Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

The most bicycle infested TV show....

SEINFELD.

This green Klein on Jerry's wall (sometimes blue or silver) . Plus, almost in every episode shot outside there is a cyclist passing by or there is something bicycle related in the background. I was thinking, since I am a huge fan and watching episodes quite often it was sending subliminal message all this time finally pushed me back to the saddle

On Throwdown with Bobby Flay the secret envelope often gets delivered to him by a guy on a bike. One episode they made a point to show him doing a trackstand while he handed Bobby the envelope. Not bad for a food show.

I was watching "The man with one red shoe" the other night. It had a pretty good bicycle sub-theme to it. What kind of bike did Tom Hanks ride in the movie?

In Chuck, the brother-in-law Awesome rides a Look 585. It's only been shown a couple of times, but I have yet to see a nicer bike used on a TV show.
