Someone who chose wind resistance as a personality trait.
means A person who rides motorcycles (or sometimes bicycles), often as a core part of their identity and social life, not just a mode of transport.
from Simple carpentry: 'bike' — itself a 19th-century shortening of 'bicycle,' which fused the Greek/Latin 'bi-' (two) and 'kyklos' (wheel) — plus the agent suffix '-er,' meaning 'one who does the thing.' 'Bike' got casually clipped further in slang, and by the early-to-mid 20th century 'biker' had peeled off to mean specifically motorcycle riders, especially the leather-jacket, open-road, club-patch crowd, rather than someone pedaling to the shops.
