When did Wang Yibo and motorcycles originate earlier than most people im...

Most people who know Wang Yibo know that he is not only a popular entertainer, but also a professional motorcycle racer. He does not hesitate to express his love for motorcycles and has shared many motorcycle-related daily routines over the years. Even his fan names are called motorcycle sister/motorcycle brother.

But do you know when Wang Yibo started riding motorcycles and how he got involved with them?

According to publicly available information, Wang Yibo's affinity with motorcycles dates back as far as 2014.

On November 28, 2014, as a member of an idol group, the not-yet-adult young Yibo shared what he saw at an event in Taiwan, saying that he saw a lot of motorcycles on the road that were very cool and liked them, and that he had never ridden one but so wanted to try it.

This was the first time he showed his interest in motorcycles to the public.

He was really led on this path of motorcycles when he and Yin Zheng met for the first time in the program "Everyday Up" broadcast on November 18, 2016 and have been motorcycle brothers ever since.

Both Yin Zheng and Wang Yibo are deservedly middle-aged youngsters, often calling each other Ou Doudou and Ani gi (Japanese for brother, older brother).

On February 9, 2017, Wang Yibo got his motorcycle driving license, and Yin Zheng was the first to come to the comment section to congratulate him.

It was also from this time that Wang Yibo began to show his fervent love for motorcycles like crazy. He hated that every original microblog was related to motorcycles.

The next important time point was June 9, 2017, which was the day he officially got off the track. It is also the start of his motorcycle career in his own words.

As time goes by, after more than a year of training and bonding, Wang Yibo officially became a racer for Yamaha Team, codenamed TRACER-85, on January 1, 2019, and officially announced that he will represent the team for the 2019 season.

On August 11, 2019, he made his motorcycle racing debut and won the first place in the ARRC Zhuhai ZIC Motorcycle Race in the D class rookie category and the second place in the mixed class all-around.

On October 3, 2020, 23-year-old Wang Yibo had just finished recording the finals of the street dance variety show "This is Street Dance 3" to become the newly crowned champion captain and left for Zhuhai on the same day to start training in preparation for the competition a few days later.

On October 7, he participated in the race as scheduled, but he didn't finish the race due to some accidents, but he ran the best personal lap time in history of 1'56.764 on the track.

Wang Yibo is a person who likes to pursue excitement and challenge the limits. In addition to motorcycles, he has also been exposed to skateboarding, skiing, ice skating, 4WD racing, golf and other sports. As a popular artist who is always busy and running around, it is admirable to be able to keep enough energy to develop his own interests, as Huang Bo said: he is like a small supercar with eight motors.

I hope this little supercar can continue to run, do what they love, enjoy the joy of the limit, but also to pay attention to safety.
