When you do pretty much all of this you know for sure you're a true biker Beer

Even worse, when you see people riding with their seats way too low

Signs of a true biker --- Shit like this gets your goat --- to the point you want to pull in front of the person making them stop so you can adjust the trunk rack correctly. front tire is about 5 inches off the ground if that.

I was on my way home from a ride with two of my friends. We all had downhill bikes, which aren't that great on bike racks, so I put a 1 liter bottle in my fork to keep it from sitting too low. We were going down the road and for whatever reason we pulled into a gas station and the two other bikes smashed on the lip of the pavement.

Wooooah there, ppl ride with their seat low for a reason. So it isint in the way while doing tricks or drops and stuff so ur opinion is invalidated.

A few signs i realized. That ppl are true bikers
- you build imaginary lists of the parts youd love to put on your bike
-you have a folder full of designs of trails you would kill to build
-when at home and not on pb you are on google earth scouting for potential trails nearby to go shred
-you have every needed tool to do trail maintainence in your bag With you ar all times.
-you dread washboarding on dirt roads
- your parents dont understand how you care more about your bike than having a truck
-you get annoyed by quad riders or dirtbikers ruining your brand damn new trails
-when looking for a vehicle you try to find the one best and most secure for holding your bike
-every night before you go to bed you go to the garage to check if the garage door is shut
I have a million others but my hands hurt from riding all day :p
