Old Skool Respect Walt Reichner
It’s not how many miles you’ve ridden… it’s not the brand of bike that you choose… It’s the respect on the road that you give and you get… it’s all about payin’ your dues
It’s not your tats or your road gear… it’s not your political views… It’s the respect on the road that’s earned and returned… it’s all about payin’ your dues
It’s not the thunder of wide-open pipes… or the croonin’ of Biker Blues… It’s your respect on the road for the Brotherhood… It’s all about payin’ your dues

Deep In The Game Walt Reichner
Be careful, my friend when you ride out there beyond the bend… out where you meet the spell of the wind out where tempting roads never end… out where such wind and roads conspire to work their subtle, consuming desire to lay their undeniable claim on a rider who’s wearing your name
Be careful, my friend… you may not know it’s a game you’re playing but such wind and such roads are playing for keeps… and before you know it, you’re deep in the game… a game with mighty high stakes-- where wind and rider and road all play their respective parts and what the road always wants, and what the wind always takes is a rider’s yearning heart

Can’t Quit On Her Now… (She’s Runnin’ So Fine) Walt Reichner
You can see by my outfit my ride’s been a long one… my bike and my leathers are all dust and grime
I’ve been long in the saddle been riding since daybreak the road has been rough and the weather unkind
But this bike that I’m riding… she’s one of a kind never had so sweet a ride that handled so fine
So I can’t call it a day yet it’s no time to unwind… can’t quit on her now when she’s running so fine
Won’t quit on her now when she’s running so fine
