Bikers Have Nothing On Runners

OK, so it's only been a week.  It didn't take long to determine bikers have nothing on runners.

Bike pants vs running shorts.  The use of the word "pant" is an immediate clue that bikers don't have any sense of fashion or practical wear.  The "pant" comes with fitted a giant KOTEX pad.  The pad is sooooo large it makes you walk bow-legged.  Not to mention everything, and I mean everything the "pant" is supposed to "cover" is visible.  Nothing left to the imagination at all. 

Snot rockets.  I'll admit they are gross either way.  That said, a 25 mile per hour snot rocket is way more significant than one at 6-10 miles an hour.  Can you imagine getting hit by one of these?

Bank accounts:  Let's face it, bikers are always begging beers off runners.  Now I know why.  They have no money after buying the bike, bike "pants", liability insurance for their snot rockets, and a wide and diverse range of other assorted expenses.

Injuries:  Runners have real injuries.  They break bones, skin the knees, tear muscles, all the good injuries.  What is the number one biker injury?  I'll tell you, it's "SORE ASS SYNDROM."  Must be hard, setting on your ass for a couple hours.  And to think bikers call this "exercise." 

Crazy.
