So it's a gay-pride parade on bikes?

People who want to ride nekkid are the very people no one wants to see nekkid.

Chaffing?

Naked Philadelphians on bikes? I'll pass.

Much like nude beaches the people you don't want to see naked are the one's that show up....

Do the bikes have seats?

you're missing the point entirely


Guil-diddly-ilty.

Biking naked for under a mile might be alright, otherwise, you will have a really sore ass.

How does "naked bike ride" equal "riding around in your underwear"?

Evil Mackerel: Do the bikes have seats?

"I hope so!"

AverageAmericanGuy: "So it's a gay-pride parade on bikes?"

Thumbing through the slideshow I thought it looked kinda like "Halloween with bikes".

Then again, Halloween *is* kinda like a pride event for heterosexuals...
So I guess we agree.

Methinks they doth protest too much.

There was not a lot of naked in those pics.

I am disappointed. If you are not going to go all out, stay home.

And yet if one really hot chick shows up, it kinda makes it all worthwhile, doesn't it?

Amen to that!

You know something is happening, but you don't know what it is. Do you, Mr. Jones?

Well, that's why I asked.

Over in three.

I don't care.

There isn't anyone I would not rather see naked.

\oh yeah, hotlinked big time.

did ya look at the pics? looks like a lot of hot young people with a handful of oldies sprinkled in. sounds pretty good to me. and seriously, people need to stop being so uptight about nudity.

Something is wrong with my brain today. When I first read the headline I thought this article about motorcycles with the fairings removed.

All of your negativity is overcompensation for being envious of anyone who's brave enough to go out in public (nearly) naked.

/also envious & terrified

Having participated in WNBR in the past there are specific reasons it is done naked and not naked at the same time. Naked is symbolizing the fact that cyclists are somewhat invisible on most public roads, so this draws attention to us, but on a deeper level riding on the same street as vehicles we may as well be naked when it comes to vehicle bicycle accidents. So combination of drawing attention to the vulnerability of cyclists co-existing with cars in the current infrastructure. The other part of not being naked is a direct result of nanny state laws, where it originated in Europe you could ride naked and not fear being a convicted sex offender. A lot of us cities even being naked in public is an instant ticket to the sex offender registry.

Why is this news? If you GIS "naked bike rider", there's a lot of people doing this.

/subby sniffin the seats again I guess.

despite the fact that the bike ride is a protest against oil and therefore protected free speech, Tulsa's Police Department has said they will arrest anyone who actually rides naked. They'll only be able to throw you in jail for a day because they won't be able to charge you with anything, but darnit they'll do it.

Fark the police.

If you have to ask what the point of anything is, you're missing the point.

Message? We don't need no stinking message. It's just stupid ass fun, like the no pants subway ride, which I've done 3 years in a row and its been a blast. Ok, sure you could just as eadily call it the AW subway ride and be just as accurate but who cares? It's all in good fun...

SockMonkeyHolocaust: This is up there with mudrunning, nautical tattoos and gentrifying neighborhoods as something that white people do to bring danger into their life. Like working and living in cubicles have crushed the hunter/gatherer out of them so they have to make up all kinds of lame, safe things to convince themselves they are human.

Some day I'll be as cool as you and know all the answers. In the meantime, stop being a racist, hipster douchbag.

This.

How does this not do horrible things to your nether-region?

i live in the mecca of d-bag cycling & i'm not terribly impressed by the naked bike ride,
but your sad trolling is just sad.

/keep forgetting that certain races are supposed to live in certain areas. thanks for reminding us all to segregate our communities!!

you've got some valid points and while it's a good observation it's also so very sad. in slowly transforming ourselves into members of polite society we have abandoned a huge amount of the primal being that we were. we are living unnatural forced lives. who gets to enjoy their primal urges? boxers, the police and the military. the rest of us are reduced to maybe having sex once in a while, making a twisted face and a few grunts. maybe we should have camps were people can go and live like cavemen for a few weeks, i don't know. i just think it's sad that we are hollow shells of what we once were, because as you pointed out, it has left people feeling empty or dead inside.

You both make valid points. I compensate by being an asshole to people. More often than not it brings a level of excitement to my life that keeps me on my toes.

Life would be oh so sweet
If I was a bicycle seat
Ride, ride little cheek
sit on me, I'm a bicycle seat

Me too. I was thinking street fighting.

Some pretty and ugly nekkid bikes just like there are pretty and ugly nekkid people.

Build up a callus?

It is rumored that a member of Kraftwerk once owned a collapsible bicycle.

You know what? I'm glad she said it, because I was thinking it. She said it, put it on the table, and you know what? It makes it that much less awkward for me

when I tell her the money's on the dresser.

Did someone actually go on record saying that? The wrongful arrest lawsuits should be most entertaining.
