Lots of people ride motorcycles here. We have rich suburban bikers, BMW riders, hooligans, 1%ers, and retired bikers. Lots of beards and tattoos. Everybody waves but the Harley yuppies. Even the Pagans wave. But not the yuppies. No. Even motorcylists in their cars are cool----except the SUVs and trucks with Harley stickers. Why?
