SATURDAY: Air in tires? Check. Helmet? Check. Spandex biking shorts...?

Ditch the shorts. This Saturday scores of bicyclists will be leaving the lycra at home and pedaling in their birthday suits as they participate in the 4th annual World Naked Bike Ride.

Part of a grass roots movement to raise oil-dependency awareness, the worldwide event will take place in the District at 4 p.m. sharp at the Vermont Avenue side of the White House. The band of flesh baring pedal pushers will then take a casual one mile spin around the city, hitting such sites as the Capitol Building and the Washington Monument.

How can one ride through the streets of D.C. nude you ask? Well according to the 1986 court case Duvallon v. District of Columbia, as long as your bare essentials are covered there's no foul. So men grab your tube socks and women put on your pasties, get some fresh air and good clean aerobic exercise this Saturday. Just be careful not to get any thing pinched in your spokes.
