Naked Cycling

13 June 2010 - Many people from all over the world consider Amsterdam a city of freedom and liberties. However, shoppers in the city were Saturday confronted with a group of about 30 naked cyclists touring the center of the city. That's new. The group - organized by the World Naked Bike Ride or WNBR - wanted to protest against increased motorized traffic in downtown Amsterdam. They choose their 'unique' way of protest to express the vulnerability of the cyclists and underline the feeling of freedom a good cyclist should feel. If I think of it, it feels rather painful though.
