Audrey Hepburn at Paramount Studios.
"Ever see Audrey Hepburn on a bicycle? No, me neither. Catherine
Deneuve? Nope. The very notion of either of them, surely two of the
most elegant women the world has ever known, getting into the gear and
clambering on board a bike is a full-frontal assault on beauty."

Sorry; meant to say:-
Love this photo - how did cycling stop being cool?

Hmm, I'm a little disappointed with this image, as she's clearly posing - rather than genuinely using a bike.
She has got her right leg in a slightly awkward position - certainly not suitable for starting off.
But great hair!

Even if this is posed it's still a positive comment on cycling as the studio must have had their market in mind, suggesting their PR viewed cycling as a 'normal' activity.

I can't remember where I heard this, but apparently she rode a bicycle a lot!
