Biker Babes Print E-mail

For awhile, the hiking trails at Runyon   Canyon were getting more A-list action than a sale at Kitson. But lately it seems like biking is the new hiking.

I most recently saw a pic of Geri Halliwell cruising around London —and seriously, if that’s the secret to her fab body, I’m going to be spending a lot more quality time with my beloved beach cruiser.

Some other stars who’ve been spotted on two wheels: Kate Hudson, Jake Gyllenhaal, Will Ferrell, and Paris Hilton (pre-bobblehead), to name a few. No surprise, since biking is a great calorie burner. For a 130-pound female, mountain biking can burn 500 calories in an hour. Street biking at a moderate clip can burn around 475 calories per hour, and even light pedaling—you know, the kind you do when you’re reading a book on the recumbent—can burn 240.
