World Naked Bike Ride in London

There isn't too much to say about this one.. In cities all around the world, people come together, take off their clothes (or most of them) and ride bikes as a group around the city. They ride naked in protest of oil-dependency.

I started looking for locations on Whitehall but wasn't happy with what was there so I made my way towards Parliament and Big Ben and was happier with my options. I waited about 30 minutes until the bikers came through and headed back up Whitehall, towards Trafalgar Square and The Mall where I got to play with some light a little bit. I was barely able to keep up as they got to Buckingham Palace so I wasn't able to get many shots that I liked there.

Here are a few of my favorites that are mostly SFW. But just keep in mind these are photos from an event where most people were naked.
