The World Naked Bike Ride returns to Portland Saturday, June 23. The annual ride has thousands of Portlanders getting naked and biking around the city. The organization’s website states that the event is “an annual, worldwide bike ride that highlights the vulnerability of cyclists everywhere, and decries society’s dependence on pollution-based transport.” This year’s ride starts at 9 PM, but people will likely start gathering around 8 PM in Cathedral Park next to the St. Johns Bridge. Ride organizers do not release the route ahead of time, but it’s expected to be about six miles long. Although the bike ride is more of a protest of gas-guzzling vehicles and a a celebration of the human body, participants are encouraged to protest any cause they want. With nearly 10,000 people participating in the ride each year, it’s a little difficult to avoid spotting any naked people if you’re out on the town Saturday night.

This is so amazing! I’m so freakin proud of my LQBTQP zirs and xes (for all those cis-genders who don’t know how to properly address gender-fluid people, LEARN HOW! So you will quit offending people by calling them something they don’t identify as. Geesh. It’s 2018. Get with the social conformity program already, peeps!)

This is why I became gay. Because gays are so creative. And because chicks didn’t like my lack of masculinity. But, seriously. Only gays (gay = happy) are intelligent enough to come up with the colorful idea of riding bikes naked through a major metropolitan area in protest of oil dependency. Brilliant!

If I have one complaint, it’s with the non-White community. There just wasn’t any diversity that participated in the naked bike ride. All I saw was thousands of naked white people.

Wake up non-Whitey! Don’t you care about oil dependency, too? WTF!

Even getting the little tykes involved. This is so heartwarming, to say the least. I’m sure it’s an experience the child will always remember.

Aww. How cute! The little fella looks so happy. I just wish daddy would have put “for my child,” so the kid doesn’t feel pressured to be a male if he’s really a female trapped in a male’s body.

Such a kid-friendly event. These kids are going to understand the importance of oil dependency. And also know that it’s totally OK to ride around town naked on your bicycle in front of children. Yay!

The excitement in their eyes. A picture literally says 1,000 words. These beautiful brown children likely wouldn’t have gotten this educational experience on oil dependency if their parents hadn’t come to America.

Btw, borders are racist!

Look at the fur baby. Gays are so good about adopting animals. And feeding hungry black people. I just hope his handler isn’t crop-dusting him. jk lol

That’s cute. And very aesthetically pleasing. But where’s the political message? Remember, this is about oil dependency. And being gay. Let’s stay focused!

Smile! Gay means love and happiness. If you’re feeling sad, just smoke a joint. Or go have gay sex.

Love, Love, Love this… Chunky with a big nose and a cool bike.. #Love

Finally… Diversity is our Strength!

That’s an interesting way to protest oil dependency. I’m sure the kids loved watching him ride by. Does his sign say, “satan’s army”?

Don’t be sorry. This is totally normal!

If you’re a man suffering from nihilism. Or feel hopeless in Trump’s racist America. Add some meaning to your life. Smoke some pot in a pink skirt and ride your bike around naked in protest of oil dependency. Maybe even have a homosexual experience at while you’re at it. Who cares if you get a disease. We’re all gonna die someday, right?
