Comments on "This Is Why Biking Is Good For Your Legs, NYC"
Fantastic legs!!!!!(leg)I'm sure the other one is quite lovely too.
The chick in the background looks like a winner too! Should of waited Scott.
Gladman
I hope she finds your blog. Beautiful composition.
Gorgeous legs and hair! could it be good for your hair as well?
the shoe detail is fab.
She looks great!

hot.ness.
Strong beatiful legs. I love how their muscular and toned and not waif skinny.
Yes, I totally agree with Scott and the caption. I also agree with "anonymous."
You gotta love NYC in the summer. Makes me want to jump on the next plane to LaGuardia.
beautiful girls
great movie too
The Covetist
As a woman, I love this, mostly because it took until my late 20s to realize that stick skinny legs were not actually great legs. That legs with a little muscle and curve are great legs! It's a beautiful picture and a beautiful point.
terras nailed it.
Those legs... I die.
Classic street shot!
I love biking!! Why my legs do not look this way ))???
wow
What a stylish ride this is!!!
xxx
jajajjaj agreee!!
kisses :)
Love her feet and the woman in the background is noteworthy as well!
Gorgeous
I die for NY girls... both in the pic...
Have a look to the perfect ensamble of the bag/skirt/kwear...
Love NY girls !!!!

That could be a public service announcement promoting the benefits of bicycling! :-)
much better than the Saggy Debate! very much better!
Great shot! I love it.
That's that great set of legs (and a great photo).
total winner. beautiful legs, great head of hair and chic, practical attire.
What a great shot it has quite made my day. Lovely legs, hair & posture!
Great shot. She looks gorgeous.
she looks so cute!

Oh wow, I am envious.
Couldn't be sexier if she were nude.
Ever since I was old enough to care, I've strongly held the belief that New Yorkers have the best legs of anyone. My personal theory on the matter is that it has something to do with both public and private transportation being so expensive in the city. I'm joking, of course, but I'm also kind of not joking.
Such a stunning picture...she's so chic and sporty at the same time. And I can testify to biking as a good means to amazing legs...once I started using it as my way of commuting, I definitely noticed a huge improvement!

Traffic accidents in NY increase in Summer. Apparently, men find it difficult to keep their eyes on the road. "What girl? what legs? I'm only watching the traffic, Love." Killer legs. Nice photo.
Yes, biking is good for your legs! She looks fantastic, I love the little skirt with this, as if it wasn't slightly odd to wear with a bike. Which I guess it isn't.
Perfect in every way possible. I wish there were a 1000 pictures of her, her bike and those perfect legs.
great legs. wouldve been better is she was wearing heels :)
If only she were wearing a helmet, then the picture would be perfect.
I really love cicling, but it has not the same results on me! I love your blog, you take a personal point of view of the world you are living in!I think that Your pics are artistic, narcissist, but naive in the same time... I hope to meet you one day somewhere... kisses from Italy
p.s. I bought your book and I have definitively enjoyed it
Oh my god, these are legs! Perfect duet with the air. I want this color and texture for mines(talking for both things, hair and legs)
wow, sexy!
even sexier if she were to put on a nice helmet (to protect that pretty noggin)...
http://sexyetsy.tumblr.com/
here's hope we can all look so comfortably like a ballerina on point. love the shape of her legs, hurray for strength and vitality!
wow. love her colors.
jimjims.net/
You know that in the Netherlands we bike more than anywhere in the world..? :)makes you think..
Shazam! Great gams, Batman!
Seriously, though. I need a bike.
The way her feet are on tiptoe just makes the pose seem so much more elegant...and her skin tone is amazing.
The woman in the background looks like she has scary legs!
http://grumpyguypete.blogspot.com/
she's got legs all the way up to her hips! oh for a couple of other angle shots.
Her feet look impossibly small. I am chartreuse with envy. Thank You for this beautiful photo!
i love how her practical flat is coming off just a bit. so casual and unaffected and sexy.
I bike all the time, 20 miles each time. It gives you great legs.
www.FashionSnag.com
We love to bike to the shop.
i ALWAYS love the bike pics. and this is one of the best. but i hate that no one is ever wearing a helmet! not so fashionable i know, but be safe!
pretty outfit and gorgeous legs ,
artsysunday.blogspot.com
Love it! I want to get a bike now.
www.lipstickmanual.blogspot.com
Wow.
Isn't she just gorgeous?
Great photograph. I love to see people biking down the streets of NYC. She looks great, even matches her bike.
How come New Yorkers always seem to match even their bikes? I think it comes down to a fashion thing. One of the other readers mentioned winter, yes she is wearing transitional colors. I think everyone is kind of pushing it this year. The styles are so fun for fall, nobody wants to wait!
I so ... wanna marry her lol
Priceless girl and pic.
Thanx scott
My boyfriend's sister leads spin classes everyday and she has amazing legs, so it's definitely the biking!
Gorgeous legs!!!!! That's a total understatement. You need to find this woman and get more pictures of her.
The woman in the background would not be bad, either.
great picture!
but it's really awful feeling when your ballerina shoes are falling off your feet during riding on bicycle...
the-red-zebra.blogspot.com
beautiful legs!
i'm sure next time someone ask me what i want as a bday present im gonna tell them a beautiful bike!
Everything seems just perfect. She looks stylish and comfortable.
She´s drop dead gorgeous.
this photo makes me appreciate my own shapely legs a little bit more.
ok I'm going to the gym like NOW! cycling classes!
www.cinfulthings.blogspot.com
Her legs do look very fit and smooth.
Great shot. Methinks in this case biking is better for your eyes than her legs. She's blessed with great genes overall. (And where are the complainers on this one? Look! She's not wearing a helmet! Call the helmet police!)
I love these comments! I live in Paris and my then boyfriend loved the women, who also ride their bikes with skirts, so much that he wrote tribute song to them, called "Une fille à bicyclette." It's in french but at the end he cries, Merci, Merci Bertrand to the Mayor of Paris, Mayor Bertrand Delanoe!
There is something irresistibly sexy about women on bikes. It's such an appealing mixture of elegance and sensuality. As childish and innocent as they first look yet they're such an artistic expression of the tensioned muscles describing round shapes.
you said it..
http://thestainsoffashion.blogspot.com
love this! makes you wonder why stick skinny models are considered beautiful
WOW. agreed.
She looks fantastic!
Is not wearing a helmet a NYC thing?
It seems all the Sartorialist pics of cyclists are sans helmet. That's not how we roll in Seattle! Too many hills... ;)
With legs like that no one cares what you're wearing!
Great (photo) catch!
Great bike, great legs, great city...
Haawwt.

The perfect model for a Petty illustration!
--JW
I absolutely love her "cuteness"! Something I think a lot of women overlook, but is amazingly attractive.
She'd probably be a wonderful dancer, if she's not one already. She's got great "point" as they say in the ballet world. Perfect tan, not too dark, sensually muscular, smooth, amazing. It's great that we can all go gaga over this, even in a world over-saturated with porn.
Phew! There's nothing to beat cycling for firming up the calves.
As for the babe in the background . . . her legs are cabriole. Bit of a nut-crusher, I suspect.
Give me the girl on the bike any day!
Time to get my bike out and ditch the car!
Great legs! Wonder if I can still ride a bike lol.
Some people are so lucky. I bet she never rides her bike normally!
Great pair!
Yes! She has such sexy legs! And I agree with the first poster that you shouldn't taken a pitcure of the girl in the background too.
Gotta love NYC!
I love what everyone said about her, and the bag too O.O!
She's ready to get out of that bike and have a date <3.
I love seeing photos of all these stylish women and men riding bikes, but wish desperately that they would all wear helmets! Sure, they may not look cool (though some companies are trying to fix that) and probably will mess up your hair, but wouldn't it be nice to drastically reduce your risk of brain damage or possibly even death? C'mon, you're riding in NYC, with the craziest drivers around. Give yourself a fighting chance to survive a bicycle-vehicle accident!
OMG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
beautiful shot.
love the bike, best way to get around the city...
thecoffeeexperiment.blogspot.com
she looks amazing!!!!
but i really dont like the way her shoe is hanging in the air
A miniskirt on a bike? Her bravery is admirable.
I like her simple style and even the arch of her foot is sexy...
What a fantastic photo!
And leg.
A bit of jealousy is bubbling....
Glad she's not wearing a helmet -- they look silly and they're mostly pointless. No one wears them in most other countries in the world.
They're not all that. Really. If you want to learn more, check out cyclehelmets.org
agreed!
but i am just curious - how do you bike wearing short skirt like this?
thanks for the post!
i happened to have legs like hers and always complain i have big calves. now i see people actually appreciate that :)
great shot! what's impressive is she's wearing a mini skirt!!
http://style-haus.blogspot.com/
Yes biking is very good for the legs! Beautiful composition i agree.
If you ever start selling posters with your photography, I would buy this to hang in my living room.
Ummm, yea. Her legs are fantastic! Good for her:)
She is gorgeous!!!
Great photo..
loving her body language on the bike.. looking very powerful. (although she is on a bike.. but still)
LOx
Great pic! Love the detail of the foot out of its flat! amazing!
www.abitoffashion.com
which naturally into this picture ... you are great
wonderful, but biking i NYC is somehow scary
I wish I knew how to bike... sigh!
The legs, the bike, the ways she is dressed...a great example of why showing less is sexier than showing a lot! Oh, my wife just saw the photo and I might have just lost her to this girl lol!
Since this is the summer of BP's oil spill, I vote that this photo be splashed on billboards, tvs, movie theatre screens, etc. across the U.S. to get more folks on bikes. (As anyone who rides one to work in a skirt knows, you get treated like a freak for doing it.)Bravo, Scott!
Love this picture !
To Anon. regarding her big calves...my wife is former Ford model, with strong, athletic-dancer muscular legs like this woman, its all about proportion, skinny model legs or well-muscled. These are leg-model legs and HOT!!!!!!!If you got 'em flaunt them!
Soo True. Because of biking, I have so much more confidence when sporting my short shorts!
Biking won't make your legs any more muscular. This woman probably does a lot of heavy squats at the gym, and more people (men and women) should!
I was just looking at this blog, which i do almost every day, and a friend of mine walked by and said "hey nice photo, who took it?" assuming it was me in the photo (same legs and hair, he said)
and after that, and reading all of the comments i felt really, really flattered. i've always felt very insecure about my body and muscular legs, even though men always liked them very much. this is like a reality-mirror for me.
Thank you so much for posting this!
yowser! perfecto!
http://lucasjonesart.blogspot.com
This definitely makes me want to get a bike! Her legs are incredible.
Wop Wop Nice legs !!!

-diary of a fashion stylist-
By the way -Miss HK- Guy at work saw this photo, your comment and my message to you and agrees, "any woman with legs like that should be happy,isn't that why the stairmaster was invented? I just want to squeeze them!" 'nuff said, and said well.Be Happy.
More legs please!
The arch in her foot is the sexiest thing I've ever seen...
youth is good for your legs
Amazing legs!!! makes wanna go to the gym more!!
Looked and thought: these legs were already great before biking! After reading the comment from leg-owner Miss HK I believe that thought was right.
I wish Sydney wasn't so hilly so I could ride my bike more. I miss European flat cities and biking everywhere.
oh, how i love bicycles.. they add so much to any outfit :)
http://faialofa.blogspot.com
She's like an athletic, fashionable gal from a 1940's advert! Lovely!
Gorgeous legs, but she is so going to end up losing those shoes on this journey...
Now that is sexy. We need more of these healthy images of physical beauty embedded in people's minds.
i love this photo, so cool, caught in a moment

nice to see 'bigger' calves considered attractive.so use to seeing only pins praised!
legggs. love it
I rode my bike 5 miles to work today after seeing this picture. I always am insecure about my "big legs" but this girl shows how sexy toned, muscular legs can be.
and in response to an earlier comment, i think that biking CAN give you legs like that... you just have to bike everywhere, all the time.
so totally jealous of her legs, cute shot
This is, by far, my favorite picture of all time on the Sartorialist. Sublime. On my blog I captured an incredible looking woman on a bicycle stopped at an intersection, but this is phenomenal.
http://www.chicagostreetstyle.com
This is also why biking is good for my heart!
gosh. i have legs like this. i thought they were chunky. maybe i should wear short skirts while riding my bike, too. lovely colour hair and legs.
That is why I love bikes
Yum. I'm coming back as a bike.
Oh my! I have leg envy!
I love bike pics and this one is no exception BUT even though helmets are bot that stylish it bothers me that no one in these bikey pics is ever wearing one. Here's my challenge: can you find someone on a bike IN a helmet who looks great? I've seen some bikers in equestrienne helmets and that was pretty cool...
nice capture
She needs to be careful... might cause a few car accidents :P
Makes me want to ride my bike to work now. :)
Lovely, Lovely!
it's such a refreshing image! love the moment! beautiful capture in the busy city!
The picture is really adorable. I am agree with this article too, cycling is the best exercise ever. Keep posting such insuperable article..
The same as me :)
Like buddah!
lovely legs, amazing hair, cute purse! I love this overall!
Well, someone knows that she has great legs ;)
Though this does make me miss old NY/downtown where only the bike messengers and chinese food delivery bikes were brave enough to pedal around town. The city is too soft and gentrified. She looks suburban.
She's one of the many reasons that I ride my bike everywhere!
I love Summer fashions. Beautiful legs shown by beautiful ladies.
Yea! Strong and sexy! Reading comments from readers who thought their own strong legs were "big" or "chunky" makes me sad, though... honestly, how could powerful, well-defined, well-proportioned, sculpted muscles be seen as anything but beautiful?
such good looking legs! preeeeeeetty woman!
I didn't realize how much one beautiful photo (and reading people's comments on it) could so drastically boost my self-confidence. I have legs like this woman and always envied those girls with skinny legs...I guess I needed to see them on someone else to realize they're beautiful and strong!!
I want to hang this picture in my room.
Biking about 15 kms (also uphill) in Budapest, now for more than 4 months every day, I can tell you, it does change muscle tone. When I rode just once in a while, there was no change, doing it regularly, it made a big difference.
Great picture though, I totally agree.
I also love guys on bikes, those great calves standing up on their bikes.
this is why I hate living in Amsterdam... =) all the girls have fantastic legs.... =)
her hair shines lovely, like the bike
It's heaven in a frame. Un-be-lie-va-bly great picture. Could be an ad for the shoes, the bike, the skirt, the purse, New York or just the divinity of women.
Perfect shape indeed, very retro pin-up. She could go on the side of a WW2 fighter plane exactly as she is in the picture. Nice to see a woman not looking like she's made of broomsticks in a fashion picture.
Where is her helmet? Nothing looks worse than a city cyclist riding without one? Great legs won't save your ass in a crash......
I want those legs!!...and I also love the Zadig & Voltaire store in the back ;)
She is gorgeous and her legs look athletic, but I'm pretty sure her legs aren't as "big" as everyone is suggesting. Don't foreget, photos make a people look heavier than they really are, so in real life I'm pretty sure her legs are quite slender. I love her hair.
Fabulous!!!
nice picture, I absolutely love cycling!
And now I feel guilty that my bike is rotting away in my basement.
I guess I am getting old. I keep worrying that she is going to lose that shoe.
Best. Legs. Ever. Great photo, and it's definitely encouraging me to get on my bike tonight.
Beautiful capture...:)
Those legs definitely aren't "big" as everyone keeps saying. They are muscular, yes, but she has a teeny frame.
Gorgeous pic though.
sexy legs, i love too....
bestsexymodel
I never got the whole superskinny leg-thing. Legs like that just looks like they're gonna snap any minute. These legs however... Doing pointe work does the trick too;)
Love the composition... and the awesome legs... that capture most of the attention, keeping us from enjoying the simplicity of the combination of basic colours.
