    ¿What is a "rocker"?
    The first rockers were born in the United States in the ’50. Their idol is Elvis Presley, who singed rock music. The latter is rockers’ favourite music and they like dancing it. They love motorbikes, drink beer and wear leather clothes like caps or trousers. They wear boots, too. The rockers hairstyle is exaggerated. Nowadays, is less common to see them.

  9. Boy racers refer to teenage boys or young adult men who "cruise" around in vehicles modified with loud exhausts and stereos, or modified body kits.They are car enthusiasts who drive sporty cars, or those modified to perform better. Boy racers typically distance themselves from the culture.They are typically known for speeding away from traffic lights, playing loud electronic music, and reviving their engines rather than street racing. A typical boy racer is seen as a young man who sits very low in his seat and wears a beanie and/or hoodie.
