA, or the local baseball/softball leagues.

You will always find those with large egos, lack of understanding or singular narrow-mindedness. We could choose to not participate with them....though I realize there is no fun in that. Or, maybe accept them where they are and try to understand their ignorance and desire to remian in that state.

Remember, the "stuntaz" aren't giving we who ride fully faired bikes much of a good reputation, either. And some of us earn our own bad rap! While I realize its hard to be a "goodwill ambassador" to those who also ride 2-wheeled machines, we could try.

Now, let's talk about those who ride Harley-BMWs or Yama-Zukis or Honda-Sakis or Duca-Guzzis (leaving out the KTM riders who are snobs, anyway) and don't wave!

Ya, but I keep coming back here anyway.
