You guys can have your stick thin 7 ft tall models, I'll stick with Katy Perry... (lots of pics of her on bikes. A couple from google:



Interesting water bottle storage. Perhaps somebody needs to invent a square bottle cage to hold trendy water bottles...

Check out the Rides A Bike site for many high quality images - quite a few are large size.

"Here is Madonna and her De Rosa, I would kill for one in this colour in my size"



So would I.

I'd take another Grand Wagoneer like that one as well.

Ours had 395,000 miles before it croaked.

Ugghhh.... A Grand Wagoneer that is indeed. Sorry, but it gives me the most unpleasant memories of my job trips years ago in my boss's Grand Wagoneer and for some reason how he liked to throw giant turkey leg bones he got from lunches at Hoffbraus frequented around the bay area in the foot wells and back seat of that dirty, stinking vehicle of horrors......
Used to like those tanks, but that experience totally turned me off from them for good!

I can see why.

We loved ours. Towed our sailboats, took us skiing, plowed through snow drifts etc.

A drunk smashed into ours at a stop light and we walked away.

She didn't.

It took me two years, but I found that bike in that color in my size.

Then I find out Madonna has one.
