Windows into Worlds: Bike Culture
We recently toured Saugerties, NY and I found this interesting window full of biker paraphernalia and decided to play with the subject and the reflections of the town in the window.

Can’t stand all the death symbolism in that culture. I know people who ride bikes without all the death images trappings.

I know what you mean. I don’t understand it and am mystified by it.

Love the accidental juxtapositions. They’re all great, but I love the second shot.

It’s just a death-defying game; an act;
a play of pretend and dress-up and feel free,
before going home and pretending
that everything cool is now back to normal.
My over-sized li’l bro rides for a group called Valhalla ~
kinda like Vikings rollin’ in on the spinning wheels of Odin.
A gang of married couples mostly, they organize and hold
many beneficial and/or charitable events. No trouble, really.

Thanks for this explanation, Uncle Tree. Glad to get an inside view on the culture!
