June 10, 2006 was the date for the World Naked Bike Ride, which -- as its name suggests -- is an international political event at which protesters take off all their clothes and ride bicycles through various cities around the globe.
The focus of the protest is theoretically to encourage people to give up their "dependence on fossil fuel" -- but in practice the messages (which the organizers tell participants to paint directly on their bodies) are more scattered, ranging from "free speech" to presidential politics.
I attended the San Francisco version of the event, which started at noon in the city's Justin Herman Plaza.
Most of the photos presented below are self-explanatory (and self-parodying), so I'll keep the captions to a minimum
Holy mushroom caps Batman!
And yet it verifies something about liberal males I've long suspected.
Great for the ego! Thanks! lol
Great Doc, but trust me - never get a prostate exam from a former basketball player.
Lefty males tend to shave and show off their itty bitty wangs.
Lefty females tend NOT TO SHAVE, and like to show off their really really fat, untoned bellies and sagging "orange in a tubesock" mammaries.
Hot chicks still get (straight) male attention, even with enlightened leftists who are above looks and weight prejudices.
One thing's for certain, there will be lots of chafing.
LOL, yes, no wonder I love conservative MEN!
Riding nude is just goofy.
Riding nude while wearing a helmet is just so... liberal!
Just how cold was it in SF today? Or is this Bay shrinkage? Honestly, why anyone would want to ride a bicycle in the nude is beyond me.
Nature has really sold those poor boys short.
The one decent looking girl was sold short too . . .
Why do you think they're all libs! :D
Those pictures have convinced me to never, ever buy a used bicycle seat.
What an awful display of naked humanity.....must be the bottom 10% of physical specimens in the US. Now if we could look inside their craniums......probably only gelatin and water!
Oh man!! That's just funny beyond words, especially the last description.
I would just hate to be in that peloton when it goes down!
BTW, this isn't a good advertisement for global warming.
Lol. You can say that again. Last time I saw anything that, um, modest, was when I toweled off my 5 year old nephew after his bath.
Call me a prude if you wish.I thought I was pretty up on things, you mean to tell me you are allowed to ride naked through the streets?? What a disgusting display. What is with the crazy tourists laughing and enjoying this freak show? What about children? Too many questions.
HA! HA! HA!
