In this weather there won't be anything to offend. Move along now, nothing to see here, it's far too shrunken:rolleyes:

Why are you queasy, look in the mirror, we are all human.

One comment that struck me was that judging by their physiques, how many were 'real' cyclists as opposed to the collection of freaks/exhibitionists posing for the camera?

Perhaps I am now older enough (46 on Thursday) to look at a naked body and not think of sex but just of it as flesh and bone in all shapes and sizes. It's unusual to ride a bike naked but I am not going to judge them for it..

Disclaimer: If Mrs Lance Jack was to read this then I do look at her naked and think of sex (but she wishes I wouldn't)

Which means said person has no clue as to what the average person looks like, and reads far to many magazines with airbrushed models in.
It means nothing of the sort.
If a random collection of cyclists were involved, there would be all shapes there, tall, short, fat, thin, etc.
Instead we see old, fat and tattoed freaks.

Why are they freaks?

Whats wrong with being old?

Looking at the first pic all i see are normal people.
And looking at the last pic all I see is a pair of freaks.
There is nothing wrong with being old (I'm old), it's the notion that it's somehow acceptable to be old AND parade naked in public that I object to.

You see a couple (1 x male and 1 x female) who live a different lifestyle to you. Live and let live, they are not harming you. Cyclists are objected to frequently, some members on here have tattoos. Some on this forum have been on naked bike rides (not me).

I have far more things that offend me than a few overweight tattood people who have no clothes on.

Of course they're not harming me! That doesn't mean I'm not allowed to have a view on the matter.
You say some members on here have tattoos? Big deal...how many have their faces covered with them?
I too have far more things that offend me but that wasn't the nature of my post and you know it.
