‘This is a party, but it’s also a protest’: The event, a protest that promotes bike riding as an alternative to driving cars
Naked rides were held in Manchester and Brighton, as well as Portland, Barcelona and Thessaloniki in Greece.
In Manchester, hundreds of bare bikers left All Saints Park to streak through the city streets causing onlookers to stop and stare open-mouthed, reports the Manchester Evening News. Organiser Sean Fitton said there were more than 200 participants for the 2014 event – double last year’s turnout.
“It was amazing,” he said. “There were a lot more people here so it was just huge. Nice weather certainly helped for a start.”
Despite the fact the vast majority of cyclists bared all for the ride, he said it was vary rare for anyone to take offence.
Thousands of bicyclists, many of them stark naked, poured into the streets of Portland, Oregon on Saturday night as well. “This is a party, but it’s also a protest,” said ride spokesman Carl Larson.
The rides are held in more than 75 US cities and in more than 20 other countries, but Portland’s is believed to be the largest, with more than 8,000 participants last year.

Kwa kweli utamaduni huu hatuwezi kuukubali hapa kwetu. Dunia imegeuka Sodoma na Gomorrah.
Ama kweli! Wahenga walisema, "Ukistaajabu ya Musa utaona ya firauni."
na ukiyoaona ya firauni utastaajabu wa waisrael.
si mbaya wacha tukopi na sisi utamaduni huu si kila kitu cha kizungu na majuu tunakikopi basi na hichi tukikopi si vibaya ni vizuri sana utandawazi huu tuende sambaba na wazungu tuzunguke kizungu zungu.
na kwanini wanawake wamevaa chup zao na wao si wange zivua tuu hakuna noma poa poa kila kitu
mwenye kuwa karibu nahawa jamaa awabiye wanakosema na wanawake nao wavue chupi zao pia
Mjomba kwani kabla ya Nguo tuliishi vipi? Nguo ulikuwa ni utamaduni wetu pia? Au ndiyo kusahau tulikotoka? ..tatizo letu kubwa ni kujifanya tuna maadili kuliko watu wa dunia ya magharibi:( Ni unafiki tu na kasumba. ..Abunuasi alisema ukitoka nje uchi watakushangaa siku ya Kwanza siku ya pili hawatashangaa tena kwani wameshakuzoea..Hawa wameshafikisha ujumbe wao na maisha inaendelea..bongo tukijaribu tutapelekwa Segerea kama vile kuna vitanda vitupu huko Majela:( yaani unafikiri kwa makalio kila uchao:(
kwa vikra zako mdau wa mwisho ata 4.34 pm unaona dunia ya magharibi ina maadili kuliko sisi watanzania wa nyumbani ni swali tu kama unanafasi jibu.
na la pili ni kwamba zamani tulikuwa hatuna nguo lakini tulivaa ngozi za wanyama na kama hatukuva basi tulijistiri sehemu zetu za utupu si eti kwamba tulikuwa tunatembe uchu wa mnyama na nyerere ndo alitufanya tuwe hivyo kuwa uchi wa mnyama Enzi zake hakuna nguo wachina wakatuleta kanikii.
somo la histori kidogo naona limekupiga chenga kuwa na wana magharibi wenzakao wakutoe utu wako uwe mmnaya na kutembea UTUPU NDO FURAHA YAKO HIYO
