I really want to do the Naked Bike Ride tomorrow. Not because, as some of the comments on this website have suggested, I am either weird or gay (does it really matter, though?), but because I really think the world needs to start doing something about its terrible oil habit.
If getting nekkid and cycling around the city is one way of raising awareness to that, then why not? Sounds like a giggle. There are two problems, however:
1. My brake pads are worn down to the metal after several months of haring down Carden Hill and Surrenden Road on my way back from The Argus.
2. I'm not allowed to expose my back to the sun for a while lest it becomes hypopigmented and I end up with a white ghost of my tattoo.
The solution, I suppose, is to wrap something around my waist and wear shoes so I can use my feet as brakes. Doesn't sound altogether safe though...
