Is it illegal to wear your leathers in the store??
Hello all, this is more of a B!tch session for me that I wanted to share. Today before work I went for a ride since it was BEAUTIFUL. I suited up in my leathers and was on my way. My partner called me and asked me to stop and get a can of black spray paint. So I stopped at Kmart. I walked in, still in my leathers, and you'd thought I came in in a mask and was going to rob the place. I preceded to the back of the store where the paint was and a manager was following me. SOB followed me through out the store and when I checked out, went outside as well. WTF???

Lot of places over here have rules against full face helmets, but I never heard of leathers being a cause for concern.
Except in some places in Amsterdam, but that's another story

Generally speaking, you don't die on motorcycles.
You die a few yards away from what's left of them.
Yes, I have had two bottles of wine. What the fukk is your problem

You completely misunderstood...... he thought you were the guy fom the Village People, and wanted your autograph......or a date.
If someone followed me THAT long, I'd have confronted them, and asked him/her, "Can I help you....?" I usually don't get much of an answer, and/or they go away....

I don't think you would get a second look around here? At least
just for wearing leathers. I'm with Dave on this one, if someone
followed me that long, I'd ask them what was up. I know when
I wear my leathers they are pretty snug, and there's not much
I could actually pilfer with the lack of loose pockets, if that's
what they were thinking you were up to.
If you can't trust a Biker, who can you trust?
Regards Sonny

I don't seem to have this problem...
I have generally found that having a large assault rifle strapped across your back during these times will thwart all but the most stubborn...The more persistent in the crowd also tend to shrink back after you lock and load!!

Dude......I've been to your town/home. That place is cool as hell on one hand, and one of the strangest places I've ever see, on the other hand................
The people are weird. Funniest part was, the coolest people are the ones the town folk think are "weird".
