I am doing a Tafe assignment on Bikers as a subculture, and I have to create a design aimed at that group.
Anyone here into Bikes, and can we discuss the sub culture?

I use to ride a wasp coloured CBR250-RR until a in a hit and run trauma at an intersection in 2006... no insurance either so no bike since... always wanted a Respol coloured CBR1000-RR, recently bought a new car instead.
I was not really part of the sub-culture, only had the bike for a year or so but I really enjoyed the occasional nod that would be gestured by motorcyclists passing by in the opposite direction, just that subtle gesture really made me feel part of a group.

Cool, thanks for that! That's definitely something I can use in my research.

[quote name='PeterJMelb' post='18467' date='Jul 27 2009, 08:45 PM'][color="#008080"]Hello Kitefly.
I can give you some advice.
Stay away from the dark side!
Or become a bikie mole to get the full story!
No sorry that's bad advice.
Best wishes.

Thank you for the thoughtful advice Peter, but a Biker is different to a Bikie. No dark side required.
