    I live on a road that is a common route for groups of bikers to drive by. We'll get anything from 5-10 to 20-30 at a time on nice days. I hadn't thought of that. I guess I can plug my ears while they go by.

    Fuck those guys... "Look at me!", "look at me!"... Yeah I'll look at your mid life crisis on wheels and give a special one finger salute. And I ride... Hate HD's though.

    @New Guy Damn, those are decent numbers, luckily there's just a couple at a time on the road I'm off. But we get motocross / atvs too. Doesn't seem like it's safe to walk outside right now. Open motors, dogs, etc... I need to find myself a nice quiet trail to walk on.

    @AZeurotuner Haha, I have the same reaction to those things, and have always respected the quiet cruisers. Props for owning one of those yourself. I knew a woman who was trying to explain the HD riding philosophy to me, and I kinda got it, but I don't get how those people don't have hearing damage from the wind / engine noise, esp when riding together. I'm sure that 99% of those riders don't plug up.

    My town is swarming with them, and it's always good weather to ride in Tucson, Arizona, so they never hibernate... I hear them all day and night, very annoying, most can be heard from about a mile away. And trust me those guys definitely have hearing damage, they just don't care.

    @AZeurotuner That's rough man, sorry you have to deal with that. I'm in the mountains, so we have motocross / atvs riding around too. But compared to 5-10 - 20-30 / constant HD riders, I'll just be grateful for what I have to deal with here, lol.
