The naked riders joined demonstrations that have been mostly peaceful and featured inflatable costumes.

    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!

    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.

    I’m sure the people with their houses getting raided love to receive solidarity like this.

      Why wouldn’t they? The point of the protest is to make it undeniably clear that the administration is blatantly lying and there is no war in Portland. People don’t organize naked bike rides in war zones.

        “do whatever you want to me, feds, I won’t resist”

        You can always count on democrats for a powerful message that will resonate with the downtrodden.

          This has nothing to do with Democrats, I’m not really sure why you brought that up.

            I would bet you five-hundred million dollars most of those people are shitlibs. I don’t know why this is even a quibble.

              Well, if mistermodal’s feelings say it’s true, then it must be!

              By the way, why is your account so new? Was the last one banned?

      If they are in Portland, they probably do. Portland continuing to do Portland things-- like the naked bike rides-- is very important in times like this.

      The people dressing up in silly outfits right now at protests are heroes on my book.
