So who's taking part in any events? The bike shed at work has posters up advertising the Southampton Naked Bike ride tomorrow but I think I'll be giving it a miss!

    Yes, or it might get caught on something at the start, and pull taught a couple of miles round the circuit etc etc

    Isn`t riding naked against the law? It certainly should be, looking at the photos.

    Nope. Being naked full stop is not against the law in itself, and there's police permission for this ride.

    Oh. Are you completely stark bollock naked then?

    Shame I'm double booked, otherwise I'd be lurking in the background.

    The trouble with these naked bike rides is that they are generally populated by women with knockers straddling their top tube and what appears to be a saddle with a pubic wig on.

    If it attracted even a handful of nubile dirtbags who pass the titty pencil test they'd be more popular.

    And don't even get me started on the men with saggy moobs and balls sacks like chicken's necks.

    I would do this except two problems.

    1) I don't like the idea of being naked in public, too many eyes.

    2) International laws against it, something akin to too much of my flesh being seen is either considered a crime against humanity or animal cruelty (PETA thinks I am wearing a fur coat when I am topless for example)

    Now disturbing mental images should be shared to you all WHAHAHAHA.

    What bothers me is that in this thread only dudes seem to be going....

    A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game

    It was about 60-40 men-women in Southampton last year. A bloke doesn't have quite the same level of vulnerability as a woman in this situation, IMO. That said, I rode with three female friends last year.
