Nenadávejte mi, o tom kdo je nebo není motorkář se zde i jinde již vedlo mnoho debat ale nikde jsem nenašel jasnou definici motorkáře. Pokusme se jí dát společně dohromady - jasnou a stručnou definici. Vynechte zbytečné plky a pokuste se každý o konkretní znění podle vaší představy.

UKÁZKA:
Why do motorcyclists ride? It has been said that only bikers
know why dogs stick their heads out of car windows. Anyone
who has ever ridden a motorcycle will have a good idea but
those on the outside just don’t seem to get it. There are a
number of theories on why motorcyclists ride, apart from the
obvious sensual pleasures of acceleration and so on, and the
subtle pleasure of manipulating an instrument skilfully.
However, as some outside motorcycling have suspected, there
may be darker impulses at play under the surface.
According to the influential work of Sigmund Freud
(1856–1939), the so-called father of psychoanalysis, two basic
instincts interact in various ways to drive humans and account
for their mental lives: the sex drive (what he calls ‘Eros’) and the
death instinct (more commonly known as the ‘death wish’).
The sex drive binds people together, whereas the death instinct
is destructive in nature (Freud 1938: 148). The underlying
mechanism for both is the so-called ‘Nirvana principle’,
according to which organisms aim to reach a state of tranquillity
by discharging their tensions; for example, after a build-up
of sexual urges, the sexual act culminates in a feeling of balance,
completeness and satisfaction. The goal, according to Freud, is
the final tranquil state. By extension, since the ultimate state of
tranquillity is being in the state of death, that’s one of our goals;
that’s why we seek it, each in our own way, such as on a motorcycle...

Leather, sex and violence: a day in the life of a biker?
It seems to be a plausible hypothesis that the traditional biker
image of the leather-clad rebel arose from certain films of the
1950s, in particular László Benedek’s The Wild One (1953),
which was based on the real-life riots that took place during a
three-day biker convention in Hollister, California in July
1947. The adoption of leather as the hero’s garb is explained by
its associations with military uniforms: many of the motorcycle
clubs of the 1940s and 1950s were formed by GIs returning
from World War II; leather jackets were part of their kit.
However, it is perhaps the links with the German aviators of
World War I, who wore black leather jackets...

takže jasný - kůže, žádný textil...
