World naked bike rides!
Have you participated in a world naked bike ride? Naked bike rides have occurred in major cities around the world, where permissible. So what are naked bike rides bike rides about?

You might ask why a bunch of people, mostly younger adults, would get totally or mostly nude and ride across town on their bicycles? It is supposedly a protest and statement to “protest oil dependency and celebrate the power and individuality of our bodies”. Of course any reasonable person might conclude it’s mostly about just having fun, doing something crazy and feeling something that feels like freedom in this oppressive world.
Are naked bike rides legal? That depends on laws in whatever jurisdiction the naked bike ride takes place. In some places, it’s totally legal, in others it’s legal as an organized, peaceful protest event (but someone riding a bike any other day might be arrested), and in some jurisdictions, it’s not legal at all, so therefore doesn’t happen or gets shut down fast. Some participants wear underwear or shorts anyway and in some cities they all do, to avoid arrest.
