No, I do 10-20 over the limit in the left lane. I just see nothing but filth in the biker subculture. Sorry, but take an honest look at it. Meth production is controlled by bikers in the US. What percentage of bikers are convicted felons? %50, %60, %90? I hold them in the same light as I hold all felons, South American drug gangs, and smugglers. We don't need them.

For your info, pal, most of the Harley "sub culture" you speak of is Walter Mitty types, dentists on Harleys. Do you have any idea how expensive those things are? I think you've seen too many drive-in movies.

What rock did you crawl out from under?

"Percentage of Bikers who are convicted Felons? .....

I hold you in the same light that you hold bikers! Free Republic has certainly gone downhill in the past few weeks.

If that's what you see, your eyes are bad - very bad.

[Ecthelion]

Bah! Get a clue. After that, get a life. After that, stop watching "Night of the living Meth dealing grandma beating bikers" on late night tv.

Hi All-

"...What percentage of bikers are convicted felons? 50%, 60%, 90%?..."

---

Are you delusional? According to the U.S. Department of Transportation - National Highway Traffic Safety Administration there were more than 5.4 million motorcycles registered as of 1985. The sport has only gotten more popular since then with the boom of the stock market in the late-1990s. You're willing to guess that there are several million unaccounted felons out there?

Puh-lease...

You are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay off base.

You are confusing gangs with the 99% non-gang people who ride.

What next, all low riders are mexican gang bangers?



(mental note: tell judge friends next time we go riding...)

You get your news from the main stream I presume?

[PushinTin]

Well if thats all you see maybe you need to pull you head out!!! I drive a $20,000.00 BMW and have been drug tested for 25 years. Your prejudice gonads a dragging dirt asswipe!!!

[Duchess47]

I believe you would be very surprised if you hung up your prejudice for a few minutes and met some of the bikers you see. They are doctors and lawyers and dentists. Many of the bikers on the road are the nicest people you could meet.

I ride horseback and occassionally along roadways. I have yet to meet a biker who didn't pull over and stop until I was safely by. I would never ride a bike, I don't have the courage, but I would bet there is a higher percentage of nice, law abiding, courteous bikers on the road than those driving automobiles and trucks.

People like you are why I carry used spark plugs in my bag on my bike to launch when I get hassled.

[subterfuge]

You're confusing "bikers" with motorcycle riders.
