Attitude. That really bothers me. Why do some people act as though they are better than others? In reality we were all created equal and came into this world screaming and naked. As we grow up we are conditioned first by our parents and later by our teachers, acquaintances, friends and environment. Since our conditioning is not done at all by ourselves then why the attitude. It's not like you have made yourself high and mighty. The beginnings to the road you have traveled were molded by a rather large group of people and the majority don't share your blood line. Maybe you are living a lie. Of course perception is reality.
In my two wheeled adventures I have met the most wonderful assortment of people. You pick the line of work and there they are, riding the steel beast accented in chrome and roaring and snorting on high octane fuel. The uniform is almost complete, but never entirely, with leather, patches and pins, helmet, glasses and gloves. So there they are from all walks of life, smiling, laughing and sharing a story....with me and anyone else who shares the dream. Did these people ever have an attitude or was it was discarded when the leg went over the seat?

I hope you don't mean that bikers are bad attitude free. There are quite a few assholes on two wheels. But I see your reasoning to a point.
tc88,
Sorry I didn't see your post earlier. I agree with you that there are quite a few motorcyclists with an attitude but I believe that the majority are great people. I am actually impressed daily with the percentage of good people that ride. Of course most of the folks in our "group" are 40 years old and up. That may make a difference.
