pedal pushing / draintree/drainpipe part II

another branch of the drainpipe tree:

pedal pushers: supposedly if your pants are short and tight, they won't get tangled up in the bicycle chain. this got transferred into the world of the motorbike, here we have again sandra dee with dream lover bobby darin, i suppose early 60s --

sandra and bobby darin

but what really got the goat was mary tyler moore as laura petrie bouncing around the dick van dyke family stead with ass clingy capris
