I know what it's like to go very fast on motorcycles. Those moments, they stay with you.

I know a little bit about motorcycles and motorcycle riding.

I spent ten years riding motorcycles.

I have crashed on a motorcycle that was going at 140mph, so I know what it feels like.

I like Baudelaire's sentences quite a lot. I read and re-read him very often.

I like to read novels where the author seems knowledgeable, like someone you know you could walk calmly next to through a complicated situation, and he or she would be alive to its meaning and ironies. And you wouldn't even have to mention them out loud to each other.
