Participants in the ride can go as bare as they dare. Some are in their birthday suits while others sport underwear or masks.
The ride is to protest dependence on fossil fuels, advocate for the safety of cyclists on the road and promote positive body image.
Natasha Mell-Taylor participated with her husband, Jared Gruenwald, and their 3-year-old daughter, Juniper, who rode in a child seat on daddy�s bike.
