View Full Version : Returning Bikers

Seems we have quite a few newbies posting who fall, (!), into this category and they must all have some interesting stories to tell.
I have attached a little story of my own, I'd posted it a long time ago soon after joining the site and thought many may not have read it. It's a note about how it felt to become a biker again after many years and I'd be interested as to other's experiences upon rejoining the fold. How you felt, how you went about it, etc.
There have been some great stories on this forum demonstrating the wide variety of people who just happen to love bikes and biking! Hope I start something...

I've tried to return bikers - but the shop wouldn't take them back.
I offered to pay them to take WT. Nah.

Did you have them in the original packaging and with your receipt??
Bit hard to do that with some of the older bikers.

Recycling seems to be in. Maybe returning riders can be refered to as recycled bikers? Just a thought.

My wife... likes her air-conditioned, stereophonic comfort these days.
Pillion seat is NOT air conditioned enough???:scratch:
Stereo is SUPERB from dual exhausts (conveniently located under the pillion seat)!:rockon:

Great write up, Ed. It captures the spirit/soul of riding so well.
I was older than that when I started!

She's becoming quite enthusiastic now I've got the cruiser!:sunny: And I agree the aural stimulation from the V-twin is rather addictive!:yes:
