在bikeforums.net上看到一段话:
In Texas, the "custom" chopper bike thing has been very big with young Hispanic guys for a long time. I was very impressed one day in a bike store in San Antonio. A kid, about age twelve, came in with his customized bike. He had done most of the work himself, and worked a variety of jobs to earn money to pay for each "upgrade". His bike showed the hours and hours of work he had put into it.
In a society where many kids that age are just watching TV, or playing video games, it was cool to see a young guy investing so much time and energy into something constructive.
大意:在德州,改装制作自己的车子在西班牙裔的年轻人中已经流行好长时间了。有一个在San Antonio的一个自行车店,一个12岁的孩子给我留下了深刻的印象。他带着自己做的车子走进店里。改装车辆的大部分的工作都是他自己完成的。为了他的每一个“升级”,他都要做好几份工作去挣钱。他的车子说明了他投入的时间和精力。
在这个社会许多和他同龄的小孩都只知道看电视、玩电子游戏,看到这样一个小的孩子肯为这样积极的有创造性的事情投入是很酷的一件事情。
