Bonus points for riding into the casting call popping a wheelie and dropping down from a roof? :D


What other ways can a bicycler show command and a lack of fear?

It's got to be a lot easier to find a 50 year old actor who can pretend to ride fearlessly in traffic than to find an old cyclist who will ride fearlessly in traffic and also act. Me, I'm scared to death, always looking out for some guy about to run me down.

I sent them my info, and a video from my GoPro rolling down McKnight Road at 9:15 a couple mornings ago. Let's see if they call me.

It would take me a month to earn that much money. Any chance they'll need a mid-20s overweight female cyclist? :D

I don't own the biking gear they would want.


It's such a shame because I'm a natural movie star! (yeah. right.)

Also, if you're riding without fear, why do you need a helmet?

"Also, if you're riding without fear, why do you need a helmet?"


To protect fear from you?

maybe someone misheard them. maybe they said "fit-TEEN" instead of "fit-TY"? That would be verynice haha
