A downside to naked cycling

One of the downsides of World Naked Bike Rides, especially if your health care isn't what it should be.

Can somebody clue me in on Bike Pong?

Helmet safety & the CPSC: Apparently nobody considers the paperwork requirements to be onerous. "No comments were received in response to the notice."

California sues cities for bad urban planning. Wow. "California is pioneering what could be the next battleground against global warming: filing suit to hold cities and counties accountable for greenhouse gas emissions caused by poorly planned suburban sprawl."

Bicycle basket deters theft. I like that idea.

Man-eating wolves in Michigan!

Why in the world does the UCI offer to sponsor skateboarding as an Olympic sport? Because sk8rs dope less than cyclists? I can't figure this one out.

Thanks for the many comments on the amoral bicycle commute!
