Silicon Valley for me. You know that the Mexican population (censussed...(sp) - counted by census, anyway) is the majority in California?

been that way for a long time now mate, same with most of the south western states infact

[Waylander]

anyway i still think the bandanna or some sort of patch would be a good idea and it would help new members like me to know who im passing. i wave to all bikers no matter what the ride cause thats just common curtasy

Not that long though really - in 2000 they were the largest minority (32.4% according to the US Census Bureau)
In 2002 they were at 33.2% with whites at 46.8%

Last year (2004), apparently was the projected achievement of majority, and according to a couple of reports from the Sacramento Bee (which I unfortunately cannot currently find) this was achieved in/around august.

*shrug* probably not interesting to anyone other than us though, and certainly not a General Biker Raving... although there should be stats on bike buying among Chicano populations

To get back on topic, wearing things is like a uniform. I like the "nod" thing. riding along, see a biker, nod to the left - then it looks like an odd nod to any other biker....

but what about every day walk of life sorta thing when not on the bike? Because ive met a few KB'ers that i havnt said anything just incase it wasnt...
one was the mighty Motu!!! Dude i think you came into work like a month or so ago - Old bugger from Deane auto yeah? ... heh heh heh! or one of your workers at least.

Well Spankme should look at getting some patches or something to sew onto clothes or leathers maybe? I dunno...

Does it really matter knowing if your a KBer or not? Anyway, we will end up with threads saying 'Who was the guy with the KB sticker/gave me the Secret wave/did a Kahuna Dumpster out on Miro street/SH2/outside liks at 8:00pm?'

Or think you're stupid

A salute is globally accepted as a sign of respect only a fool like you would think of it as an expression of stupidity.

We could wave our right foot

we could tap our helmets with the left hand (always the free one) .

Gets my vote. Sign of the devil, dude!

[Krusti]

God I have trouble just nodding before the other bikes gone. Maybe we should all have Red and Blue flashing lights!
