Racing shots
This is another image that enters people’s minds when you mention you are into cycling. I suppose runners have the same problem.

Partial body shots
These partial body shots usually involve toned muscles, another stereotype non-cyclists have of cyclists.

View from the rider’s seat
Naturally, cyclists want to share how things look from their point of view while cycling.

Bicycle with scenery
Last but not least, if people can take pictures of their plush toys with scenery (yes, it happens!), why can’t we take pictures of our beautiful bikes in scenic surroundings?
