Big wet sloppy lemur kisses to Jena for sharing this US Weekly, Dec. 16, 2002 article.
"Lately, Keanu Reeves and George Clooney have been tooling around town on their beloved motorcycles looking awfully a lot alike. How are they different? Read on."Keanu Reeves vs. George Clooney
The Hog
Keanu: Black 1974 850cc Norton Commando (worth up to $11,500 today)
George: Military-green 1,442cc Indian (about $24,000)Memorable Ride
Keanu: A 1988 collision with a mountain during a "demon ride" (no lights at night)
George: A three-week tour of Italy with five friends in 2001Organ Most Affected by Cycling
Keanu: Spleen - he ruptured his in the crash and has also broken an ankle.
George: Heart - he promotes the Running Heart Foundation, which uses cycles to rush medical help to heart-attack victimsBiker Quote
Keanu: "I don't know if I'm getting better at riding them, but I definately know I'm getting better at crashing," he said after a 1996 accident.
George: "It wouldn't have been fun to buy just one," said Clooney, who gave five friends Indian motorcycles for Christmas in 1999. They ride together every Sunday.The US Biker Personality Assessment
Keanu: A bad boy - organ damage says macho!
George: A sweetheart - we'd take a ride any day!
Yes, George sounds like a helluva guy, but I'll take a dangerboy any day.
And I bet I don't have to tell you which of my organs would be affected by a ride on the Norton....
media spot | from inside the mind of krix at December 10, 2002 08:55 AM .George Clooney isn't as cool as Keanu on his bike...
Nice article btw...:D
Posted by: Keanuette on December 10, 2002 10:48 AMGeorge - smacks of flaunting his wealth, although he does get points for the Heart Foundation.
Keanu - would give his friends Harleys, he just wouldn't tell anybody. Rides for the joy, not to project the image of coolness.
He is coolness...
The thought of vibrating on the back of the Norton, legs wrapped around the coolest hottest man in the world - well, I need to just stop thinking those thougths at 2:07 in the afternoon and get some work done. Thanks for sharing the article.

Posted by: Keanuette on December 10, 2002 11:30 AMSo, hm, okay, what cooler: riding a bike because you like it, or just because "buying one isn't fun"?
Huh, The Right Personality assesment would say: "the second one is a phony!"
I can't be too down on George. He doesn't do a thing for me, but I hear he's great with fans, a lot of fun and an all around nice guy.
Posted by: krix on December 10, 2002 12:31 PMI am with Alexa. Legs wrapped around Keanu on vibrating machine --- *****---- damn, and I am at work too.
Taking break for cigarette.
Posted by: Tyler on December 10, 2002 01:07 PMGeorge is somewhat appealing, but keanu is the ultimate dangerboy sex machine who doesn't even know it!!! and forget about the legs, i want to press my...erm...chest up against his back...hee!
Posted by: Lori on December 10, 2002 04:13 PMkrix, I'm not against Clooney. I'm against people comparing the two of them. That's just... impossible to do. Two completely different lifestyles.
Posted by: Bea on December 10, 2002 04:17 PMI always thought you had to be a dangerboy to even own a motorcycle.
Posted by: Blue on December 10, 2002 05:14 PMDo you know what year the Indian is, Krix? If it's a classic Indian from the 40's or 50's -- or an actual _military_ Indian -- then I'll have to add George to that extremely short list of Men Even *I* Will Fuck.
Otherwise, if it's a 1999 or later model -- shame on you, George you poser!
But a 70's Norton is hands-down sweet.

I think the best solution for both of us is that you don't come back.
