Celebrities often try to have a relaxing day once in a while being incognito. I wouldn’t call it a “disguise” but sunglasses and a floppy hat can help quite a bit. Sometimes they are caught on an ebike, so here’s a list we compiled to show that there is a growing awareness of ebikes.
1.
Simon Cowell is well-known British music producer. He was a host and judge of the TV show “American Idol” and also more recently “America’s Got Talent”. Due to his work in the American entertainment industry, one of his homes is in Santa Monica, near the beach. In August of 2020, he injured his back badly (requiring surgery), when he crashed his powerful and expensive Swind EB-01 ebike.
2.
Arnold Schwarzenegger needs no introduction, since he is world-famous. Bodybuilding champion, global action movie star, and Governor of California. He has been seen on many different ebikes, riding near the beach in southern California.

3.
Martha Stewart built up a 100-million dollar publishing empire about cooking and crafting on her own. She was accused of getting inside stock tips, and because she refused to take a deal and snitch, the feds threw the book at her. She did time as a felon in a federal prison, but she’s out now. One of the funniest developments is her current friendship with Snoop Dogg, so I wonder if she’s tried any new brownie recipes?

4.
William Shatner became famous as Captain Kirk on the TV show “Star Trek”. He also did a great job as Denny Crane on “Boston Legal”. He is a spokesman for Pedego ebikes, and there are dozens of pics available of him riding different models.

5.
Jay Leno was the host of “The Tonight Show” for over 16 years, and he now has a youtube channel about his passion for cars and motorcycles, called “Jay Leno’s Garage”. Here is a link to his review of Vintage Electric Cruisers, and here is his review of the Lightning electric motorcycle, below.

6.
Leonardo DiCaprio is a famous actor who has been seen on a variety of ebikes, including a Stromer ST1.
7.
Harrison Ford played Han Solo in the Star Wars franchise, along with Indiana Jones in the “Raiders of the Lost Ark” trilogy. He is an experienced aircraft pilot.

8.
Gene Hackman has been in too many movies to list, and he is one of my favorites. If you can only see three of his movies, I recommend “The French Connection”, plus “Enemy of the State” and also “Unforgiven”.

9.
Jason Momoa played Khal Drogo, the Dothraki king in “Game of Thrones”. The eighth season was a disappointment, but Jasons workout routine never disappoints. Schwarzenegger and Momoa both like fun fat ebikes, even after pedal-only bicyclists keep claiming that only the weak use ebikes.
10. Prince Charles‘ only job is to wake up each morning and check the newspaper to see if his mom has died. He is shown below at a fundraiser for green causes. Sadly, the UK has a power limit of 250W…
11. Everybody loves Brad Garret, the extra-tall TV star and stand-up comedian.
12. Ryan Reynolds plays my favorite super hero, Deadpool…like Clark Kent, his disguise includes glasses.
13. Miley Cyrus is a wildly successful singer/songwriter, but she is probably more famous for outrageous publicity antics.
14. Richard Branson became famous when he started Virgin Records. He went on to start Virgin Airlines, and now that he’s a billionaire he’s funding Space Ship-1 to provide space-tourism to the wealthy, and also carry micro communications satellites.
15. Nick Nolte is another actor who has been in too many films to list. Check him out with Eddie Murphy in “48 hrs”, and also as a treasure-hunting diver in “The Deep”, along with “Down and out in Beverly Hills”
16. Darryl Hannah Became famous as the mermaid with Tom Hanks in “Splash”. She was an android in “Blade Runner” with Harrison Ford and also a one-eyed assassin in “Kill Bill, Vol 2” with Uma Thurman. She dated John F Kennedy Jr, and is currently married to singer/songwriter Neil Young.
17 and 18, Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom
It may be hard to see, but trust me, this is Singer Katy Perry, and actor Orlando Bloom. They are both riding Specialized brand ebikes.
19. Justin Bieber
Since ebikes are catching on with the rich and famous, stop by this article once every few months to see who’s been added…
20. Jennifer Lawrence
Mega-star actress Jen sometimes tries to cruise around incognito, but paparazzi caught her in Canada with an Ohm ebike, using a BionX rear hubmotor. Sadly, BionX is no longer in business, but their existing ebikes should last customers a very long time.
