Chicks on bikes

Icicles writes that chicks on bikes is worth a few hits from search engines, so I thought I'd write about chicks on bikes.

I've never heard of putting newborn chickens on a bike, however, so I did an Internet search for "chicks on bikes."

Oh my. Almost every "chicks on bikes" website that came up is definitely not worksafe. I did find something interesting, however: Christina Schuck is a motorcycle riding photographer. She has a small photo gallery exploring women in relation to motorcyles as as something other than sex objects and props for motorcycles. She writes, "I want to take back that image and show a women's world of motorcycles. In persuing this series, I discovered an eclectic group of women who were strong, confident, defiant, inviting, reserved, tough, and feminine."

Admit it. You really thought I was going to write something different about chicks on bikes, didn't you?
