Portlander's are weird, yes, but you can't say they are not enthusiastic!

This Saturday is the umpteenth annual World Naked Bike Ride! Heralded as the world's largest naked bike ride (is that an honor?!?) the event is part of Portland's three week long celebration of bike culture called Pedalpalooza.

The event has grown to (weather dependent) over 8,000 naked, half naked and costumed riders pedaling their way through downtown Portland after dark. This year the event is starting at the Portland Art Museum where admission to it's current event, Cyclepedia, is $1 per article of clothing!
