Yesterday I went along with Wai Won Ching and took part in the World Naked Bike Ride around the streets of central London. http://wiki.worldnakedbikeride.org/wiki/London

It was an amazing event hundreds of cyclists taking part, I don't know the exact figure.

Before going I did not intend to totally naked, it is not compusory, but when everyone else is doing it, I thought what the hell:eek:

The start at Hyde Park was organised chaos with everyone trying to get through ranks of photograthers which seemed very weird, a bit like the red carpet at a movie premier:cool:

Once on the road, it became real fun with lots of applause and looks of amazment from motorists and pedestrians alike. There were riders from around the world and everyone I met was friendly and just having a great time for good cause.

Of course as it was the Queen's birthday, people sang happy birthday whilst going dow the Mall, but surprisingly she didn't make an appearance on the balcony:rolleyes:

I have added a few photos here that should not offend anyone. If you want to see more, I guess there will be thousands on the web by now.

To top it all the weather was just perfect.

I take my hat off to you......that was very brave :)
Whether it will do any good I don't know......possibly if it became a weekly event ? :)
I saw on the news last night about the one in exeter , I might be wrong, but they all looked young student types.....I think I would have felt VERY out of place....but good luck to everyone who took part........
Now then.....where are the real nitty gritty cyclezee piccies ???

Frankly, I don't think I'd do that, as the sight of mass panic and fainting as people were overcome with emotion at the sight of my Adonis-like body would be too much for me to bear.

I didn't realise I had a twin Dave:eek:

Apparently her Maj had to be revived after a sneaky peak through the curtains from the balcony. She must have seen me riding down the Mall towards the palace standing to attention........on the pedals:rolleyes:

Before I do this next year, they need to do something about the cobbles around Covent Garden or maybe I should do something about my saddle :confused:
