Dozens of naked bikers took to Mexico City’s streets Saturday, June 8, to raise awareness of cycling as a healthy transportation option. ADVERTISEMENTParticipants in the World Naked Bike Ride turned out with Mexican flair, some in underwear and others just as they came into the world, plus maybe a bike helmet or colorful wrestler’s mask. Biking has gradually become more popular in traffic-choked Mexico City, which has more than four million cars on its roads daily. In mid-May, Mexico City’s air pollution levels were so high that schools closed and vehicle use was restricted. The event in Mexico City is part of a global movement promoting greater use of bicycles in large cities and more sustainable transportation solutions.
