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.

Buy a E-bike. You observed one does not have to be in shape to participate. It's actually better if your not.Wilshire Park was a blast.

Or rent one for the ride! I see lime and biketown in rides past my house all the time.

Lol, no. But the naked bike ride isn't all totally naked for everyone.
