Exercise 03-Motorcycle Collection







Mike Wolfe collects antique and/or modern motorcycles and he is always on the road looking for them. When he was 13 years old and while walking down the sidewalk he saw this guy who was like the high school champion stud—he was the team quarterback, got all the chicks, everything—did this incredible burnout on his Honda 900. He can remember the day so clearly, how warm it was, and how the guy looked at him as he walked by. he thought, “Oh, man. That is the coolest thing in the world.” That’s what started him on the journey of wanting a motorcycle.

Wolfe collects bikes for pleasure and driving experience, he loves bikes and now he even has a TV show where he travels all over the United States and pick up vintage Indian motorcycles or interesting looking machines; he seems to be a very passionate person and enjoys what he does. "With this job I get to know people and, almost every day, I get to experience the magic feeling that comes when I pick something truly amazing" and now he gets to share this experience with millions of people around the world through a TV show called American Pickers.

some of the ways this collection can be categorized are best picks, year, place where it was found, cost, brand, model, and of course pictures. I really enjoyed reading and looking at this collection, I was able to make a connection with it since I also have a passion for motorcycles and enjoy the history behind them.
