I heartily agree. Give it a try, and you won't go back. Just don't take the topic too literally and try to actually ride a bike kilted
As an added bonus, wearing a kilt makes the ladies that wouldn't normally give you a second glance go "Oooh!" and turn and watch YOU go by. There aren't many ways for a mug like mine to turn heads, and it's a hell of a lot easier than becoming a fireman

And if you're still too nervous to try it, then try taking a drive to a town where you won't be recognized, and wear one for a night out. When you see how much fun you have, they'll have to pry* the damn thing off you. Your mind -- and other parts of your anatomy -- will be freed!

*This meant figuratively, but depending on just how much fun, and what type of fun you had, it may also be taken literally.
