"The Biker" (Grand merged thread)

[scumdog]

Hey BD, that's more like real life - and me

[Katman]

Nice one Dave.

It was almost good enough for me to say "fuck the public's perception - bikers FTW".

(Almost, but not quite).

JUST A BIKER

I saw you hug your purse closer to you in the supermarket, but you didn't see me put an extra $10.00 in the collection plate last Sunday.


I saw you pull your child closer when we passed each other on the sidewalk. But you didn't see me playing Santa at the local Mall.


I saw you change your mind about going into the restaurant when you saw my bike parked out front. But you didn't see me attending a meeting to raise more money for the hurricane relief.

I saw you roll up your window and shake your head when I rode by. But you didn't see me riding behind you when you flicked your cigarette butt out the car window.


I saw you frown at me when I smiled at your children. But you didn't see me when I took time off from work to run toys to the homeless.


I saw you stare at my long hair. But you didn't see me and my friends cut ten inches off for Locks of Love.


I saw you roll your eyes at our Leather jackets and gloves. But you didn't see me and my brothers donate our old ones to those that had none.


I saw you look in fright at my tattoos. But you didn't see me cry as my children where born or have their name written over and in my heart.


I saw you change lanes while rushing off to go somewhere. But you didn't see me going home to be with my family.

I saw you complain about how loud and noisy our bikes can be. But you didn't see me when you were changing the CD and drifted into my lane.

I saw you yelling at your kids in the car. But you didn't see me pat my child's hands knowing she was safe behind me.


I saw you texting as you drove down the road. But you didn't see me squeeze my wife's leg when she told me to take the next turn.

I saw you race down the road in the rain. But you didn't see me get soaked to the skin so my son could have the car to go on his date.

I saw you run a red light just to save a few minutes of time. But you didn't see me trying to turn right.

I saw you cut me off because you needed to be in the lane I was in. But you didn't see me leave the road.

I saw you waiting impatiently for my friends to pass. But you didn't see me. I wasn't there.

I saw you go home to your family. But you didn't see me. Because I died that day you cut me off.


I was just a biker. A person with friends and a family. But you didn't see me.

sorry again

[short-circuit]

And it was lame the first time

[Headbanger]

Please God...NO.....not this drivel again....again...again...again

Though it is quite funny how often people stumble across it and think OMG THIS NEEDS TO BE ON KIWIBIKER.

In another decade it will probably have been posted thousands of times.

[Blatman]

Thanks for posting, that's what a forum is for. Someone may not have seen it and if they're soppy sods they might even like it

Get me a bucket

2nd re-write

I saw you; hug your purse closer to you in the
grocery store line. But you didn't see me put an
extra $10.00 in the collection plate last Sunday.
It gets the old girl off my back and fortunately
I still had $200 for booze and hookers.

I saw you pull your child closer when we passed
each other on the sidewalk. But you didn't see me
playing Santa at the local Mall.
I cant help being a fat old coot but this is a sure
fire way to cash in on it - and perv on those mothers.

I saw you change your mind about going into the
restaurant when you saw my bike parked out front.
But you didn't see me attending a meeting to raise
more money for the hurricane relief. And yes I know
that Hooters is classless, but I didn't realise that a Hurricane
was what the brochure meant by the 'big gulf blow'.

I saw you roll up your window and shake your head
when I rode by. But you didn't see me riding
behind you when you flicked your cigarette butt
out the car window. More importantly did you see
when I flicked you the bird - you *****?

I saw you frown at me when I smiled at your
children. But you didn't see me, when I took time
off from work to run toys to the homeless,
some of whom I evicted.

I saw you stare at my long hair. But you didn't
see me and my friends cut ten inches off for Locks
of Love. These days I have 12 inches.

I saw you roll your eyes at our Leather jackets
and gloves. But you didn't see me and my brothers
donate our old ones to those that had none.
Poor b@stards - I hope the smell might wash out eventually.

I saw you look in fright at my tattoos. But you
didn't see me cry as my children where born or
have their name written over and in my heart.
Later I added 'tidy your ******** room'
and 'no, you can't have $20' - in a skull
with snakes coming out of it.

I saw you change lanes while rushing off to go
somewhere. But you didn't see me going home to be
with my family - after I go to the clubhouse.

I saw you, complain about how loud and noisy our
bikes can be. But you didn't see me when you were
changing the CD and drifted into my lane.
Fortunately I saw you, you and every other clown
who drives like he got a licence from a cereal box like you.

I saw you yelling at your kids in the car. But you
didn't see me pat my child's hands knowing she was
safe behind me, giving you the finger.

I saw you reading the newspaper or map as you
drove down the road. But you didn't see me squeeze
my wife's leg when she told me to take the next
turn. Pisses me off that I can't grab her t*ts from here.

I saw you race down the road in the rain. But you
didn't see me get soaked to the skin so my son
could have the car to go on his date. The pussy.
Sooner he grows up the better. Little sponger
wanted the bike but there is nil chance of that happening.

I saw you run the yellow light just to save a few
minutes of time. But you didn't see me trying to
turn right. But I'm used to dipsticks like you that
can't drive so, situation normal.
Never a cop around when you need one.

I saw you cut me off because you needed to be in
the lane I was in. But you didn't see me leave the
road. I was in a hurry - the pub was about to close.
If you don't like the way I ride - Stay OFF the footpath.

I saw you, waiting impatiently for my friends to
pass. But you didn't see me. I wasn't there.
Unless the cops have hard evidence and then they
need to talk to my lawyer.

I saw you go home to your family. But you didn't
see me. Because I died that day you cut me off.
I've died other times too. Usually telling lame parables.

I was just a biker. A person with friends and a
family. But you didn't see me. So unless
there were fingerprints we can just forget the
whole thing.

Repost this around in hopes that people will
understand the biker community.

You also better stock up on tinfoil.
