Women, Tattoos and Bikes
Riding is a spirited world ruled by men. It is an expression of
who they are. An alley for escapade, thrill and surprises. It is
passion coupled with perseverance that ebbed from the innate
nature of a man as a fighter and adventure-seeker.
Every rider has this urge to always search for new roads, spots
and races that challenges his riding prowess in varying
conditions. These stuffs serve as their 'aphrodisiac' to like
riding more and more. But aside from the three mentioned, riders
are also obsessed with women. Women are their inspiration. This
is the reason why motorcycle ads are bombarded with women.
Ladies in skimpy swim suits and thongs are made to pose on
bikes. They are the spice that keeps the riders kicking and
bouncing in their bikes - fortunate for these gentlemen because
lady bikers are part of the adventure these days. They need not
look far because lady riders are also rocking the trails these
days. A significant 9 percent of riders are women. There are
even some sites that feature lady bikers. When two genders
collide, it will definitely mean more fun!
Aside from women, of course riders are also obsessed with bikes.
They have different fetishes. Some like vintage bikes, some
modern. They are maintaining their bikes like caring for their
own children. They know when to replace motorcycle parts, when
to clean and wax them and obviously when to ride them.
Riders not only wear helmets, vests and other usual biker
apparel but they also wear these tattoos and piercing. But among
these two, the most intriguing are tattoos. Riders are like
walking canvass. They are adorned by various work-of-art
tattoos. Some tattoos are dreadful, some silly, some naughty and
others are pretty reflective of the biker's life. Some are just
product of their wild imagination yet some are replicas of their
personality.
The most common bike tattoo is skull. They come in various
versions and interpretations. For them, it symbolizes machismo -
braveness, courage and the feel of 'being a man'. Aside from the
skull and bones, bikers also express their idiosyncrasies in
other themes like animals, celestial bodies and other objects.
They even incorporate names of their lovers or children for that
matter.
The riders' world is really an intriguing space open to all
kinds of expression. You may confuse yourself with them, you may
not. You may abhor them, you may ride on!
