The Montreal edition of the World Naked Bike Ride (WNBR) is set to take place on Saturday, so if you see a large group of nude people cycling down the street, you'll know why — it's meant to be a peaceful protest against fossil fuels and the world's dependency on oil.

A map posted by the Facebook group's administrator shows that the ride will pass through City Hall grounds, into the Village, and through Downtown Montreal before returning to the square.
The WNBR'sWiki pagerecommends that cyclists wear a mask for their protection during the ride.
Cyclists can also rent BIXI bikes for the course, but BIXItold MTL Blog in Marchthat it requests that cyclists cover the seats with plastic bags for sanitary purposes. It also reminded participants to wear shoes and helmets.
At the time, Gene Dare, the organizer of the World Naked Bike Ride in Montreal, told MTL Blog that it was hard to say how many cyclists would participate this year. However, its Wiki page states that this year's edition is "a much bigger and exciting ride."
Price: Free to attend, registerhere
When: July 17 at 1 p.m. Night ride begins at 8 p.m.

A schlongathon in Montreal? Meh, it's kinda tame compared to some things that happen up here.
Come on, we know you are in there somewhere. Wagging in the wind... : )
I did think of joining in wearing a full tuxedo.
I can imagine the people there just to snap some pics to put on the internet.
Check the temperature of the bike seat before sitting down.
OwOUOOHHH
Post some pictures when you're done riding. Be sure to disinfect the seat.
Are women allowed?
Yes but body paint is optional.
By whom?
It just seems like it would be really uncomfortable.
