Had a great day taking my Dad and Nephew to Calne yesterday, but what's the deal with the leather waistcoats? What purpose do they serve?

"I crashed my bike and my arms got ripped to shreds but there's not a mark on my body!"

It appears that the wearers are desperately trying to be branded "bikers".
It's the same as all the nobheads who went to see TT 3d in their Isle of Man t-shirts. Yes we know you've been and that makes you even more of a biker than everyone else.

Does anyone just ride because they enjoy it anymore?

I'm sure there are quite a few of the leather waistcoat brigade on here and obviously you can wear what the hell you like, but next time you go out take another look in the mirror, you look more Frankie goes to hollywood than Frankie Chili.
