We pull up to a stop sign and I hear them say something about "riding behind the bitches"



I prefer to ride behind girls.
Ride behind
Walk behind
It's Much better view.

sounds like you riding buddies might be riding each other in private

My wife has that exact shirt !! She won't wear it just anywhere but has worn it to a couple of bike/biker events. Most guys do double takes and laugh out loud.

You can only read it when she's off the bike anyways since she wears a jacket.

I'll admit, I have ridden a bit more aggressively on the street when faced with egos that figure Im a "sonic" girl.

These days, I dont care. Im faster than some, slower than others, would KILL to follow Hokie and Kerry around, they are incredible riders and I could learn alot just by watching. I would include Trip, but since I never SEE him when we ride, I cant much learn anything from him. Another one Id love to observe and follow behind is Jeeps, Duc Divas man. He is INSANELY good with plenty of experience to back up his skills.

I am the same way. It's not about egos and estrogen though, it's because if you get held up in the corners it spoils the fun!!!

nope, I have nothing to prove to anyone but myself....I generally only ride with the same 2 groups of people and I know every one of them outside of riding too so there is no stupid 10yr old BS of who's faster than who between the guys or the girls.

We have a couple of 60-75 year old guys who ride with us consistently and whenever new guys come out, they always try to jump in front of the old guys. Pretty funny at the second gas stop after they've gotten blown past.

I don't ride in groups larger than like 4 and I don't ride with ass hats. So, no this is not a problem for me.

Nothing worse than a herd of cruisers being corner killers.

Fortunately, living in Kansas, I don't have to worry about corners anymore.
