Damn it! Riff Raff is way cooler. Is the the third or fourth time this week that the Raleigh Crew have been out this week. Apparently they went for four and a half hours UP the Malibu Mountains in a 90 degree heat. Am I missing something here? Is that actually any fun at all? Now, coming down the mountain - that might be an experience.Right, I'm bored of bike pictures now. I'm not posting any more unless it's a shot of Matthew MaCoganaggyninny dismounting face first or Richard O'Brien showing up in fishnets and stillettos. Or Jake showing up in fishnets and stillettos.

Hell four and a half hours! Why not go to the beach Jake! Or sit in the sun drinking cocktails??
That third picture is a new element in these bike pics,don't ya think?Old Jake: beard, shades,helmet,grumpy(sometimes). New Jake:shaven (God,have mercy), helmet HAIR(more mercy please) and big blue eyes (where is that mercy??)! I should also mention the kind of smile I haven't seen for a while..
You know, I have to admit this - the bike pictures overall do nowt for me. THERE I'VE SAID IT. Is there something seriously wrong with me? What's happened? Have I run out of Gyllylove? I'm thinking of posting in the Agony Pussy column asking for advice.
OH. MY. GOD. that second pic!! *faints*
Jesus he's hot!! (Literally... lol)
Oh, these are SO different from the other bike pictures. He SHAVED! It's like Christmas and my birthday rolled up into one while choirs of angels sing!
I'm listening to that Grace Jones song at the moment and seriously thinking of adding it to the page. It's making me chair dance!
It's great, isn't it? I'm forever indebted to the online non-Jake-related 'friend' who and sent it to me.
I'm listening to yesterday's Elaine Page R2 programme! We have just kicked off with a Charleston from Bugsy Malone - I'm goinna start dancing soon too...
Where can i find the Grace Jones number?? OT sorry!
NRM, I uploaded it here for people to download - it should still be working.

Yes mrs dalloway, that Jake in the third picture is the Jake we all like to remember so well..! No beard makes him look years younger.
And it's nice to see that kind of smile again.
I (penny lane) also wanted to say before I hit the wrong key on my computer, that that bald guy is the same guy that was in the biking pictures from May I think.
The Grace Jones song is slowly becoming my theme song!God! I'll drive everyone mad singing it..and my voice isn't exactly sparklin'..lol
Ok,I'll be off for a few days..not bike riding..although Jake can be quite inspiring..but I know my lungs..they're not for that kind of exposure :)
Be good and keep an eye on The Sex..he's very adventurous,I see.I'll drink for all of you,I promiss!:-D
Okay sorry i wa sbeing a little thick!
yeah, I am with you that I'm a bit tired of the bike spandex look (*gasp*), but I think the re-surfacing of his clean-shaven look make up a lot for the repeat use of spandex... I am left speechless and tongue hanging out with that 2nd pic - did Jack think that GQ has sent a cameraman too?
I'm disturbed by how much I like Jake's black, fingerless gloves. And the way he sweeps his sweaty hair back from his forehead, with the same gesture he used during the Vanity Fair video shoot. Like others here, I'm so happy to see his clean-shaven face. (And also pleased that he genuinely grins like a nice guy in the third picture -- to me, he looks far less cocky & self-satisfied than the overly tanned Matthew, who smirks for the cameras with a straw clenched between his blindingly bleached-white teeth. In that picture, Matthew's all that Jake is **not**, thank goodness.)
Beautiful eyes--we can see them! Clean shaven (YES!!). Dazzling smile--what it does to me! Adventurer. Inspiring. Loving these pics. The fact that he has so much energy and stamina is even more of a turn-on, so keep showing me biking, skateboarding, surfing, basketball, baseball, running, workout, chinbar pictures. Just continuously reminds me how full of life our Jake really is.
I just hope this new friendship of his doesn't mean he is becoming a super huge gigantic pot head like Matty. I couldn't handle hearing news reports of Jake being arrested for playing nude bongos with Matt in the wee hours of the morning.
I don't mind them bike riding together, but I'm not excited about Jakey being BF with Matthew. Matthew doesn't wear deodarant. Matthew is manic and crazy. Matthew is a drunk and a whoknowswhatelse. And he has "issues" dealing with women. And he's from Texas...which isn't all good. And Seriously, I think Matthew finds it useful to hang around Jakey. They would never have gotten the attention if it hadn't been for Beautiful Jake!
Jake is lookin' mighty beautiful in that second picture. I, too, love him all clean shaven.
