Harley riders who've watched too much SoA
 

Sooooo... I've been trying to move out of Gastown ever since the beginning of this summer as the neighborhood has completely gone to shit. Needles thrown over the fence, feces everywhere, insane crackheads swinging golf clubs at my head and everyone "successful" that I know is a complete cokehead. Ok, nearly everyone.


But I digress.


This weekend I was out in Maple Ridge checking out a place with an attached garage, as I want to get back into working on my own cars. Turning your own wrenches is a real fun thing that gives you a sense of accomplishment much greater than doing shitty, nerdy computer work for money and then driving your car to a shop to do everything for you.

After checking out this pretty nice place, my retired father and I decided to have a meal at the pub near the end of the block, the Black Sheep.

First off I have to say, holy shit, why is everyone so fucking fat out there? Jesus H. tap-dancing Christ it was like the People of Wal-Mart coming alive in front of my eyes.

As my father and I were leaving the parking lot in his Pontiac Vibe with beautiful air-conditioning, three bikers decided to start their bikes and blast that geeky "My dick" song from 2006. Seriously, I didn't even know that bikes could play music that loud. They got behind my senior citizen father's car with his "I <3 rescue dogs" big bumper sticker and kept revving their engines like three tribal-tattooed up homosexuals. Meanwhile, my father is getting visibly nervous trying to figure out how to turn left out of that parking lot with raised-truck retards flying down that street at like 100 kilometers per hour.

One by one, they just pulled up onto the sidewalk and hopped off the curb to pass my father, each one of them gunning their shitty bikes as loud as possible and roaring off towards Golden Cocks park. I tried to look at each one of these guys in the eyes to see if they had a hint of shame for how completely without tact or class they were demonstrating. Each one of them had the worst tattoos down each arm, so stereotypical I'd be shocked if each of them didn't own a pitbull.

The last guy was so fat that I couldn't believe a motorcycle could handle such a beast of a human being. He cranked it so hard on his fat ass motorcycle that the rear tire almost came out from under him as he nearly plowed into another car trying to turn down Dogwood avenue.

Seriously, I didn't see any MC vests on these guys but the way they were riding and acting in the parking lot was like they owned the place. The home owner of the house I checked out called me today but I was in the shower, if they call me tomorrow I will tell them I decline to rent the house because I'm allergic to all of the Sons of Anarchy wannabes in the neighborhood.

I might hate on the rich mainlanders driving up the housing prices, but asians are much easier to live next door to than pure white trash.

Good read

Wut

Every rose has its thorns

maple ridge, black sheep and billy miner...hell screw it all the bars in maple ridge, you're guaranteed to see bikers, biker hang arounds, etc waddling around their bikes and letting them rip loud enough to blow their eardrums, a lot of people have been moving into maple ridge, especially in the area you were at, so it's cut down on the amount of bikers you see but, obviously, they still show up

how much are you looking to spend? if you want it nice and quiet, away from bikers, surrounded by a fair amount of space between neighbours, you'll want to look around 264th st :) new housing development in there on 1 acre lots

did they look like dean from weeds?

don't move to the west side ;)

Bikers... lol visit Edmonton.

I love how they wear all that homo leather riding gear like chaps and leather vests... tell you they wear it for the sake of protection.

Yeah... no sleeves and a skid lid... sounds like that's the first thing going through your mind when you put that shit on.



I agree with multi, asians make great neighbours :) Don't tell Gululu that though, I like that he thinks we hate him for being asian.

Wow, all the OP ever does is complain... every single post... complain, complain, complain.

Looking in Marpole so I can be next to Pacific Spirit park :) Although I will have to go from a road bike to a cross-country bike...

hahaha

yea op, you sound like pretty unhappy for a guy that rents :P

Dude, have you never been to maple ridge??? Almost Everyone out there is white, trashy and a wanna be wangsta thug. A lot of my dads side of the family lives out that way, and hellllllllllll no I'd never want to move there.


OP, have you considered Langley? Or the parts of Surrey everyone just calls Langley? Also mostly white people but they all just keep to their own and ride horses

Oh man I lived like a rockstar in Gastown for several years and loved it!


I'm just 37 now and when you're that 40 year old guy still out partying it becomes lame reeeeaaaallllllllllllly fast. Most of the 40+ year old guys chasing girls in their 20s are total sociopathic cokeheads with very little in the way of redeeming qualities.


Besides... just look what greets me when I go out to get a coffee today:

I pay $2450 a month for this "cultural enrichment"?


Honestly, I've had enough, I moved down here to feed my creativity and get material for my books. Now that I've soaked up enough insanity and human degradation I'm all like:

Why not give Railtown or Strathcona a shot? :troll:

Ya my dad lives out there and the Black Sheep pub was like 2 KM from his place, so that's another reason I was considering Maple Ridge.


Bikers are the worst form of white trash next to tweakers and crackheads. There are crackheads I've been able to get along with, like Cool Kelly in Gastown and Ken Foster, but bikers? Trying to talk to a biker is like trying to talk directly to a stereotype. I've never met a biker with any sort of conversational ability.

They are like the complete flip opposite of the type of dudes who collect Minion dolls!!!

While typing this I was interrupted as a crackhead couple had a good argument over drugs and the woman fucking some other guy. Great work environment!

stay in the hood. you belong there. you fit just right in.

is sons of anarchy worth watching? pls respond

SoA is basically murder porn mixed with music videos that 22 year old wannabe stripper "pitty owners" will put on while they spoon with and gyrate on with their 25 year old "tattied up" construction worker boyfriends who have 3 kids with other women

i'm fat and have a "pitty".

fuck you jason.

I wonder what other stereotypes you fulfill

inb4 Fight Club :derp:

i'm also EI and drive an f150.

Pacific Spirit Park is by UBC, and UBC is not that close to Marpole... Maybe 20-25 minutes by car, in traffic?

Best choice still Whalley, close proximity to 302/t5 heaven

I ride at night!
