Vladimir Putin and the Russian Answer to Sturgis

It is no secret that I find Vladimir Putin hot. Russia’s best pinup just keeps upping the ante like an 80’s action movie supervillain.

According to Russia Today, the city of Sevastopol hosts a yearly motorcycle rally to coincide with the anniversary of Russia’s, uhm, victory over the Nazis. (WWII buffs may feel free to interject their opinions about who really “won” that war, but that is really a digression.) This year is the 65th anniversary of the end of WWII for Russia and the 14th annual Sevastopol biker event.

This year, Vladimir Putin rode with the bikers. He rode with them, on a Harley Davidson trike, to commemorate the first road which traverses the entire country east to west. From the video, it doesn’t look like a heck of a superhighway, but, damn, Putin looks fine. That scene really would not have looked out of place in The Expendables.
