Judging from this photo, I have to say that Obama is probably the racist and evil older brother to Steve Urkel.

No he doesn’t. With that helmet he looks like a little puss. He looks like he is ready for a gay pride parade, and who dresses him anyway ?

Barry should of tucked in his Jeans at the ankles, that is an accident waiting ot happen... denim caught in the gears of the bike. He should at least have a clip on his pants legs.

Even though I am not a bike rider I can find at least half a dozen things wrong with this picture, not to mention I HATE people who tow their kids behind their bike. It is far to easy for a car to jump a curb and crush your child.

I showed it to my kids. They thought he looked like a typical suburbanite, so I guess their parents look similarly silly . . . Interestingly, they didn't recognize Obama. They thought it was just some white guy.

To my eye he looks a bit silly, mostly because the bike doesn't fit him. It looks like he borrowed one for a photo-op, trying to look like a typical American. His posture doesn't look athletic at all. He'd be a bit more believable if he were riding with a kid seat attached to the back of his bike. Then the apparent caution and slow pace would seem appropriate. For a single guy riding alone, it just looks geeky.

He also doesn't look right in jeans. Obama doesn't look like the sort of guy who comes home and puts on a pair of comfy, broken-in jeans. His jeans look like they're ironed and kept on a hanger until he needs to pull them out to look like a regular guy for the cameras.

One would think Super Cleese could repair his own bike.

Besides, I heard he preferred to walk.
