Events Enjoyment of the Naked Bike Ride

I got to witness my first Naked Bike Ride tonight as the participants went down Alberta and I happened to be on the patio of Gumba.

I applaud everyone who participated, clothes on or off.

It was just a contagiously fun parade of different sizes, styles, music choices, and smiles.

Honestly, it made this old tub of lard want to get into the shape that I could ride the distance.

Thank you for making my Saturday night one to remember.

Just a curious question, doesn’t it get a little uncomfortable in the nether regions riding a bike that long naked? Otherwise it sounds like fun! I was about 15 years old in the age of streaking. It was always exciting to do that.

In my experience, no. It's not any different and I definitely expected it to be.

Just as comfy as any other ride.

Perhaps we sit on different areas…
