You might be a biker if…
You wave at bikers even when you’re in your car.You have put motorcycle parts in the dishwasher.You pull your bike into the motel room and use a bath towel to wipe it off.
You take your kids for a ride on your bike before they can walk.You carry a picture of your bike in your wallet.You can’t remember your kids’ names or birthdays, but you can remember that Harley-Davidson made the Knucklehead, Panhead, Shovelhead, Evolution, and Twin Cam 88 & 96
