THEY'RE BACK

The nude bicyclers are back. Oh my!

It seems that this new way of protesting has spread to Mexico
Mr. Mendez, arrived at the protest wearing only a pair of sneakers and a bike helmet.

He said, " This is what we have to do to get drivers to see us and respect us."

Respect? Ah, O.K. if you say so Mr. Mendez. But they'll be seen that's for sure.

This time the nude protesters are protesting for more decent conditions for bikes on the streets. He claims they need better bike paths, better lanes on the streets for bikers and some respect from car drivers.
Saturday's demonstrators also stressed that they were helping the city's severe smog problem.

They added, "We don't pollute". Good thought.

There was a picture but it wasn't a very good picture or I would have popped it up here for you. However ------

Last year I did a post on nude bikers taking to the streets in Spain. That protest was also done in June. They were protesting for ," less pollution and more room for pedestrians and bicycles.

I must say there certainly is a lot of bicylers in Spain. They had a huge turn out. They were really organized. They protested in capital Madrid and in Zaragoza, Pamplona, Barcelona and Huesca.
Some of their slogans were, "Naked against the traffic: This city is mine."

Interestin', I checked the news for that last year. Though bicycles 're already used in high certian number in Spain 'n' Italy. Though the Spanish left wing party had a hidden political issue in this.

I hope you 're doin' good. *Smiles*
God bless you.....
