Check this out; a bicycle advertisement from Korea showing a pretty girl just looking cool with a bicycle.

This is refreshing. I would like to see bicycle ads like this in the states appealing to youth. Somehow, it just makes bicycles look cool.

If I could get a hat like that that was a helmet I would be so happy.

Yes, her winged helmet/hat is kind of reminiscent of Sheldon Brown's helmet with the eagle on it.

Took some educated guessing, but I found the less-compressed pics here:

She doesn't ride with the seat that low in that skirt, that's all I know.

Maybe she's into flatland tricks?

Maybe not... no pegs on those axles.

Gadzooks! Those chicks are all riding muscle bikes and it seems to make sense. They look tougher than any guy I have ever seen on a muscle bike!

You clearly haven't seen a womans thread of the sort filled with pictures of guys in tight lycra with the camera targeted at various interesting and possibly unintended angles.

She is a poseur, those are not cyclist's legs, no muscle definition.

Oh god... it's her...
She's a korean supermodel, virtually the Korean Heidi Klum, of course she wouldn't ride a bicycle.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jun_Ji-hyun

I'm surprised she even signed up for this though, I'd like to see Heidi Klum do bike ads.

That IS a Helmet!

It's called a "Pith Helmet".

If you've ever seen old movies, the explorers wore them while exploring 'Darkest Africa".

If shadowgray is correct that the model's name is Jun Ji Hyun, then these would be her legs.

Are they the legs of someone who might bicycle? Hmm...

I hope so.

Anyone who hasn't seen her in My Sassy Girl should either go rent it or you can watch it on YouTube for free. Incredible, funny movie.

(They've remade it with Elisha Cuthbert, but I can't imagine the American version retaining all the wacky charm.)

Those legs have to be airbrushed. No ones legs are that thin! :eek:

They can be when they stay way too thin to begin with and avoid definition by avoiding as much exercise as possible.

C'mon people, different parts of the world have different body types, not everyone is going to look like Xena Warrior Princess when they are fit. Also, I bet if she lives in Seoul she walks more than any of us on a day-to-day basis. She looks pretty fit to me in those bike ads. Don't be stupid.

Her calves are thin, and the photographer or fashion shoot designer has draped her skirt carefully to make her thighs look thin.
