Some of the nicest folks I have I have encountered have been bikers. Now sailors, they are just a bunch of Sperry wearing drunks.Richbirdhunter wrote:
These are good points and I appreciate them. When I see knitters, I see grandmas. This is not a threat. When I'm at the Marina and see sailboats I don't see pirates. This is not a threat. When I see bikers in a group I see a gang. This is a threat. We make decisions every day about safety. Bikers in general are not an inviting group.
To the OP, sounds like you are on the right track. Whether based on what you are riding, your skin color, your age, the fact that you are an out of towner in a small town, or any other factors, being discriminated against is never fun.
