I just finished watching a documentary on HBO on Elvis. We’ve had remnants of snow for a week and today it’s 40 degrees and raining. Thus no golf nor riding for the past week and the reason for watching HBO in the middle of the day..".
Anyway, towards the very end they flashed a photo that could have been like any of us of a kid on his bike. I did a search and there were several other photos of Elvis on bikes. If only Elvis had gotten back on a back when he got out of shape????
Did anyone ride a bike like what the any of the photos show Elvis riding? Here’s a link to some photos via Pinterest.

I had no idea Elvis rode bicycles. I had an "English 3 speed" type bike which looked like the one he called "Hound Dog". I was trying to jump it and broke the frame. That was over 50 years ago.

Looks like a "studio bike" for photo opportunity.

As a kid he had a different one, Studio probably has bicycles available to get around the lot,

Regular use of Metamucil or an enema when needed might have been more useful in his case; and less long term use of narcotics could have helped.Originally Posted by rydabent
