Random Rants

I'm a 100% with you. We once had a biker customer bitch about a non motorbike rider wearing a leather jacket ("how dare a lowly non-rider wear a leather jacket?") . The biker in question was wearing Chippewa Roofers, so I politely asked him why he wasn't actually roofing the feckin house…..

^ that is funny. And by funny I mean I hate that kind of elitist bullshit so much it makes my teeth itch. By that logic, nobody should wear denim unless they are working in it. Preferably in the American west around 130 years ago. Bellendery.

shit, I wear my IH gear to teach fitness classes at a gym and sitting behind a computer marketing vacation rentals… I'm the epitome of a person not using the gear for what it was intended hahaha
Plus, for some of us, if we actually had a motorbike to keep up with, we might not be able to buy leather jackets at all! haha

Humans have been wearing animal skins long before the internal-combustion engine was invented. So motorcyclists should get it out of their heads that leather jackets were made exclusively for them.
I'll wear what the fuck I want, when I want! (This is an 08:20 rant, as I have the dentist in an hour.

Regards the leather jacket for bikers thing, I've been riding for over 20yrs and in that time I've only occasionally worn a leather jacket for riding, preferring armoured goretex/kevlar ones for the majority of my journeys. When I did wear a leather jacket, it wasn't the sort of jacket you'd want to wear casually since it had armour in the shoulders, elbows and back, and was plastered with logo's! For me, any style of leather jacket that doesn't feature body armour is for casual wear.

^ that's a good point in general. In this day and age you can (and should) get high spec technical clothing for most physically rigorous/dangerous hobbies, sports and disciplines. Relying on 21oz cotton and tanned horse butt to save your arse from being smeared all over the tarmac would be silly.

Lost some legends this year for sure. 57 is young. Dunno if he was ill or was it drugs related?

Did not sign "my new contract" because the worse payment was gross (brutto) and not net (netto)
Back to job-search
Does @VaterundSohn hire right now?

@jdl1279 I wanted to quote you but did edit instead and screwed up your post. Sorry - please re-post
No problems G! Historically for his age and status, drugs would be what you would immediately think. However, it seems his health was at best questionable over the last few weeks
