Naked Bike Riders Scared Off By A Little Wet Weather

The World Naked Bike Ride that was all set to take place yesterday, was postponed due to the rain. The ride is being rescheduled for sometime in July, but until that special day, here are some shots of the riders who showed up briefly yesterday. While you look at them you can ponder why the World Wet T-Shirt Bike Ride organizers didn't seize the opportunity.

I participated last year, and there DEFINITELY were a bunch of cute women, I didn't even show up this year due to threat of rain.

I can understand why this would be the case - it was only 64 degrees. I actually did walk out to photograph it for myself, but was surprised at the low turnout. (I did not actually bike, of course.)

I feel bad for all those bicycle seats.

These people are mentally ill.

Rob T Firefly

You have sympathetic feelings for bicycle parts and they are mentally ill?

That is the most unfuckable group of people I've ever seen.

Maybe Wiener can join the make-up date.

What a bunch of pussies. A little rain and the exhibitionists stay home? What's this city come to? FWIW There isn't a person there I'd like to see naked anyway. And naked doesn't mean in shorts and/or sports bra. Lame.

Rain and unseasonably cool weather.

@Rocknrope:disqus, NO, NO, and NO!

Rain, bicycles, and bare skin. Can all add up to a miserable day of nursing road rash.

That hipster is a little too old and too doughy to be out in public like that.
Please, cover up, stay home, and act your age.

No, grow the fuck up.

It's hard to be certain because there are only a few pictures, but it looks to me as if the event was the biggest sausage party this side of the Krakow Kielbasa Festival.

Let's be real. These kinds of events are always sausage fests. Cute girls do not as a rule participate. "Bbbut what about the pics?" people ask. Those handful of cute girl pics are IT for the entire event. For every cute chick there's an entire football team worth of pale hipster sausage. I speak from (bitter) personal experience.
