This is a wonderful series!

If you haven't seen it see if you can locate it.

His character's cycling is featured in several episodes.

There is one where he uses the bike on to pursue a fleeing "suspect" down steps.

They looked like plain, ol' plastic mtb toe clips and straps. I watched my 74-year-old dad fall over after getting his pant leg stuck in the chainring of one of my bikes, and it still haunts me. I wonder how the president's mechanic feels today?

Supermodel Karlie Kloss. Apparently, it's hard to find a correct fitting step-through frame when you're 6'1" tall.

Yes it is. I’m constantly reprimanding myself fit not buying a Soma back in 2010 when they were only $600 and looked much nicer

My sentiment exactly. I remember my parents taking us to the drivein to see "Wait Until Dark" it was so cool when I was a kid. Later I discovered "Charade" with Cary Grant but all her work paled compared to her passion for children. What a great human being.