While I could admire Jake's booty in spandex all day long, some jeans or cargo shorts and a plain old t-shirt wouldn't kill me.
All this endless biking! Jacob, I'm exhausted just looking at you!
Is all this bike riding for fun or for charity or what?
Is all this bike riding for fun or for charity or what?
My guess is, it's probably for fun -- but the idea that the ESPYS will be coming on soon hosted by Lance with Jake as presenter may play a small role in it ;-)
Plus it's good for Matt to be seen with Jake. Apparently it's getting him press.
^ ^ ^ ^
This picture offers such a close-up, I can see where the sweat has soaked into Jake's hairline. Thank goodness, all his beauty marks are exactly where they ought to be. I wasn't sure what might be happening underneath all that sprouting facial hair. (Like, maybe the moles would be rearranging themselves into another constellation?)
Matthew's teeth really are blinding, aren't they? They are practically fluorescent. Like the overhead lighting in my office.
I couldn't handle hearing news reports of Jake being arrested for playing nude bongos with Matt in the wee hours of the morning.
Oooo, I could SO deal with that! *lurks in shadows around Matt's house, hoping to peek in windows*
^^^ Hee.
I like Jake sweaty like that second pic. But I think the image of fishnets and stilettos is ruining my fantasy... ;-)
The mere idea of Beautiful Jake all sweaty, sort of drained and mellowed out from his bike ride, his hair plastered down on his head, that incredible body all toned and taught is enough to send me totally over the edge! The fact that we have pictures of this phenomenon is almost too much to bear! What sweet affliction has invaded my senses! Oyvay!
I had a dream. And in the dream, I was spandex...
Yes nice but we need more then bike pics.But if that is all that is on offer.I'll take it!
OT:

Jake is listed at #2!!
I miss the beard must admit.Maybe it was hot.Cycling in 90 degrees for hours on end.Where does he get the energy.Must be superfit.It's making him too skinny though.
Love the damp hair.It's so gorgeous and glossy.Yum!
I hope (and think) that Jake has more class than that.
anon 9:19, he is looking quite skinny. i couldn't decide if it was just my imagination. i like what it does to his legs and jawline, though, yum. i try not to think how cut he must be under those clothes. my brain can't take it. :)
Jake is 25, got the life of Reilly, and living it to the fullest--I am happy for him--he deserves all th fun he can find!
Jake doesn't strike me as the clubbing type-of-guy.
Suits me just fine! :-D
Pap video from the lates biking pics. One that isn't painful to watch, for once... I love how Matthew Mc got the paps to pay for their lunch...
http://us.video.aol.com/video.index.adp?mode=1&pmmsid=1675450
I totally agree Jake does seem to be getting a tad too thin. I mean he's on the verge of being too thin, but not quite. And while I totally love him clean shaven, I love him scruffed even more. I don't mind him with a beard either. Actually whatever Jakey wants is fine with me. But, Jakey, sweet thing, please. Eat something.
I'm not surprised Jake wasn't out clubbing with Matt and Lance. I think a little bit of Matt goes a long way. And both Matt and Lance know their chances of picking up girls increases without Jake. I'm sure Jake was have a very good time on his own...(PLz, Oh Higher Power! Please, if not me...then Natalie!)
H O T.
In the last picture he's so cute *Thud*

heehee. Well said. Matthew M annoys me –he comes off as a tad too full of himself, which is ironic, considering he could have cycled himself to death along the highways of Malibu and would not have been photographed if not for Jake. Jake, please remain your sweet self and never let it get to your head. BTW, Jake is not thin, he looks FIT and natural. Please never work yourself to Matthew’s size – his bulky arms and legs scare me!
I know i am going to sound a dumb ass,but what does BFF stand for?
I keep seeing it mentioned but i have no clue what it means?Help?*Pretty Please*
He isn't too thin for me, I think he looks perfect now ...
Never fear, Wtbgirl. I don't think that Jake will start wearing bandannas tied around his forehead, like his new bongo-playing friend Matt -- because our Jake's hairline isn't receding. He's got years of use still ahead of him for that thick, gorgeous mane. As we all know, one of the many things that Jake appears to be good at is growing amazing crops of hair -- facial, body, head, you name it -- even in a very short period of time. Matt only wishes he were genetically gifted in that way.
@11:21 BFF= Best friends forever
I was over at IHJ. My god he IS the sex ;)
Anon 11:15 said: Please never work yourself to Matthew’s size – his bulky arms and legs scare me!
