met 5 guys at a gas station today...

[mclarke]

So I was at this gas station today. Filled up came out from paying and there are 5 other bikes there. So i say to myself, awesome more people to meet who ride..

Well let me say this... bunch of A**HOLES, would not even talk to me. Walked up said hello, etc.. etc.. they ignored me. I hope to god it was not any of you.

Sorry for venting, just was not a cool thing to do. I thought because we are all sport riders that there is an unspoken bond. wow that sounds cheesy but you know what i mean.

[PharmerKyle]

Were you wearing a T-shirt that said NARC?

... that usually keeps people from talking to me as well.

[Butterfly]

Where was it? springs or Denver?

[onepoorstunna]

The rides are mostly invite only, and we cold shoulder the unknowns. Can't have strange squids showing up and wrecking the ride with an ambulance trip.

[~Barn~]

Sucks dude.... But from their attitudes, it sounds like they saved you the trouble of actually having to meet them. :lol:

[konichd]

Matt, you should have gave me a call today! I took the Kawi out with the new suspension tweak and had a good time.

Didn't see your bike in the lot, must be an early riser? :lol:

[*KEN*]

I do know what you mean. Some people are aHoles. Should've pushed their bikes over and ran! Then you could've watched them go :o

[krod]

I was there from 8:30 untill 10:00 what were you riding? The group that meets there is always friendly. I was on the yellow supermotard.

[R1chie]

Oh thats what it was, I was thinkin it was your profuse methane gas generation. :D

[Teflon]

were they the old guys? hahahahaha

[mclarke]

i was in lakewood, right off of wadsworth gas station corner of yale and wadsworth.

sorry david, met a chick on sat night that have never been on a bike before. So i took her on a trip. I think we ended up in Aurora, not exactly sure just went out and rode all day.

Yah i have a tendency to get up early, curse of working early in the morning during the week.

it was no big deal, just kinda got under my skin. I know im the new guy in town but you know...

[SXSMITH]

Maybe they though you were the 9-News "Yellow Crotch Bandit" that's been robbing banks?

[AshliRider44]

i was in lakewood, right off of wadsworth gas station corner of yale and wadsworth.

sorry david, met a chick on sat night that have never been on a bike before. So i took her on a trip.

Hope you made her put on a lid and some gear before you let her ride with you-- :|

[Nick_Ninja]

Now that's a REAL trip :lol:

[mclarke]

Hope you made her put on a lid and some gear before you let her ride with you-- :|

I aint no squid!

Of course she wore a helmet I had for her and my light jacket. Has a back protector and some armor. Not a lot of armor but at least it was something!

Although she complained about having to wear gear, thats the only way I ride.

[~Barn~]

Now that's a REAL trip :lol:

Come on Nick. Berthod Pass it's not, but then again, you're not gonna find a FATBURGER up in Winter Park, either.

I dunno I've been on a few rides where someone was going the opposite direction, saw us and caught up, rode with us and were pretty cool.

Any smart rider would never let someone on the back of their bike without gear on-- guess thats more important to some people then others-- :roll:

Good to hear even though she doesnt sound too bright :lol:

I try not to pay attention to squids anymore because it just pisses me off but I cant help but notice the ones with booty shorts, no shoes and a sports bra on-- spotted that one while riding on C470 yesterday :no:

Do you often pick up guys at gas stations. :lol:

Picking up guys at a gas station is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get. :)

[mclarke]

lol, yes i make it a habit to whore myself out at gas stations as much as possible.

He's a MHM dude. Does this behavior suprise you that much?

[Nick_Ninja]

He can't ride with us on the noob ride --- he aint cool enough.

[RAGrote]

Yep... one big happy DISFUNCTIONAL friggin family....

[onepoorstunna]

wow the arrogance....... dont know what else to say about that other than i didnt realize that some bikers were just that much better than others.

What arrogance? Maybe in your world spending the afternoon watching riders get packed into ambulances because someone pulls a boner is cool...myself, I think avoiding the problem is easy...let the noobs go on some puttering noobs ride....let them discover the joys of what happens when they pull a boo-boo without my help. I'd rather ride.

[~Barn~]

:roll:

Please...

You're the one that said that you "coldshoulder the unknowns".

If you ignore somebody and don't take the time to talk to them and see what their riding background is like, how can you pretend to know what their riding ability is?

I can appreciate being somewhat aprehensive of riding with somebody that you don't know... It happens pretty much on every CSC ride I've ever been on though!

But you know what we (adults) do?

Yes, that's right.... We talk with the unknown person and find out what their scene is.
Ask them questions.
See if how long they've been riding. Do they race?
Maybe gauge their riding maturity via an actual conversation. :shock:

In a lot of instances, I know that we will actually even go over rules that we abide by when we ride. (If an unknown wants to ride with us). You know.... Explain the very real possibility of accidents, cops, weather, distance, etc...

You, for whatever reason, think that you know something about somebody who you've never even met, and give riding (and riders) a bad name, by simply ignorning them. Then you try and rationalize it by spouting off this middleschool shit about how you don't want your ride spoiled because of somebody making a mistake. Jackass.

