For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

#4 The look on drivers of "fully sick" Skylines/ Swifts/ Lancers/ Civics/ etc after a 250 beats them from light to light, no matter how many after-market guages, large mufflers and giant spoilers they have (extra laugh factor when its an auto and they have to click it into N to rev it at you at the lights).
