Friday Funny: Celebrities on Invisible Bikes
Exploiting America's enduring fascination with fame and growing proclivity for cycling, a group on the social news and entertainment website Reddit has melded the two with one humorous twist - they've made the bikes invisible.
"While entertainment magazines try to sell the 'Celebrities are just like us—they shop, they eat, they even ride bikes!' headline to consumers, redditors look past one common quality of stars in a thread aptly titled Invisible Bicycles," posts blogger Pinar on the website My Modern Met.
"Unlike the rest of us, these famous figures don't need to pedal any tangible vehicle as they seemingly float through the air."
