The motorcycle guy, Alex.

Back in the day around 1952 a guy we'll call Alex was born.
He was the youngest brother of 9 other siblings, each sibling was so different from each other.

1 his oldest brother was the laid back one, never rushing, always very calmed, he grew up to have a family of two kids and a nice wife that makes the most tasty pastries, his daughter turned out to be a great pastry maker as well.
2 was the next brother, he would never rush into anything but he loved bikes as the brother 3 and 4 and Alex as well, he ended up with a family in another city and a motorcycle store that was well known in that city and the legacy continued through 2 generations up to the date.
3 also had a smaller motorcycle shop and a huge family, they (brother 2 and 3) ended up living in the same city, in this case his store was a bit smaller and with time it closed after he passed away.
4 got to have a motorcycle store as well, but in their hometown, he had a couple sons but he ended up alone at the end of the days and his store was closed as time passed by, he had a motorcycle accident at some point of his life and he lost one of his legs.

Alex went to work at his brother No. 2 store, learned about bikes and managed to raise enough money to get an awesome harley davidson, he was fast, slim and pretty funny all around, with dancing skills and a great charisma for talking with friends and strangers. He would drive everywhere in his motorcycle, he worked during weekends at the other city on his brother store to raise extra money for the week to attend the movie theater among other things.

He was a gentleman, he went to College and took a degree in Mechanical engineering, he met Isa the lady of his life and would bring her a rose daily while they were dating, but Isa didn't like motorcycles and it was not well seen in her family, also Alex's mom wasn't very fond of this motorcycle addiction.

He would give rides to friends in his bike and Isa would be jealous sometimes about other girls hopping on the back of his bike, but he was certain about being only with Isa forever even though he always would trick her just for fun.Suddenly one day Alex had an accident on his bike and he had to quit riding it since his mom made him promise that he would never ride again, it was too dangerous and also after his brother loosing a leg, to quit riding the bike was a good thing to make his mother happy.

And thats how the motorcycle guy had to give up bikes for a period of his life but always daydreamed about riding once again another big Harley Davidson.
