World Naked Bike Ride

There are probably thousands of photos on Flickr of pale body parts flapping in the wind, if you're into that kind of thing.

Bicycle news in review

I've been doing more riding than blogging lately, which is a good thing but it also means I've fallen behind in the news. I've mentioned them before, but remember that the the Ditty Bops are on tour across the USA and they're posting their photos and notes at their blog. Velochimp saw a photo of himself and subsequently went on a diet to get below 200 pounds. Get your Official Tour de France Guide from VeloNews. Bianchi has gotten into the urban/hipster/bike culture fashion craze.

Air Pollution

It's summer time, which means it's the season for Ozone Alerts and with them programs to promote public transit. In Tulsa, Sunoco sponsors your free trip on public transit. In the SF Bay Area, we have Spare The Air. In Austin, the Capital Metro provides bus rides Free For All on Ozone Action Days. What programs are used in your area to mitigate air pollution on hot summer days?
