Being a sweaty, active, bicyclist is exactly what hooked me up with Mr. Right.
And cycling has often been found to be the FASTER way to get to work (in many urban areas), so yeah....it's very insulting. Perhaps the Marie Claire readers (writers?) are afraid of breaking a nail or something.
Is there an article/paragraph associated with that picture? Can you scan and post it for us (I admit...shocking as it may seem...I am NOT a Marie Clair reader!)?
