Yep, it sure was. They rode naked to protest the pollution caused by motor vehicles. While I might not agree with their motives, I find nothing at all wrong with riding a bicycle or even walking naked in public.

You might want to give your seat a good wash afterwards.

Yes, as a matter of fact I did know that. It was on last week's news.

I'm also a bit suspicious of the random .jpg.

Anyway, I always thought the nude biking thing was just San Francisco, but I guess you never can tell. :p

In the case of this particular poster, I would not be so certain.

Heck yeah, Bike Naked Day sent naked (or naked looking) bike riders past my apartment for about 30 minutes straight. I would have joined them but my bike seat doesn't seem very comfortable without a pair of pants between us.

Er...don't sweaty body parts tend to stick to things?

Anywho, good on them. I like unique forms of protest, and other people being naked.

Wow, props to those fellas/ladies. My saddle is uncomfortable enough as it is, never mind if there was nothing between me and it. Bits sticking to other bits, getting in the way... it doesn't bear thinking about. naked hanggliding day would be more fun... if slightly chilly...


Got it! Naked zorbing day! Can you imagine that? Rolling to work in a giant plastic ball with a bucket or two of warm water sloshing around inside. Steering would be insane!
