Oh no you don't. <snip>

Oh yes I will - I suggest that you look at their web site!

What is this ride about?

In 2006, cyclists/skaters in the UK will participate in the third
worldwide naked ride/skate protest against oil dependency. We will
celebrate the power and individuality of our own bodies through
this
ride.

"This is the first time there has been a world wide event
protesting
against oil dependency at the same time." -Mike of barewitness.org

QED.

Perhaps you should actually read what it says on the site

I have, that was a direct quote from the URL that Duncan posted.


- the
protest abot oil dependence is ONE of the aims of the ride

Thanks for agreeing with me, the protest IS a protest against oil
dependency.

- another
main point is the "celebrate the power and individuality of our own
bodies". It is more than a one issue ride.

That's just the 'honey' to attract the media.
