Philadelphia 2nd Annual Naked Bike Ride 2010

This past Sunday marked Philly’s 2nd Annual Naked Bike Race.

The #1 reason was to promote “fuel-conscious consumption” – with bikes lessening our city’s carbon footprint.  This city-wide trek draws attention to environmental awareness & cyclist safety.

While not every biker was naked, many were creative between strategically placed objects, paint, covers in the shape of a bicycle, and Phillies “uniforms” painted on.
