6. Keanu Reeves
Keanu Reeves has definitely been taking his racing hobby to another level. His first encounter with racing world on screen may be in 1989 when he played Tod, a drag-car-racing slacker, in Parenthood.
You see on the picture, Reeves was riding his own bike during the opening ceremony of the Suzuka 8 Hours last year in Japan. He didn’t just buy the bike, he built it. That is a solid proof of his racing hobby.
The bike is called the KRGT-1 from Arch Motorcycle Company he co-owns. You would probably think that it’s just another gold digging product promoted by a celebrity. But it is actually Reeves’ revolutionary project which took him ten years to finish.
Reeves is not just a celebrity with racing hobby. He is an enthusiast. He even considered himself an obsessive in terms of racing, especially motorcycle. In 2009, he won the Toyota Celebrity Race in California.
