Its seems to me that bikers share more than just fun, speed and recklessness. That is to say, to ride a motorcycle is one thing, to *be a biker *is quite another. Biking is more than just a mode of transport in ways I haven’t yet quite put my finger on. It’s a way of life to a degree. Whether or not a particular life outlook gives you a desire to ride, or whether it is more that being a rider leads to a changed life outlook is nuts and bolts.
