and is an expert stunt rider.

Does that mean he can wheelie?

He developed a love for biking on a British-made 2,400cc Triumph Rocket - and is an expert stunt rider.

Seems an odd bike to learn stunting on :smt017

So, he rode a GPZ9 in Top Gun and a Triumph (I think) in one of the Mission Impossibles, but he's only just realised that he quite likes two wheels?

Must be a bit slow on the uptake then
