Too bad I don't live in Bend, OR.

I wonder what she looks like? Good looking and shapely or fat and ugly. :D Probably the latter. :(
Sorry ladies.

I could loan her one of my "BIKE NAKED - IT ADDS COLOR TO YOUR CHEEKS" T-shirts for her next court appearance. ;)

If it was "non-sexual public nudity" it doesn't matter.
Duh.

These times call for us to unite and support our bicycling brethren.

In support of "Buffy Biker" Terri Sue, let's all bike for 15 minutes naked in our downtowns across America on Monday at 10:00 AM sharp (Central time - 11:00 Eastern, 9:00 Mountain, 8:00 Pacific).

Do it for freedom. If we don't do it, then the terrorists have won and uh... and a computer virus will erase your hard-drive; pass it on to five more people.

OK, so who's with me? Ya?! YA, Man?!!! YA!!!

Alright. Done. See you there!

I always ride completely naked, under my clothes.

That's why my avatar's a bare.

What a coincidence, me too!
Glad to see you posting again Jon. We've missed you around here. :)

Assuming advertising is not disorderly conduct, Terri Sue Webb could have explained to the judge she was simply using her bike to promote a concert by the "Bare Naked Ladies."

I had a feeling this might happen!

Yes, Mike, I'll be there to offer the "Arkansas handshake."

(JonR, you really don't want to get involved with this...)

Reminds me of the old Queen album with the picture on the inside with all those "Fat Bottomed Girls" waiting around to race their bicycles. I still wonder if we could get another band to pull that stsunt sometimes.

Ah now...I have that tune on my brain and I think it may stay there for a while.:D

Heh,

Thanks Allister, that's the exact picture I meant.

BTW, It's still a pretty good album. For you younger folks, that's a round disc made of vinyl that you place on another disc and then you place a needle on it so you can hear music.
