Seeing him towing his daughter like that is a bit sad because we all know that the girls won't be able to have many childhood cycling adventures.

I wonder what sort of free bike he'll get from manufacturers once he's in office? If he's not into uncomfortable racing bikes (road or mountain) it'll be tough for any big producers to come up with an American made rig.