I have to agree with you there. He's too big. Jake is perfect in my opinion. I've never liked too much muscle on a man.
They have two different sized frames....Matt is larger boned than Jake
Thanks anon 11.29 from anon 11.21 xxx
Those of you who think it's Matthew reaping the rewards of being papped with Jake, might want to think again.
Lance Armstrong has never been known for being Mr. Kind, Considerate and Charitable. Matter of fact he's known to be a bit of an opportunist and media whore. Not a whole lot of people in the sport of cycling like him. And in light of the lonnnnnnnnng article in yesterday's LA Times that perhaps he *may* have used performance enhancing substances after going on record to say categorically he did not, his image is taking a bit of a drubbing.
No, kids, I think the person who benefits the MOST out of peddling around Malibu with Jake is Mr. Armstrong himself. I wouldn't be surprised if they have the same PR firm.
@11:55 ...found in google.
Oh my god I'd forgotten how damn good Jake looks all calen shaven...woo I'm lovin it! The man is hott!!
I think some bloggers at WFT are saying that Jakey hangs out at Matt's after the biking and there are all sorts of skanky girls going in and out of Matt's at all hours. I'm concerned. Do I have to put in a formal request to get agents' surveillance for this? I mean it's one thing to go to a holiday BBQ at Matt's. But hanging around there with any frequency portends of terrible outcomes. And Matt would probably hog all the antibiotics!
Hmmmm, Jake in stillettos and fishnets... now THERE'S a visual! ;)
Personally, I love a sweaty man, so all these spandex-clad bicycling pictures are heaven for me! *fans self*
What is WFT?
WFT = What the Fu*K is This
...check google :)
No, I'm referring to Anon1:25 who wrote:
"I think some bloggers at WFT are saying that..."
What is that WFT?
WFT = Waiting for Toothy, another Jake blog. There's a link from JW if you click on "Links" in the sidebar and scroll down.
Thanks!
stupidmansuit, Jake isn't in that video. It is some other guy sitting next to Matthew. Jake wasn't riding with Lance or Matt that day.

Oops, my bad, Jake is in that pap video! Very funny, lol!
Anon 3:58 PM
On the TMZ video you can hear Jake say "Thanks so much" to the paps after he gets his food. He has such nice manners!
Poor baby. He looks all hot and sweaty and hungry and exhausted. So. Are we to assume that after he hydrated and ate something he went home and just crashed? He must have been weary! And Lance and Matt went out clubbin' while Jake took a hot bath and went to bed so he could get his beauty sleep. Right. We never seem to see/hear much at all about Jake's evenings.
An occasional dinner with friends. A sighting at a concert. Otherwise Jakey goes deep underground. He just evporates in a puff of smoke!
I actually like the bikathon because I was getting tired of Jake just getting smoothies and coffee. I envied his life of leisure but the bike pics shook it up again. I like Mathew McG. I like his sexy drawl and the fact that he's a lunatic and it pleases me to think of Jake and him hanging out. They look so hot together especially whith the twin huge grins. So sexy.
Oh wait! Didn't nobody tel mama 'bout no skanks coming out at all hours. Maybe I should reevaluate my position on those boys getting friendly.
It is evident from that video that this biking bollocks is mostly a ploy from Matty and Lance to suck up media spotlight by hanging out with Jake. Matt looks positively delighted at the attention he's getting! I hope Jake's in on it - I'd hate to think of him being taken for a sucker.
No, Katie, you're so right, they don't. There's a grabbing meanness, a cheap arrogance about them. I have been getting bad vibes about this whole thing from the beginning. Tsk tsk tsk.
If this isn't PR for Lance or Matt then I don't know what is. This isn't a good move. Of all the completely and totally random pairings -- wow.
And if that guy's report over on iheartjake.com's encounter's section of a run through of the EPSYS is true ... having Lance make a joke about his "good friend Jake" sitting up front ... since he likes to sit in the rear ... is true, making fun of Brokeback Mountain is just a bad, bad, bad move. Especially since they're supposed to do an angle on Jake laughing about it.
I'm a little digusted, and I didn't even like the movie.
He's so much younger than they are, and doesn't seem to have anything in common with them. I mean, they're non-too-bright Texas jocks and he's a NY/LA ACLU member. It makes him look like the little boy who wants to hang out with the big boy jocks, maybe because he wishes he were a big boy jock.
I feel like I'm seeing some insecurity on his part when I look at these pictures.
