    March 2007 Bicycling cover

    You just have to laugh.

    Once again an airburshed man on the cover posing with a road bike, but in a nod to women bicyclists (and mtbers) everywhere, he is holding a Luna wmn's mtb team water bottle.

    Then when you open the flap, you find the chickie and the rest of the bike.

    Whoa, maybe he's holding the water bottle for her? (her shorts, ummm, don't they seem a little TOO low?)

    Open it up - it folds out to reveal the woman. I think there's an alternate cover that features the woman on the cover and the man on the inner flap.

    I thought it was cute that he had a Luna bottle. His sitbones are already getting wider...

    Is it just me? The first article title on the cover is "GREAT ABS", but I don't think the chickie's abs are all that great. With her shorts down that low and the light/shade emphasis on her belly, she looks kinda preggers.

    Ah, and I found the little footnote about the alternate cover.

    Knot, that was my first thought when I saw the female - who the heck could bike with shorts that low?? I thought the guy was built pretty solid on the upper body to be a cyclist though. JMHO.

    My first thought was a bad case of butt crackage that would make any plumber proud

    Oh, she does have nice abs, but you are right about the too low shorts. Are those real shorts or something they altered for these photos?
    I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

    I don't even like sitting in a chair with pants that low!
