I couldn't deal with playing a character who rides motorcycles and has a leather jacket and is a tough kid, y'know?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Riding a motorcycle on today's highways, you have to ride in a very defensive manner. You have to be a good rider and you have to have both hands and both feet on the controls at all times.
I don't think of myself as a gearhead or a motorcyclist. I'm not that young, and this is like another life of mine. But the people I know from that era think of me that way.
I'm a pretty informal guy. I ride a Harley.
All girls like guys who are tough. Obviously, riding a motorcycle - I don't want to say that there's a bad boy quality - but there's definitely a tough and macho thing about a guy who rides a motorcycles and that element of danger. That's really sexy.
You see, I don't know how to ride a motorcycle, actually.
Eventually, I grew out of my interest in motorcycles because they're quite dangerous. I don't ride them anymore. But I have this history.
Biker chicks want the bad boy.
I know a little bit about motorcycles and motorcycle riding.
Well, I'm a Harley Babe.
I guess rebelliousness has been explored in many movies, but what about the smart kids' rebellion? Not just the motorcycle jackets and that kind of rebellion; it's the dorky kid - what could he do?
