Protest Oil Dependency and Showcase Your Gorgeous Self Love
WNBR-C is a fun and conspicuous event celebrating the end of the oil era, and promoting positive body image. This event is global with dozens of cities participating world-wide, and Chicago routinely setting U.S. turnout records. This is a bare-as-you-dare event, with outfits ranging from body paint to fanciful costumes to beach-wear. Chicago's past rides rallied hundreds of cyclists and numerous skaters covering over a dozen miles of high visibility city tourism and recreation areas. The ride's atmosphere is extremely joyful and transcendently fun.
Bicycles constitute the best solution to reducing America's petroleum addiction and improving public fitness.
Potential riders in Chicago must join the Yahoo group http://ChicagoNakedRide.com for location announcement or call the hotline on ride day: 773-578-6289.

Today, the boys and I along with my best friend Khary headed to the 18th annual Fiesta Back of the Yards. The event spans four blocks in the primarily Mexican community known as the Back of the Yards (1800 W. 47th St) and highlights the ‘hood’s diversity with more than a 100 vendors selling everything from tacos and tortas to jewelry and brews. Three stages feature local DJs, bands and dance groups, and there are carnival games and rides and tons of community outreach services (free condoms at the Planned Parenthood Booth).
The Fiesta is one of many neighborhood festivals being held this weekend and runs through Sunday.
As usual, here are pics from mere moments ago....
