Or maybe his life is so incredibly badass he doesn't want to fuck it up by sliding under a guardrail on the side of a cliff on a gravel-laden curve? Especially true since he has enough money to build his own racetrack if he wants to go fast.

Believe me, excessive caution isn't really his issue.

It has nothing to do with having more to lose. Why should net worth factor into that equation?

Some people enjoy having the latest & greatest.

Some people enjoy pushing their bikes as far as they can.

Some people can afford to do both.

There are multiple Doctors in our local region that race.

I'm not sure.

My issue is with Ed's premise that a wealthier / "more important" person is less likely to push the limits.

Or perhaps some people (regardless if rich or poor) are too proud to take lessons or go to schools

Or maybe it's simply about the machine and its design, and the coolness of owning it, rather than the experience of going fast on it.

Or, maybe they do it when the media and mortals aren't around to watch them do it? Geez people, when will you figure out that not everyone does stuff so they can know that YOU think they are "cool"
