Get On That Bike And Ride


Around Spanish cities this weekend, protesters delved back in history to update the protest of Lady Godiva. People protesting the dependence on fossil fuels took to the streets in bicycles butt-ass naked.

I don't know how comfortable nude cycling would be. I do know one thing. I would want one of those big wide banana seats that were popular in the 70's. A naked ass perched on some of the small seats popular today might be a bit to sexual on a bumpy road. And I damn sure wouldn't want one of those spring contraptions like on the bike above. It doesn't look very scrotum friendly for nude cycling.

Nothing is scrotum friendly about riding a bicycle nude.

They have special seats for scrotums. I wouldn't wanna ride nude, afraid I'd crash & burn.

Protect the 'junk' and put vaseline on the blisters.
I feel kinda bruised just reading this...

Catch said...

Keshi said...

Nude cycling? U got me all excited Fuzzy ;-)

Keshi.

Pixie said...

Eww all those hot sweaty seats afterwards...

Unknown said...

Not just unfriendly to scrotums....probably unfriendly to vaginas too. OUCH....You'd have to ride standing up to avoid chafing...

:P fuzzbox said...

angel, jr: You are most likely right.

jane: It would make for some painful road rash.

michael: The visual of putting vaseline on the blisters is interesting. I wonder if they have a support staff for that. It would make for an interesting job oppertunity.

starbender: Crazy Cool :)

ann: Anything to get naked, huh. I bet you would be the star of the parade! :)

:P fuzzbox said...

mimi: Yuch, maybe they could make a seat liner with wings.

catch: It might work best as a spectator sport.

keshi: ;)

pixie: And it might make for a new definition of making a skidmark with a bicycle.

curare: The chafing would bound to be horrendous.

Crazy Dan said...

I am not worried about the seat so much as I am about my tallywacker swinging over and getting caught in the back tire. OUCH

starbender said...

Dan U da Man.....

...Just throw it over U'r shoulder hon!
;]

Cissa Fireheart said...

UM OWWW...even from a woman's perspective, riding a bike nekkid would not be pleasant...Um, as I am sure you know, women have uh, crevices that today's bicycles would....uh, invade uncomfortably....

:P fuzzbox said...

cd: And that chain, Yeeowww.

starbender: According to your riding partner it could be used to make a girls bike a guys bike.

cissa: It just is a bad idea all the way around.

Did you ever see the episode of Seinfeld in which they covered the differences between "Good Naked" and "Bad Naked"?

Methinks any kind of naked which involves males and bicycles would fall under the category of BAD naked!

But speaking of bicycling in this Sunday's Chicago Tribune there was a rather interesting article about Chicago's plans to expand their bike network to 500 miles by 2015. I've read in the past that Chicago is the most bicycle friendly city in the United States but it still pales in comparison to certain Canadian and European cities (Montreal and Ottawa Canada are both more bicycle friendly as are cities like Geneva, Switzerland; and Copenhagen, Denmark).

Eeeeeew! Sweaty butt cracks on those seats. I hope they cleaned those seats with anti-bacterial wipes afterwards. And, I hope they cleaned those sweaty cracks too.
No thanks. Not interested in participating naked cycling. Watching it would be hilarious though.

:P fuzzbox said...

gb:I thought that you might have heard of nude cycling. I would think that it would have to involve alcohol.

perplexio: Liked the Seinfeld reference. It would also bring new meaning to the Queen song, 'Fat Bottomed Girls.' Hence the title.

jamie dawn: I would not relish the task of being the cheif seat cleaner. It might be better to just duct tape over it. :)

Jim said...

actually it was a world wide event with nude riders in most major cities -- Fuzz didn't notice because no one rides bikes in Texas, except in Austin, and everyone there is already naked anyway

:P fuzzbox said...

Cactus is rough on bike tires. Best to stick with pick up trucks and hosses in this neck of the woods. In all actuality an old friend of the family just down the road competed in the Tour de France a few years ago. And isn't Lance Texan? ;)

Big Pissy said...

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!

What genius thought that up?!?!?

dragonflyfilly said...

....and imagine when you went to sell your bike and the perspective buyer wanted to know why the saddle looked ....well, you are so right big pissy EWEEEEEE to that!
