Not the elusive Roslindale bull, but group still sees something startling in the Seaport

Naked and near naked bike riders in the Seaport

Tony Ursillo was among the (fully clothed) people watching naked, half-naked and faux naked people riding down Northern Avenue on bikes, skateboard and, yes, at least one penny farthing last night as part of the annual World Naked Bike Ride Boston, which started at Stony Brook in Jamaica Plain.

The naked bike ride is a world wide event, and much more prominent in some other locales, such as Pacific Northwest, Philadelphia, and in particular, various cities in the UK. Boston is barely a blip on this scene.

For those who, like me, hadn't heard the term "penny farthing" before

The penny farthing was the emblem of Patrick MacGoohan's 1967 TV series "The Prisoner".

World Naked Bike Ride (WNBR) is actually a national event used as a method of protesting the use of fossil fuels and seeks the reduction and elimination of them. https://wiki.worldnakedbikeride.org/wiki/Main_Page

In Some cities it may also adopt other areas of concern to be added to the protest.

It is tolerated in most cities as a matter of free speech and expression. In some conservative towns maybe not so but a good attorney usually gets charges dropped.

A chance, but for some deemed worth it.

Flopping around on a bike I’m doing the opposite of what he’s peddling. Gross!!

You mean when you feel shamed by some old fit dude on a bike ...

Lol, ya. Ok. Just because you ride a bike doesn’t mean you’re fit. If fact, from my observations it’s the opposite.

Interesting to note that you have a fit guy with his dong out riding a bike in public fetish. Not too weird, but definitely questionable.
