Brrrrrrrrrr nope!
I can appreciate the dedication people have to do that, but I would not risk bodily harm. It's not that I don't think it is effective. There are other more productive ways I can use to promote my favorite causes, like link them on line.
*Cough cough* http://www.freerice.com/ ;o)
Coughing aside, I do wish them well.

Personally don't think I'd have the courage to BARE ALL for the public HOT OR COLD weather. I think there are other ways to prove a point; perhaps these people are just looking for an excuse to make a public display of their bare essentials.

I have to agree that a bit NO is in order for this. I'm not exactly sure how being naked will get bikers their lane back. Just like I never understood why someone going on a hunger strike should make anyone else do something (i.e. I'm going on an hunger strike until so-and-so is release from prison.) I suppose the car drivers gawking at the naked people might cause accidents, and maybe that is their purpose. But even if I felt really strongly about an issue and wanted to protest it, I don't think me being naked would be good for anyone, especially a cause that I was trying to help.

Hahahahahahahahahahahha! That is so funny!
There is no way I would join into a nude protest for anything - but especially not in the cold!
I bet they all get jail time for indecent exposure, and STILL don't get their bike lane back.
I would have loved to be a fly on the wall at the meeting where whoever thought up this hairbrained idea convinced the rest of the group to go along with it! I bet the booze was flowing freely. I wonder how many of them will chicken out?
Does this remind anyone else of the streakers in the 1970s? For those of you too young to remember, they were nude joggers. But they did it for the thrill, not to protest anything.
