Article is about these two girls in band who commute by bike and just put out a Bikini bicyle calendar. Not too crazy about their music...oh well but I like the calendar and I like that they really ride bikes. I mean their music is really good, just not my style. What's really cool is that they are, I guess getting popular, but hardly drive. So I hope if they get really famous they will keep riding, which it sounds like they would.

Does anyone know of any other famous people (current) that ride their bikes for commuting?

Nifty! Why don't more commuter girls get all civic like that and put out more bikini calenders and form bands and stuff?

Boy, it would be tough to be real famous in a celebrity sense and still bicycle commute...I envision Andie MacDowell riding a bike with her kids under the Montana sky, but that's just erstwhile dreaming..

some european politicians bicycle commute. Jimmy Carter was fond of riding his bike to Habitat for Humanity gigs after he left the oval office, don't know if he's still riding much.

Mabye Robin Williams moonlights as a bike messenger to work off his hyperactivity.

Putting out a bikini calendar is a really cheap way to get popular.

That would be true if it were today's swimsuits.
This looks more classy having used old style clothing.

Great idea. Forget the famous people these two are hot. I was just perusing the calander section of a cheap bookstore looking for one that was bike-realated. All they had was the run of the mill puppies and mountains calandars.

omg, I was stoked and ready to buy a few calendars, but once I saw the price... wtf. Cheap and easy, but too exp. for an indie group in my opinion I'd say bring it down at least $5!

That's pretty rad. A bit pricey, but might be worth it.

Ya know I'm lookin' at a cross bike next spring. Maybe I'll put out a calendar of me in a Speedo traversing the Minneapolis ghetto on my C-dale. Anyone for pre-ordering to help pay for the bike?

Only if you are really hairy. Alternatively, only if you are being followed by at least three monkeys also on bikes.

I love it, hot chicks on hot bikes. What is there not to love?.. The automobile gets entire magazines of such eye candy. Bikes and babes....the fact they are a band is just that much more appealing. I bet the price has to with the production of those pics...that are nice

I'm saving to build an LHT ultradistance rig. I'm in if we can have a sense of humour and call it "Cheetos and Speedos: Men of the Clydesdale Forum"

Yes, it WAS a neat idea. Check the date on the OP's link. (This was a 2006 calender).

Since this puppy is back from the loooooooooooooooooong dead, I'd like to re-extend my offer. I'll even let the first 12 pre-orders pick the swimsuit.
