I do everyone a favor by keeping my bright white scarred up legs hiding in my jeans.

To add a little levity to this exhausted subject...I found this pic from a friend's wall on FaceBook and can only title it "I don't wear no stinkin' shorts...EVER!" :lol:
Another title might be "Just another day at the office"..? :roll:
Have a great day everyone, and ENJOY LIFE!:cheers::2thumbs:

Another round please
If I am riding around town, and its warm out, I ride in shorts. I almost never wear pants ever. Only when I have to. Now if I could take my bucket off my head, then life would be really good.

The only way to go. Tanktop, shorts and flip flops. The only big difference between me and "REAL BIKERS", is I dress to ride and they dress to crash!!!

:roll::roll: Nice. But your in Boulder city. It's like 120 there most of the time. Impossible to wear pants. I keep my boat there for the lake.

Never have worn only shorts and I never will....I tend to have bad luck so might as well be as prepared as possible. I have to admit, when I see someone wearing shorts I shake my head but to each his own. I have on a few occasions worn denim shorts under my chaps and when I got to where I was going, tore off the chaps and was ready to rock in my shorts.

Bubba BigDog, He had just got the bike you see in that photo and he was ready to wear his leather Harley jacket and gloves to, but I drew a line there. When he rides with me on his bike, I allow him to make his own decisions. Tonight he wore shorts and muscle shirt with me to the cruisin. Now remember, he is only 10, so we trailer his bike to within two blocks away and then he rides in with me.
Hollywood, love that boat! I have the sanger flatbottom with the blown 468. 105 top end, no helmet, no jacket. Just wind in my face.....and a few bugs!:2thumbs:

I tried to make mine a family boat. Wife and kids though I was nuts. She told me to sell it and get a bigger boat. I got a 32' Scarab with 2, 525 magnums. She didn't like it any better. Sold the Scarab. That one was a money pit. Never broke down, you just needed to own a oil company to run it!:D

Just curious... why is the boy in jeans, long sleeve, gloves and a full face?
Cuz he's a CHILD, knucklehead! Which means he's not old enuf yet to make his own decisions in that regard. His ol'man obviously gives a shit enuf to make sure he reaches that age. Then I'm sure Dad will respect whatever decision he makes. Jeez!

:roll::roll::roll: This thread is the best:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: I knew a guy that slipped on a slick spot"oil?" while on his custom ..at at light IN FLIP FLOPS ..he dropped his $30000.00 bike in front of many people ..and was burned by the hot pipes ...apparently his screams "from the burns yup his shorts did not protect him ?" Attracted a off duty LEO who called the FUZZ LOL and to add insult to injury ..THE DUMB ASS got a DWI and a scuffed up tank and bent controls ... I think he told the LEO he only had two beers LOL:cheers: Stupid is what stupid does. :loony:
And I can't even begin to count the number of fully clothed riders I've watched drop their bikes stop signs, lights, in parking lots, etc. All who've been stone cold sober. Even my ol' lady (bless her heart) once laid her bike over pulling into my driveway. Not because she was drunk (doesn't even drink); but rather, simply because she hit a tar spot wrong and slid into the curb at a weird angle.

The point is: Shit happens. Drunk (aka: on a bike STUPID!!!!) or sober. Jeans don't protect against hardly anything once over 40. Unfortunately, I know that firsthand.

Rarely....almost never, personally I just don't like the way it looks. What I do though, being in Florida, is sport a pair of swim trunks under a pair of overalls. Then I can hop a pool, a creek, or the gulf, or just shuck the overalls and have shorts on to stand around or do whatever. :2thumbs:
Lmfao!!! :roll::roll::roll::roll::roll::roll: Git r dun, bro! :up::cheers:
