Looking good (and saving the earth) on your bike

I’ve been sharing my journey into alternative transportation over at A Green Spell, and have bikes and scooters on the brain. After hearing the recent developments of the massive oil spill in the Gulf, I am trying to avoid using my car unless I need to travel more than 15 miles, round trip (though I may be able to raise that figure, as I get stronger).

I’ve recently noticed lots of pictures of celebrities on bikes and scooters, lately, and thought I would share them to show that you can still look good and be green! (But please wear a helmet!)

Bill and Sookie (oops, I mean Steven Moyers and Anna Paquin) out in the sun

So forget the car this summer, and keep the Gulf in your thoughts and prayers. And if going green isn’t enough to convince you to walk, bike, or scoot, then consider this: It’s a guaranteed way to lose weight without altering your diet!
