Mate it's tragic. Plus I thought MC's didn't like people wearing vests with patches in their turf, pretty sure the Blue Angels up here give people kicking's for that. Laughing

All the MCC's up are all "support" the local MC

Which in a way makes it even more tragic that they all have to proclaim support for "Black & White" and whatever numeric initials they are, on their gilets

I live in a reasonably sized town in Derbyshire, and i think by the last count i did, we have 10 different MCC's round here (and one MC)

You can't go to a single meet without bumping into at least 5 of them


My local MC are funny, half of them are on chinese bikes, and I've stopped after seeing one of them at the side of the road at least 3 times (they've always run out of petrol). They cruise around in a big pack at 40mph on NSL roads, which doesn't look fun to me at all, but on the upside, they don't seem bothered when I leapfrog past them all and bugger off.

.. in the finest traditions of BCF Paul0706, now henceforth known as Three Post Paul has gone, likely forever, and so we may never know
how or if his mid-life crisis resolved itself. Crying or Very sad

Probably too busy preparing himself for his Harley meets with a new anal stretcher he got off AliExpress... or picking out some new assless chaps.

Its not madness, youve just discovered your true sexuality later in life and should be applauded for your bravery in coming out. Clapping

Actually, seeing that you live in Glasgow, I think you would benefit greatly from a quality pair of leather chaps. In my experience, nothing withstands wind better than leather. Leather chaps allow me to ride comfortably in frigid temperatures, and really enhance the riding experience. Yes, in San Francisco some people use chaps for an "alternative" purpose, and occasionally I get a little flack. But chaps are a great alternative to leather pants; you can toss them in your saddle bag or top case when you get where you are going, and not be stuck wearing leather all day (they go one over your denim jeans, BTW). They don't look bad either; check out my Avatar, I'm wearing them in the photo! Don't knock it till you've tried it. Wink

To be honest it's more likely that I will be buying them for some gay parties instead Laughing

WD: I set out to prove you wrong, but found out pretty quickly that you are right! Two clean photos in a 10 minute search; First are these posers. They trying to look crusty, but they're too clean.

So I got my daughter to pose in front of our house. Wink

My mate showed up with one of those recently - I sat on it but the riding position is ludicrous... Shifty

Guarantee that the first time you saw that photo, you weren't looking at the chaps.

No I was looking at that bloody awful Harley, and thinking I'd like to see the first time she rides round a corner on it with those stupid heels on.
