[hometext] => apologies to William Carlos Williams
[bodytext] => Listen up my fellow riders And you will learn how to perform a bike run, Because you have it over the middle aged wanna-bees, unless you haven’t been to Sturgis or Daytona. Let the old Harleys lead! First impressions count. Shovels, pans and knuckles, chopped and stock frames, spoked or mag wheels , it doesn’t matter as long the bikes are polished, dark colored or black (which would be preferable) and loaded with lots of chrome. No purple metallic flake or candy-*** apple red paint jobs, please! Show bikes and rats should be mixed in middle to display some diversity. And the lead bikes should have only solo seats and *****-pads without sissy bars. Passengers should be viewed as hangers on. No mufflers! Straight pipes or fish tails without baffles-- You want to rattle cages, set off car alarms and wake up ass-holes that are talking on cell phones while driving. It will get them to pay attention. Let them know you’re coming before you get there. Take off the full-face helmets. Wear goggles and sunglasses, and if you must have a helmet, use a skull cap. Otherwise just let your hair fly free in the breeze. And if it’s too cold for tanks, tee shirts or vests, break out the heavy rough denim, weathered leather and the buckskin jackets. Chaps are fine any time. Leave the chic Italian café designs for the doctors, lawyers and business men suffering from mid-life crisis. Put them in the back of the line with the retro rice burners and rockets to hold up the rear but let the Harley full dresses and Evolutions be last because you want to leave with impression of class as you ride by. Now go out and ride. Be bikers, not weekend warriors.
