The Chainlink

I think it would be fun to assemble a picture/video archive representing movie-stars, musicians, politicians, etc ... on a BIKE. My pick is from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969). Pictured here is Paul Newman and Katharine Ross. One of the great classic scenes of Hollywood. Any more contributions to this thread are welcomed.

Let's see, cell phone in one hand, coffee in the other, wrong way on the sidewalk, gee Alec why would they think you are unsafe?

Solange Knowles and her husband riding bikes to their ceremony.  They look gorgeous, but seeing the second picture of them standing next to the bike it's obvious that the saddle is way too low.  Also looks like his bike got a front flat.  

Looking back-Old School Cool-Audrey Hepburn on her bike.

Was very pumped to do this build for Henry Cavill, Man of Steel in 2011. Hard to imagine how you can cut someone a cool deal and sell them a steel track bike for around $3500. Jerry Chan put together this deal for us and told us you have to see the movie. Feature shot. As in the last one. Lasts approximately 1.2 seconds. Fame can be so fickle!

Short shout out to brands featured on same:

Campagnolo

I seem to remember Kevin Bacon doing some starry stuff on an eighties road bike in an 80s movie which may have been about courier riders. If that was him actually doing the starry stuff.

...to boldly go...

Mr. Sulu, please tell Mr. Spock that if he doesn't lock it I am going to ride off with it. He should have  deduced this.  Wait, is the Vulcan now  showing emotion because he is alleging that somebody pilfered his wheels? Now set a course for the local coffee shop.
