运动休闲－酷爱自行车的总统小布什北京过把瘾（在线收听）
11月20日下午2点多，59岁的布什头戴红色自行车头盔、身着黑色上衣，配以深蓝色短裤出现在北京西部老山的2008年奥运会山地车赛场，酷爱自行车运动的布什，在这里骑一把山地车……US President George W. Bush rides his mountain bike at the Laoshan Olympic Mountain Bike Course in Beijing Sunday on November 20, 2005.
No matter where he goes, or how far, US President George W. Bush's passion for cycling always travels with him and so does his fancy mountain bike.
Trading in his shirt and tie for a black windbreaker and a pair of purple shorts, Bush, 59, looked fresh and energetic as he took advantage of the sunny weather to enjoy one of his favourite pastimes.
"How do you say, 'take it easy on the old man'?" Bush joked when the group posed for the pictures. He then quickly got on his bike and was ready to start the journey.
Bush's bike is one of the best and worth more than US$3,000, according to reports.
