By that logic you could argue that messenger bags should only be used by proper bike messengers.
Does anyone really care that much? It's just an affectation to show that you're part of the gang.
not the same logic at all....messenger bags aren't something you're given when you become a messenger...that style of bag was used by paperboys long before messengers were around, they've just adopted the name because they're most commonly used by messengers...spoke cards are something you're given to show you entered and competed in an alleycat.
There are plenty of other things that could be used as souveniers.
