t.A.T.u. spoke with MOTO Magazine about learning to ride motorcycles in preparation to appear on stage at the MTV Russian Music Awards on a pair of Kawasaki motorbikes. “I think a bike is the same as a car, just without roof and doors,” Yulia Volkova said. “I just sat on it and started to ride. I feel very comfortable on a bike, but to ride it fast and every day… no, not ready yet, I think.”
Her bandmate Lena Katina added, “It was an amazing experience to learn to ride a bike. And it’s an adrenalin dose: you start doing it and you can’t quit. A car gives you different feelings.”
