Hey there, Cherry Girl here. I hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine and hanging outside. I decided to take it upon myself to add a little adventure to my daily routine so I ran off to NYC for a bit. Life is about the journey, right? The month of May was Bike Month, so of course I had to show off my cherry red bicycle and peddle around town with my fellow bike fanatics.
Riders were decked out in everything from professional biking attire to business suits to bikinis. But this got me thinking, what is appropriate bicycle chic? According to this cherry girl, it doesn’t matter if you are on a bike you must look S-E-X-Y at all times. Ditch those unflattering spandex shorts and put on what is cute yet comfortable. If I can rock my red patent leather pumps you can lose the padded bum pants. I mean, let’s be serious, the invention of the bike seat is painful but suck it up. Feeling lost in the world of bicycle couture? There are even websites dedicated to inspiring you for what to wear when going for a jaunt on the old bike. These sites are from all over the globe. For example, Copenhagen, London, and Los Angeles each have websites dedicated to keeping an eye on bicycle trends. http://bicyclechic.com/ Check out what people from different parts of the world are wearing in their neck of the woods.
Or one could go the rebellious route and just ride naked. Yes, naked. In fact, the annual World Naked Bike Ride is coming up on June 12th. Will you strip down and show your stuff? Ooh la la, maybe I heart NY boy and I can make a date for such a scantily clad occasion. I can picture it now, a bicycle built for 2 in our birthday suits. Doesn’t get much better then that. Send me pictures of what you wear on your bicicletas! But don’t send pics from the naked ride, keep those puppies to yourself. Continue spreading the bike love.
Tata for now.
