Boys on Bikes [reply to PIN-UP GIRL on a bicycle]

This may be a little more difficult than the chicks on bikes thread because beefcake on bikes hasn't been as popular a marketing method, but we will do our best.

Probably because women cyclists are all well built and male professional cyclists have chests like nine year olds. We're talking professional athletes, married to super models and she is the one who opens the pickle jar.

Have fun girls. Catch back up with you in another thread.

Dang, I tried smoking a pipe while cycling back in my smoking days, and with the flexing in the teeth and the wind-driven flame, it was not a wise move!
