More naked fun on bicycles
Days after writing about a naked protest ride in New York City somewhat thwarted by the East Coast blizzard, The Associated Press offers up another little gem about cyclists who wanted to make a statement.
Police picked up two naked men on a late-night bike ride in a New Zealand town but let them off with a warning: Put on helmets.
"They were wanting to experience total freedom," said Senior Constable Cathy Duder, who stopped the pair about 10 p.m. on a recent night in the beach resort town of Whangamata. The AP reported that she told them,: "You may experience total confinement. You should head home and get helmets."
The officer didn't see the men again, so it's not known how much "total freedom" they actually experienced.Labels: bicycle rides
