I think we've strayed off topic. I don't care about people riding motorcycles after they turn 40. What I was asking is why they immerse themselves in the culture? You can get a Harley, take it out for the weekend, ride it all over God's green, but where does the desire to start hanging out at seedy bars, wearing all black, wearing a bandanna over your eyes (or better yet, a skull face one), donning enough leather to make a cowboy puke, and growing out your beard come into play?
I enjoy going to hockey games, but you don't see me wearing ice skates or pads to a match. I don't even wear a jersey (I'm not that guy). A hobby quickly becomes a lifestyle, and I'm trying to figure out why. And it's usually the quiet ones that you would never expect.
