Last week, sitting at a picnic table right off the main drag at Sturgis. We had gotten food from a street vendor and I wanted to sit down to eat it. I spotted a huge picnic table being used by two people. I just walked up and asked if we could join them all the time assuming they knew eachother. They didn't. After we got to talking about where were from. Paula stated she was there from Ohio, Meg and I from Austin, there was another assumption that we all rode there. The lone man at the table chimed in that he was from San Jose, CA. He had flown to Rapid City and was riding a friend's bike that was trailered in for him. He went on to spout how important he was, he owned a business and couldn't take "extra" time off.

Paula [age 68] looked at him with a dead-pan look on her face... "Important, huh? Well, you're still a pussy."

He was there playing dress-up. That does not a rider make.
Too funny. Just like that cartoon someone posted about sportbikers vs harley riders.
