A weekend nude bicycle ride in Vancouver, B.C. - a city that makes Seattle look conservative - resulted in the arrest of a naked dad who disrobed his 3-year-old son, despite promises to police to keep the minor clothed. Cyclists taking part in the ride were split on the dad's decision to have his boy ride in the buff, as are people involved with the Seattle World Naked Bike Ride group, according to the Biking Bis blog. Speaking of, if you're looking for an excuse to ride in the buff, the Seattle group is planning their next ride for the weekend of Sept. 6-7.

Ah, I love stories like this that makes Bike riders even more ridiculous than they already are!

Dennis, what exactly is it about bike riders that you think is so ridiculous? These people ride nude to symbolize how naked cyclists are surrounded by cars, and how dangerous the roads are because of drivers (like you?) that don't give them safe space. They deserve to be safe. Is that ridiculous?
By the way--I don't support what this guy did. It was clearly completely inappropriate to expose his child to a world exposing itself to his child. Sick and wrong.

He would have been fine doing it at a nudist beach tho. I personally would not do that to my kid, he does it enough by himself.

Live Free.... Ride Naked...

Vancouver cyclists are self involved goofs. They think they can ride on pleasure paths and walk ways at full speed and mow down elderly and dogs all while holding up a defence of them somehow being denied of their rights. Take a bus or the train you fools and leave the paths to who they belong too.
