Ed Hardy and Von Dutch are used by boring suburban dudes to try and make themselves look non-boring.

That's for your astute analysis... you've really given me something to think about.

Much like "MC"s.

I've never seen so many limp wristed sissies wearing so much leather and patches as the last couple years.

And of course, they took something like a motorcycle club and made it fucking boring. They have "meetings" all the time at a pub down the street. They show up in their cars, throw on their vests and walk in.

I can't wait until riding starts being "not cool" again...

I thought that had been going on forever.

Fortunately, most sportbike riders get over the need to belong to a "club" by their mid to late 20's. Cruiser riders on the other hand......
