submitted. i liked the choice in 8th question what are your motives for cycling - personal freedom. if someone steals my bike they still my freedom. so i printed and put a sticker on my bike with William Wallace's speech:
"Sons of Scotland. I am William Wallace."
"William Wallace is seven feet tall."
"Yes, I've heard. Kills men by the hundreds, and if he were here, he'd consume the English with fireballs from his eyes, and bolts of lightning from his arse.
(laughter)
I am William Wallace and I see a whole army of my countrymen, here in defiance of tyranny. You've come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do without freedom? Will you fight?!"
"Fight against that, no, we will run, and we will live."
"Aye, fight and you may die, run and you'll live, for at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies, that that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!
