Kerry rides like he knows how to ride.

Bush rides like he's out for a photo-op.

Kerry rides a bike custom built for him.

(the Legend ST, if the paint job is any indicator)

Bush rides a bike someone bought for him.

Kerry brings his bike on the campaign plane.

Bush keeps his in a shed except when he's around.

Kerry fell off his bike and still rides.

Bush fell off his bike and messed up his face and is
never seen on it again.

That's why he wears baggies on a road bike?!?

I never saw a single photo of him mountain biking (not to say they don't
exist, but they weren't splashed on web and front pages AFAIK).

He finished that ride, and at least a few since.

Sheeeit. Calling that gooberific poser a Fred is an insult to genuine
Freds everywhere. He dreams of one day attaining Fred status.

No pretense. Right. Just like he's a "real" Texan. No real Texan
would go to Yale.

This is BS. Note that it was sponsored by an organization for "tort
reform", which is really a Republican agenda item. Now, how many of you
have actually carried on a conversation while riding? Show of hands,
please. Also, he is not in traffic, he's in a parking lot. And what is
this about riding 1-handed? Since when is that a "mistake"? OK, the
cell-phone thing is not great, but he is in a freaking parking lot.

Yeah, sometimes he makes it onto the bike path
with his $8k Serotta!

No doubt an important call to his chums in the VC.

Photo-op? , just on TV last night, Kerry was riding around the parking area,
with his helmet on his handle bars, (I guess so he would not mess his hair
up and have to fly his stylist in for a workover), doing a lot of turning
just to stay in front of the camera. That was a photo-op


No, it was interval training, a time trial, a sprint to the city-limit
sign in a maximal aero tuck.

Who are you going to believe, the publicists, or your lying eyes?
