I'm amazed that this is the WORST douche they can offer! It sounds like a very "tight knit group" that rejects new people almost offhand and they definitely aren't interested in anyone that is different in any way. just the way T-Rock refers to making this kid into a "follower" kinda illustrates my point. On the other hand, it's a lot like our local forum that is composed of a bunch of almost lifelong friends. There are almost zero fights and they all know everything about each other. You almost have to be "vouched" for by a long time member to even get noticed.

You've never met Jason or Lucas?

They are great guys, world class people. Can't say enough good things about them.

yes. I deal with 600+ 18-27y/o's on a daily basis... and for ones looking for friends... that sounds EXACTLY like what they'd say...

think about it. everything you hear about motorcyclists is they're like a family... and for someone who may not have many friends to hang out with... and has a motorcycle, the only prerequisite to this "family"... I can see him being very eager.

Like I said in my thread about my Bias against sportbikers... I do a monthly sit down with airmen about motorcycles... it's amazing some of the questions I get asked... most are about the bike... but many have a theme of wanting to be a part of a family... or elite group.

Are you talking about the one with the huge-ass fork in front of the building?