Maybe Jake's PR people are really invested in building up the "Jake as jock" image. The chief quadrant in the target movie audience that lacks much awareness of or interest in Jake is the young straight guys in the mainstream audience. (Jake is, of course, doing quite well with females and gay guys, as well as with the older art house audience.) And I thought the young male was seen as the most desirable demographic to target, since they are among the most reliable moviegoers. So if all the athletic stuff, like the MTV appearance, serves to increase "Jake awareness" in that quadrant, then it's all good, isn't it?
And there must be other, less strategic reasons for this biking craze. The most obvious is that Jake's getting some exercise, which is always going to be one of his needs, as long as he's into looking fit & it helps him get roles in the business. And maybe Jake's like many of us & is subject to fits of enthusiasm or brief obsessions. Biking might be his "thing" for summer 2006. Also, Jake seems like a fairly intense, serious-minded guy -- maybe he's trying to lighten up a little by hanging out with an idiot for a little while.
I agree with agent Davenport about Jake not caring about status to hang with someone. But he does look a bit like odd man out with these guys.I'm guessin' the reason for all this riding around with an entourage of paps is some connection to all three guys participating in the ESPY awards. But I find the iheartjake guy's report about Lance's comments realy in poor taste. I don't think there is one single damned thing funny about it. I think it's way past time to move on from what passes for all the BBM "humor." Hope Jake's publicists put a stop to it. Jakey made it pretty clear at MTV, that while he respects that film and honors the work, he doesn't play that! I believe Jake has been getting offers and reading scripts. I believe he is working through whatever concerns he/they have about various projects. I believe we will be hearing something about future plans very soon. And it may also include some stage work.I think Jake is actively dealing with work related stuff, bcz he is sticking pretty close to the LA/NYC routine. No trips to the North Pole lately.
If the report of Lance’s BBM joke on ESPY practice run is true (which I have a hard time imagining why the writer would fabricate such a line if it were not true), well, what can I say? Lance, Jake may be able to “help” you get some free publicity or perhaps even in shape for your marathon (if report is to be believed), but nobody can save you from being a complete arse.
Nice anon 5:14 “maybe he's trying to lighten up a little by hanging out with an idiot for a little while.”
LMAO!
Is it me, or does MM come off too chatty (and flirtatious) with the paps in the bike videos? His last line - does seem to be a bit of lead-on?
Let’s not forget the O’Brien guy though, he is normal and quite likeable….. nobody has considered him for a sidekick role yet?
Where do we think that our Jake registers on the "capable of wild, mindless hedonism" scale? Does he have a little bit of the overgrown frat boy in him, or not? Probably not as much as Matt, who looks like he just doesn't give a damn, but ...
Jake strikes me as being quick to laugh & joke, gregarious & able to energize a room full of people, but I think he's less liable to commit acts of sheer idiocy. He's still a nice Jewish boy, basically.
But then I recall watching him gyrate his hips while he's jocked up inside a furry little Santa hat, and I wonder. There's an exhibitionistic side to the boy. Maybe he's capable of partying really hard if he's egged on, if he's performing for a crowd ... I think applause & cheers from a crowd could persuade Jake to go further than he might, all on his own.
If he did, I'd like to be one of those tucking bills into his g-string, let's put it that way.
I like to think Jake is capable of a lot of wild hedonism without emitting even the merest whiff of eau de frat boy. In particular not of frat boy a la Lance and Mr Bongos.
A little off topic here but there are new pictures of jake and natalie together- here's the link: http://www.perezhilton.com/topics/jake_gyllenhaal/jake_natalie_reunited_20060711.php#comments
I think Jake wants to be seen as a "regular guy" and he's still young enuf to have his heros. For exam: I think he really idolizes George Clooney. And that's OK. I also think he admires the crap out of Lance Armstrong. And hanging out with fratboy Matt is cool...up to a point. But I have absolute confidence in Jakey. Jakey knows who he is, what/who he likes to spend time with and, unlike some of you, I don't think he's really shy. I think he's an outgoing person who enjoys schmoozing. But he also has a very private side. I think he is a bit of an exhibitionist. But just a bit. I don't like Matthew. Yes he has very bad manners, but more than that, he seems like a real operator. And Jake is the type who probably would have gone back later and gave those guys the $30. Jake has class. Matt won't 'rub off' on Jake. Unfortunately Jake won't rub off on Matt either. And after all this, maybe Jake's "hero" Lance" will prove to be a bit more human, too. And it's all good!
