As for the noise bylaws I've heard trucks and car that are louder then Harleys and yet no one stops them. I know at least 7 judges as well as lawyers , government officials, preachers and many more upstanding people from all walks of life who ride. <br />One day I was at work( at MacDonald drive thru) and we were busy as usual. It was Halloween so we were aloud to dress up and I decided to wear my usual clothes for riding, you know leathers , and this costumer started bad mouthing bikers. I decided to ask why he thought all bikers were bad. He said they are all lazy drunken drugged out tattooed criminals who never worked an honest day in there life. Then I told the guy I am a biker which seemed to shock him. I asked why he was so shocked and he told me I was to sweet and nice to be a biker. I proved to the guy that I am a biker and explained to him how many upstanding people ride bikes. He was in shock and very apologetic and said his first opinions were formed from what he heard on the news. He told me that it was time to figure out for himself and go meet more bikers. He thanked me for showing him that everything you hear on the news should not be a judgment on everyone else's. I ran into the same guy a couple of years later and what did I see he was riding a Harley of his own.<br />People should remember that in every walk of life there are always trouble makers. That does not mean everyone is like that. Don't judge others for the actions of one.Denisenoreply@blogger.com
