A poll of great insignificance

[BeemoKat]

I have no real interest in this information. But it might be fun. We'll see.

[tommcgee]

Rider.

[tessler]

A Motor-bicyclist?

[johnpeter]

I consider myself a motorcyclist...

That also has a motorized bicycle w/Robin Subaru 35cc 4 stroke http://www.bikeengines.com/

Biker? When two or more gather they are a noise making road block.:whistle

[thompsonr]

Can ya do all the above?:dunno

[jdmetzger]

I chose "motorcyclist", but I'm sure people call me plenty of other things... :p

[k100lt]

I am a HUMAN BEING who rides a motorcycle:usa

[ARValkguy]

I emailed my wife and ask her how I should answer this. Well she first said motorcyclist, then she said is there a space to answer "One that fills garage with everything except my car" We have 5 dirtbikes, the Valk and the new RT. No room for cars. I would like to see someone on here write the definitions of each of the catagories. I am not clever enough.

[BeemoKat]

I couldn't give you definitions either. At least not definitive ones!:laugh

[SheRidesABeemer]

I am woman hear me roar...:laugh

[Mongo]

I am me and I ride.

As for what others might think of me. That is for them and I'm not really concerned with it.

[soffiler]

Not voting because you're forced to choose only one. I am pretty much all of the above (even bonehead, occasionally) but I AM NEVER A "BIKER".

I think (and I think a lot of non-riders also think) a "biker" is a rider of a loud Harley who more than likely just left a bar with a full tank, if you know what I mean.

I care about the image I convey to others, and I am always gratified when I hear non-riders commenting how quiet my bike is, or commenting about my helmet and gear.

I am the antithesis of the "biker".

[gfspencer]

I cringe when someone calls me a "biker". I think of myself as a rider or a motorcycle enthusiast.

Still lots of time to come to canada for the Return to Trenton Rally August 18,19,20 presented by the Looni-tics pm me and I can tell you more.:thumb

[glennhendricks]

Whenever I say I ride a motorcycle people always ask if it is a Harley.

:hungover


I'm 53 with graying hair, well salt and pepper. So I guess I look like a mid-life Harley guy instead of a mid-life BMW guy.

[GrafikFeat]

I would say I'm a Motorcycle Rider.
BMW Enthusiasts are the ones who don't wave back... :whistle
When it comes up and folks assume Harley I say, rider... not poser.

[bobs98]

... so I'm not voting.

Besides, you didn't include what I really am, which is a

[Motor31]

I answered biker. I used to make my living riding a motorcycle and used one for transportation since 1972. To me biker does not have a negative connotation or necessarily imply that you are a 1%er.

I ride for my reasons, not to be waved at or thought well or ill of by others.

[Rpbump]

I voted enthusiast as there are many bikes that appeal to me. I enjoy watching racing and moto-X as well as trials events and marvel at the skills displayed by the riders. I like the quote " 4 wheels move the body, 2 wheels move the soul", it works for me. Ride Safe

[r11rs94]

I would say I'm a Motorcycle Rider.

What a load, Haley Riders are the worst for not waving back. They only wave to other REAL riders. I'm a BMW Rider and proud of it.:rocker

[BeemoKat]

It is, after all, a poll of great INsignificance! Those were all terms that I used to use interchangably, except "bonehead", that had very specific uses, lol, but have decided after spending time on other "biker" websites, to no longer swap freely.
Interesting responses!:bikes

[Rapid_Roy]

All of the above. Biker has a negative connotation, but that is not my fault. I don't really care what others call me. I like to ride.
