So who does it?
I open carry most everywhere but doing so on a motorcycle is bound to draw attention. Most people may not notice OC while walking through the store but bikes are attention getters. Also when on a bike the waist is really close to eye level making it more likely that OC will be noticed.
I would have open carried the other day but my route of travel took me through Denver. Which leads me to my next question.
Can one open carry through Denver while traveling on a motorcycle?
Denver has the only enforceable city/county ban on open carry. To my knowledge this ban does not pertain to vehicles as Colorado law considers your vehicle to be an extension of your home. As such you can carry in your vehicle openly or concealed, with or without a permit.
The definition of a vehicle is:
ve·hi·cle
noun
1.
any means in or by which someone travels or something is carried or conveyed; a means of conveyance or transport: a motor vehicle; space vehicles.
2.
a conveyance moving on wheels, runners, tracks, or the like, as a cart, sled, automobile, or tractor.
So has anyone OC'd on a bike through Denver?
