Biker Christmas tree…in March
This ad appeared in the March, 2009 issue of Rider Magazine, and just arrived on newsstands. This raises questions:
1. Are bikers slow on the draw for the holidays, or the ultimate earlybirds?
2. Do bikers share a weird ceramic Christmas tree jones with Boston Terrier lovers and Cub fans?
3. If a biker could only have one, would it be this tree or this snowman?
Also–note to The Bradford Editions: Enough with the “It Lights Up!” stuff.
