'Nude isn't lewd': World Naked Bike Ride returns to Madison this June

The 12-mile ride is a protest against oil dependency — and a statement that every body has a place in public.

MADISON, Wis. -- Whether you love it, hate it or just tolerate it, the World Naked Bike Ride will return to Madison later this month.

Organizers said the ride will begin at 11 a.m. on June 20. Madison is one of dozens of cities holding a ride worldwide. Organizers expect 160-200 people to join this year's event.

The annual ride serves as a protest against oil dependency as well as a celebration of nature and body positivity.

You don't have to take your clothes off to join the ride. Organizers have implemented a lonstanding "go as bare as you dare" policy. Participants are only asked to be courteous and not judge other riders.

While it's a naked bike ride, bikes are also not a must-have. Participants can join in using any for of human-powered transport, provided they respect other riders, follow traffic rules and hold to the spirit of the event.

Registered participants will be told the gathering point for the ride at least one day advance. The route will not be publicized, by organizers will announce a designated viewing area at a later date.

Yeah. Sure.

Judging others by their looks is the most human thing about these guys.

As for the gals, women never judge another's looks, and are always courteous to others. Or so I have heard.

Guess they didn’t give much thought on how much oil it took to male the bikes?.

Gross. If there’s an activity which really calls for clothing it’s biking.

Aw, heck. I was going to participate - naked, of course - in my truck (shown below).
But now I’m staying home. Their loss.

If their bicycles don’t have rusted chains, dry bearings, and tire-less wheels, then they are bald-a$$ hypocrites.
