Nude Bicyclists Protest... Global Warming?

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

The streets of Denver were thrown into chaos after a group of crazed hippies dared to ride after dark without their clothes on. While no arrests have been reported, readers of a local television station's website reacted as if the Taliban had thrown an orgy with Nazi teachers at a local elementary school.

A group of nude cyclists rode through the streets of the Mile High City on Saturday night in protest of high oil prices and global warming.

Get it? It's hot, so they had to ride the gas-free bikes naked.

Comments on the local NBC affiliate's website ranged from amused to angry to disappointed that there wasn't enough T&A:

Really? Really!? This is the best these people can do?

I really hope that people kept their kids inside, not appropriate!! They had one of these up in Boulder as well. I am all for free speech but come on!!!!!!!

I am all for global warming AND high gas prices!!! That being said, if there are any 20something hot women that want to protest, feel free to ride your bikes naked around my house. Camp out if you want! SEE IF I CARE!!!

Events like this are rarely ever pretty, unfortunately...

Urinate in public and become a sex offender. Ride a bike nude and send a message?

This creates a very unsafe situation, imagine the lawsuits for massive road rash should one of these idiots slip off their gunk soaked seats. Therefore, I propose, in the future, all seats be removed, leaving only the seat post. This will ensure they are all safely secured to their bikes. For an added level of safety, 15 inch speed bumps should be erected every 3 ft along the route. Remember; if it saves only one set of buttock skins, it's all worth it.....

looks like freaky-pervs.. we need to lock these weirdo's up.

both urinating in public and protesting naked are pretty stupid anyways, but if you can do one legally, why not the other
