The Victoria's Secret Angel bared her toned midriff in a crop top, white pedal pusher leggings, and athletic trainers.

Pulling her hair back into a ponytail the supermodel wore dark sunglasses but kept her arms bare - wearing only a helmet as protection during the dangerous ride. 

Her riding companion was equally daring in basketball shorts, sneakers and a simple black vest.

On the night, the stunner said: 'It's the first time I have character instead of playing myself. I am learning everything as I go. I do not consider myself an actress, I model and I'm trying something new.'

It was recently revealed that as a Victoria's Secret Angel, Alessandra will be returning to New York this year for a special 20th anniversary event.

On Wednesday People reported that the much-loved lingerie brand Victoria's Secret is set to bring the show back to New York, where the first ever Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show took place, for the fifteenth time.

Victoria’s Secret veterans Adriana Lima, Behati Prinsloo and of course, Alessandra, are all expected to walk in the show, which debuted in 1995.
