I was hoping there would be a photo of Daniella Bianchi... on a Bianchi (tall frame size). But, so far, no. :(

Or are there other celebrities whose name is the same as a brand of bike.

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. :D

Anybody notice what kind of toe clips he was using? One report said his foot got stuck.

Looks as he was trying to put his foot on the ground, but it hit the pedal.

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?

Looks like he put his left foot down and leaned right…
