About Me

I Ride because it is fun. I ride because I enjoy the freedom I feel from being exposed to the elements, and the danger that is intrinsic to riding. I do not ride because it is fashionable to do so. I ride my machine, not wear it. My machine is not a symbol of status. It exists simply for me and me alone. My machine is not a toy, it is an extension of my being, and I will treat it accordingly, with the same respect as I have for myself. I strive to understand the inner most workings of my machine, from the most basic to the most complex, I learn everything I can about my machine. I will learn its limits, and use my skill to become one with my machine so that we may keep each other alive. I am the master, it is the servant, working together in harmony, we will become an invincible team. I do not fear Death. I will however do all possible to avoid death prematurely. Fear is the enemy, not Death. Fear on the highway leads to death, therefore I will not let fear be my master, I will master it. My machines will outlive me. Therefore they are my legacy. I will care for them for future Bikers to cherish as I have cherished them, whoever they may be. I do not ride to gain attention, respect, or fear from those that do not ride, nor do I wish to intimidate or annoy them. For all those who do not know me, all I wish for them is to ignore me. For those that desire to know me, I will share with them the truth of myself, so that they might understand me and not fear others like me. I will stop and help when others are broken down on the road, be they in a car, truck or bike. I will never ask another Biker to do what I can do for myself. I am not a part time Biker. I am a Biker when, and wherever I go. I am proud to be a Biker, and hide my chosen lifestyle from no one. I ride because I love the freedom, Independence, and the movement of the ground beneath me. But most of all, I ride to better understand myself, my machine, the lands in which I ride, and to seek out and know other Bikers like myself.><><><><><><>& lt;><><><><><><><& gt;<><><><><><><>& lt;><><><><><><><& gt;<Thanks to Eric for the BIKERS CREED.><><><><><><>&l t;><><><><><><><&g t;<><><><><><><>&l t;><><><><><><><&g t;< Click here for your own Harley Davidson Myspace Layout
