Re: NYTimes pisses all over adventure riders
It is kind of funny…he singles out the blue states and suburbia as the culprits. Then singles out Europeans with the Euro-Butch label. I might use that one, yeah its kind of Euro-Butch, falls in with Metro Sexual. Not really… as real men do what ever they fucking want and really do not give a fuck about what anybody else thinks about it.
Then he sends them back home to watch woman’s soccer, that’s who Briana Scurry is, in case you did not know…I didn’t, but further investigations shows she is retired, so no need to rush home for the kickoff.
None of these shoes fit me…so I am not wearing them.

Re: NYTimes pisses all over adventure riders
Here is picture of Dextor Ford and yes he is old….and yes even though an adventure bike is engineered for the out back, it does offer a very comfortable ridding position the bikes also have plenty of power and excellent handling, they are well suited for an urban commute, to work, to a restaurant and even to a coffee house. Its not really over kill since the true majority are actually typically making those trips with an over 4000lb vehicle, in some respects it is more practical and certainly more economical as it is certainly not wasting gas.

Re: NYTimes pisses all over adventure riders
Guess he got that load off his chest! Take that, adventure riders! What a creep.
Well, now I know what it feels like to be a Harley rider -- and having everyone make derisive judgments about you (only some of which are true!).
cheers...

That's fucking funny -- his sneer that adventure-bike riding men finish their lattes then rush home to watch a women's soccer star who's long since retired. Precious.
Say, MJH, what DO you ride?
And how's your recovery coming from that epic ice disaster last winter? Hope the bones are stronger than ever.
cheers
Re: NYTimes pisses all over adventure riders
My newest ADV bike added to my collection ...

I can hardly wait to pull up to Starbucks on what will definitely be THE coolest bike around. It is the rare 10th anniversary Xingfu 250 (limited edition in gold color)
Why is it categrized as an ADV bike? Well, I will likely have to push it halfway to Starbucks ... but that is ok ... part of my real-life Chinese ADV-experience.
Yup ... I'm just another "poser" ... trying to emulate one of these guys:

I've got the hat, I've got the clothes, I've even got the shoes! I just need to practice the proper facial expression.
Besides, I can't afford a 1200GS in China.

Re: NYTimes pisses all over adventure riders
I have a dual sport and I get shit from people sometimes, they ask dumb questions and I let them know it when they do. The most common one is "is that legal"? Or "where do you ride that around here"? It makes me want to say here is here and no mater where you go there you are.
My arm is ok, they unsheathed the radial nerve and for me it is now too superficial, there is a spot that tingles when you push on it. I recovered but will never be 100%, but I will live.
Thank you for asking.
