soeone missed the point of this story i think

Um, someone missed the point here (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=573&ncid=573&e=1&u=/nm/20040603/od_nm/odd_dutch_bike_dc).

The real story is that people are biking nude..does that sound uncomfortable to anyone else? and how about dangerous, you know with all these people falling off their bikes these days...the last thing I would want to do naked would be go biking. wait I take that back I just had a much worse thought.

but still it's not on the list of things I would want to do nude.

Wouldn't it suck to be stuck behind some really hairy guy?

Yeah but they're from the church...what did you expect?

MT, The church people are not riding nude. The other bikers are...So your comment made no sense. =\

No no, the Church of Nude Cycling.

i don't know if anyone here has ever ran without the proper support.... but let me tell you, you want the restrictive undergarments when you're running/biking. this is going to be one long and uncomfortable ride for all the men. their only hope will be to use some vasoline or something like they do in marathons beforehand and hope they are hot and bothered enough by following someone hot that they don't notice.

all i was saying is that sounds like a terrible idea...although generally i think nakedness amoung a very specific subset is to be encouraged (namely college aged women of the appropriate proportions), i think is a bad way to encourage it.

and it also makes me think of that song by Queen. "Bicycle Race (http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Bicycle-Race-lyrics-Queen/5143FBFDE0AA6AB44825689400022B7A)"

Would it still count as nude-biking if they wore helmets and elbow/knee pads?

Ahh, so typical of the religious right...

The title says "Churchmen upset over nude cyclists". So it does make sense. Think about it, my friend.

I'm pretty sure I can find some atheists out there who would object to 300 pound men "flapping in the breeze" in their neighborhood. :D

[mouschi]

I just hope they throw out the bike seats after the race.

Preferably burn them.

i ride my bike daily on the sidewalks of downtown des moines. infact, its my job. people are always giving me money to buy clothes. last years salary was $57,000.

[Conan_the_Destroyer]

No no, the Church of Nude Cycling.
Where can we sign up for that religion?:lol:

Yes,

but let me tell you, you want the restrictive undergarments when you're running/biking.
yes,

this is going to be one long and uncomfortable ride for all the men.
and yes!!! Try a 12-mile ruck-run in the Arizona summer sun. And wearing the wrong t-shirt can make your nipples bleed.

(for those of you who don't know, a ruck-run is generally like a jogging military road march, wearing 35-80 lb backpacks and Load-Bearing Equipment, sometimes in tennis shoes but often in boots).

Not to mention the things which could get caught in the spokes. :surprise:

[liquidicem]

Sounds a little too dangerous to me, but more power to them. We need more naked people in the world!

we need more naked college aged women...but when looking at the population in general...there is a good reason people cover up.
