If you see a flurry of, um, parts, flying by you in downtown Toronto on Saturday, June 15, 2013, no, it’s not the Pride Parade: it’s the World Naked Bike Ride, an annual global event, taking place in Toronto and more than 70 cities worldwide. This free, family friendly event encourages riders to ride as bare as possible. The ride is the largest protest against oil dependency.