What a embarassment you are, to not even introduce yourself and say "hi" to a fellow rider.

If you were a real man, you wouldn't have ignored this guy.

Somebody respectable with real convictions (like you're trying to pretend to portray), could have easily been polite, made brief smalltalk, and then simply said that this is a ride that you'd prefer to take with the group of friends you had gathered. No hard feelings. Maybe mention that you might meet again another time, or hell... Even suggest they visit the CSC website, if they are looking for people to ride with!

You're a coward and an unfortunate member of this club, stunna.

[mclarke]

amen barn.

The funny thing was, I had a date to go pickup. I was not looking to ride with people, I am new to the area, and its nice to meet people who obviously have a common interest. You ride I ride, wait thats something we have in common. Maybe you would be cool to hang out with. But instead they exactly like Barn said, showed me their immature side.

Now I realise people like this exsist and will always exsist but thought that 99% of us in this sport were not like that.

I look forward to meeting the rest of you, you have welcomed me with open arms (and a few wise cracks :) ) I can already tell you are a good group of people.

With the exception of a few personal jabs & sarcasm, :imwithstupid:

[~Barn~]

You know... I didn't want it to get me pissed, but the prick hasn't even said sorry yet! :x

He knows now, that it was somebody who's part of this group (albeit an internet group), but still.... He knows that he is a member of "our" club, and still hasn't said "my bad", or "sorry newb", or anything! All I've heard is "You (and people like you) were ignored and will continue to be ignored, because you might crash and fuck up our fun."

Everyone doesn't have to be all super-boyscout ambassador, but jesus christ... What's with this clown?

[~Barn~]

And the best irony, is that this guy still got invited to the picnic.
:lol:

[onepoorstunna]

Everyone doesn't have to be all super-boyscout ambassador, but jesus christ... What's with this clown?

So now someone who avoids the social, and obviously cliche-ish nature of a club, is supposed to apologize for not wanting to instruct newbies in the fine art of not getting themselves killed while riding?

And I'm supposed to apologize for a personal, non gregarious preference? Wow...I sure didn't catch those nuances in the rules.

Thanks for the invite to the picnic though, but I'll be riding from Ohio to Denver on backroads...which I view as a good deal versus the apparently required socializing.

Could the 5 A**HOLES been these guys? Look closely at the picture:

Maybe they did you a favor by not responding. ;)

[~Barn~]

Somebody saying hello, and showing interest in you and your friends shared hobby, can be dealt with, with a little more class than simply ignoring. Even if you are disinterested in socializing.

And I'm supposed to apologize for a personal, non gregarious preference? Wow...I sure didn't catch those nuances in the rules.

The only nuance you seem to have missed, is one called politeness. Someone should be apologizing to you, for letting that lesson miss you.


Thanks for the invite to the picnic though, but I'll be riding from Ohio to Denver on backroads <snip...>
No problem. One less hotdog choking victim we might have to call an ambul... ah-hell.... Nevermind.

[Bueller]

I think OPS is full of it, it wasn't even him, he just likes stirrin' the pot.

[~Barn~]

Perhaps... But even if he is yanking our chain about it being him, it still doesn't change the fact that it happened.

Maybe the true boneheads, are reading this. Or people who might otherwise act that way. :dunno:

[Spiderman]

No problem. One less hotdog choking victim we might have to call an ambul... ah-hell.... Nevermind.
:spit:

[rforsythe]

What arrogance? Maybe in your world spending the afternoon watching riders get packed into ambulances because someone pulls a boner is cool...myself, I think avoiding the problem is easy...let the noobs go on some puttering noobs ride....let them discover the joys of what happens when they pull a boo-boo without my help. I'd rather ride.

Fortunately for you, one day when you pull a boo-boo without anyone else's help there will be people there to help you, to maybe compress the wounds, to keep you alive. Hell, those people might even recognize you repeating stupidity and teach you, instead of adopting the mentality that you're just some poor inexperienced schmuck not worth the two minutes of conversation it would take to possibly save your quality of life.

I'd rather ride too bro, but you know what? I remember where I came from. We were ALL that noob rider once (even you), and we all hopefully learned how to minimze the risk and have fun out there. Some of that was through people sharing their experience, and teaching us what their journeys have taught them. Short of poppin' out yo momma's womb knowing one-down-5-up and what countersteering was, I'd say you were once the idiotic noob who could barely ride too. Fortunately for you, someone took the time to shelve their ego for an afternoon or two and help you become a better rider.

My, how quickly we forget. :roll:

[rforsythe]

No problem. One less hotdog choking victim we might have to call an ambul... ah-hell.... Nevermind.

:spit: :lol: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Person 1: "Should we help him?"
Person 2: "Nah, stupid noob chewer. Let him learn."

[R1chie]

We do know drama. :) TNT has nothin' on CSC :lol:

[Lel]

I am way behind... just gonna say barn hit it right on the head.

I dont know if this is a restatement (didnt read everyones post... but I think it was covered)...

