Portland being Portland

I'm disappointed by the lack of nudity in these pictures.

Based on that thumbnail, some of them don't understand the concept of nudity.

Might have been a carefully selected photo that's "safe" to publish (not my idea of safety but, you know)

I think when they did this ride it was about 45F or 7C. Sometimes partially nude is nude enough lol

Props to the guy at the front of that pack. He seems to be completely nude, judging by the transparent ponchos he had on.

I didn't think them wearing transparent ponchos breaks the principle of nudity. But some of them have underwear on. But even that is less than I would have on, so respect to them all regardless!

They have balls.

Keep Portland Weird

I am sorry but the clear rain slickers are killing me

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 5 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

They clearly have pants on.

Have you ever gotten it stuck in the chain??? You would too.

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 2 points 21 hours ago

I would too. My foreskin is as big as the whole West Riding.

No one wants to tackle naked person in the rain.

The World Naked Bike Ride (WNBR) is an international clothing-optional bike ride in which participants plan, meet and ride together en masse on human-powered transport (the vast majority on bicycles, but some on skateboards and inline skates), to "deliver a vision of a cleaner, safer, body-positive world." The largest iteration of the WNBR in the world takes place in Portland, Oregon averaging approximately 10,000 participants and thousands of spectators.
