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

She certainly was. I feel bad though she seems best remembered for Breakfast at Tiffany’s. I think some of her other movies are much better and her charity work was simply unmatched

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.

This is just so damn weird to see supermodels in high fashion clothes pretending to be bike riders... is there anybody who actually thinks these are interesting photos?

I've heard chess fans also have a parallel issue:

Without a doubt and despite living a likely very charmed life of Hollywood royalty, rose well above that to do plenty of genuine good. :twitchy:

Should be a far, far bigger club, especially including pro athletes yet sadly is not. :(

And yes I know there are many that use their fame and wealth for good, its still a very small club, comparatively. ;)

Me thinks we should consider who/what defines "celebrity".........:innocent:

Speaking of 'bicycling monarchies', yes, it's none other than Crown Princess Mary of Denmark & the kids, off to school:

It is indeed. I ride the Hudson River Greenway in Manhattan and there are some parents who travel with their kids this way. I see them so often that it can mislead me into believing it's a big trend, but it's just the leading edge. Still, the trend is very encouraging.