Why not even say hello????? Whats wrong with saying hi... talking to the 'noob' or 'squid' whatever you want to call the other rider... thats fine... thats your opinion on their riding skill etc and just polietely say

"hey, were kinda a tight crew today give me a shout on MHM or CSC board sometime and you can hook up w/ us then"

my god... what has it come too when even other riders wont give you the time of day... I can not speak for all of the street crowd (though when I was riding on the street it did feel this way) but the racing crowed is like a freaking family... competition or not 9 out of 10 guys will be there to help you up or lend you something to get you going. Hell regardless of being another rider or not... what kind of appearence are you giving off to any other human being! Riders get enough crap as it is w/o someone being a prick to someone who is not in the 'crew'

[Monkey]

So basically this is someone in MHM worried about someone else doing something stupid on a ride...

I could have sworn we picked up a MHM member on a ride a while back, and the 'noob' was doing wheelies in the middle of the pack and nearly took people out..

What is it about stones in a glass house?

[mclarke]

Whats funny is, I have met a few of the people off the boards already. I may be the new guy but I have seen unending kindness and welcoming from 99% of people here. Take your piss poor attitude somewhere else.


Thanks for the invite to the picnic though, but I'll be riding from Ohio to Denver on backroads...which I view as a good deal versus the apparently required socializing.


That attitude suits you well. Maybe if you had an open mind for even a fraction of a second you would find out people are not that bad after all.
Enjoy

for the rest of you, ill see you at the picnic or possible sooner! :D

mHm wouldn't let me join, well, they wouldn't let me participate in their forums anyway. I couldn't do wheelies like they could so I got kicked to the wayside.

[SS929]

I'm not very talkative in person. I will at least give you a Hello or How goes it. Its just rude not to, especially if someone takes the time to walk up to you and see whats going on.

[krod]

" was in lakewood, right off of wadsworth gas station corner of yale and wadsworth. "

Is there a new meeting place I havn't heard of? Last Time I checked we meet at the morrision exit.

[Spiderman]

I hope you die alone in a corner because you didnt want to ride with anyone or even bother to socialize with people. Maybe if you had an open mind for even a fraction of a second you would find out people are not that bad after all. Or you could go back to sitting in mommys basement in your alone world.:| That was uncalled for. :no: As much as many people don't agree with his way of thinking, wishing him ill-will isn't much better.

I think everything that can be said about this issue has been said, several times over already - any more will be just like :horse:

I think onepoorstunna has received enough jabs in this thread, so please, let it end here. The point has been made, and I think the message has been received. What people choose to do with the information is up to them.

Ride safe everyone. 8)

[Lee]

mclark32,

I'm sorry people were so rude in response to your open attempt at communication and riding fellowship. When your guard is down, it hurts even more.

When something like that happens to me, I let it remind me that it's a rude and ugly world and getting uglier all the time, and that's why it is important for ME to be polite to others, to dampen the societal trend toward extreme rudeness.

I can't change the world but I can have an impact on every person I personally come in contact with. If I'm polite and friendly, then I'm certain there is one less rude person on the planet.

Lee

[Vance]

OPS proves himeself to be yet another in a long line of moronic riders involved in their own little miopic clic who think they're better than everone else.

I'm leaning heavily towards the idea that there needs to be a redefined concept of the 1%'er in the sportbike world - instead of the original/cruiser definition of 1%'er - we have the "Sportbike 1%'er": he/she who thinks they're too good to be bothered with comradery and the greater brotherhood of riders because they believe they are too cool, superior to, or purposely oblivious to said brotherhood.

My perspective: Shuffle off and go away OSP. Go troll another forum.

About the only thing I can hope for you is that you never need the help or brotherhood of the CSC or any other riding club/organization around here. Something tells me you'd probably get it because the aforementioned brotherhood you could care less about - but you certainly don't deserve it.

Well yes I consider this a dead issue, at least I know though that I am not alone in the thought that there is a level of respect between riders. Cant wait to meet the rest of you! Had a blast just last night.

Spid, why dont you lock this topic man. or delete it, either way I am taking it as an issolated incident that I am sure will happen again :) Doesnt mean I wont approach strangers on bikes though! Cant keep a good man down

if you ever want to feel inferior again mclarke...just ride down to the conoco or shell station downtown any night of the week.

If you go down there w/o any gear on someone will probably talk to you then :lol:

lol ill remember that!

Spid, why dont you lock this topic
I thought about that, but I'd rather keep it open for related banter, instead of closing it due to the risk of somebody flaming.

AMAZIN' UPDATE!!

Under a new ISP I was able to sign up with mHm last night!! ;)

But there apparently isn't much activity goin on besides people resigning from leadership positions high in the stunna community and the most popular topic ( and about the only one posted in within the last 48 hours ) had something to do with the Prez being a porn star and some compromising pictures.

And I suppose if I don't post some pics they'll kick me out again, even with lackin skillz. :cry:

Apparently the rules require a post every month or they'll kick you out as well. :?

[~Barn~]

MHM sounds like the most difficult club in the world to remain a member of. :lol:
