As promised, one for the ladies!
Yesterday, after a salacious post about those racy cycling ads by Sloggi's, we promised the ladies a special peek at a nice bike-boy's bum. But then, in fevered dreams last night, we remembered an old truism: Boys like naughty pictures. Girls like naughty words. Boys are simpleminded; girls have, um, highly literary erogenous zones.
So anyway, we dug up this wonderful old chestnut from Candace Bushnell (she of "Sex and the City" fame) about those sexy Bicycle Boys of Manhattan.
The Bicycle Boy actually has a long literary tradition in New York. The patron saints of Bicycle Boys are white-haired writer George Plimpton, whose bike used to hang upside down above his employees’ heads at the Paris Review offices, and white-haired Newsday columnist Murray Kempton. They’ve been riding for years, and are the inspiration for the next generation of Bicycle Boys, like the aforementioned Mr. New Yorker, the writers Chip Brown and Tom Beller, literary agent Kip Kotzen and scores of young book, magazine and newspaper editors and writers who insist upon traversing Manhattan’s physical and romantic landscape as solitary pedalers.
And if that doesn't do it for you, ladies... well, OK then..............................
