Bike Night

It's a two-wheeled cruising machine -
alloy spokes, bent handlebars, 
custom seat and paint job...
yet, I get these very odd looks
and wild laughter when I pull my bicycle up
to an establishment that advertises:
"Tonight is bike night - Cheap beer."
Is it my biking shorts?
Is it my cleated shoes?
I know it can't be my custom machine...
everyone at the bike trail comments 
on how nice of a two-wheeler I have!
I've even gotten dates because of my bike!!
A man on his custom cruising machine
out to get a couple of cheap beers...
I just can't figure it out!!!
