   PEDAL POWER: Senior Constable Cathy Duder was patrolling Whangamata on
   the North Island of New Zealand when she spotted two bicyclists. She
   stopped them since they were starkers, she said -- wearing nothing at
   all. "They were more shocked than I was, trying to cover up their bits
   and pieces with their hands," she said. When she asked them why they
   were riding without clothes, the two "very fit" men in their 20s said
   "they wanted to experience total freedom," she said. "And I said to
   them, 'The way you're heading, you're going to experience total
   confinement'." She gave them a warning -- for failure to wear helmets
   -- and sent them on their way. "I suggested that they stay on their
   bicycles and not get off," she said, "because they were managing to
   discreetly hide their bits and pieces." (Australian AP) ...You know, I
   somehow doubt either of them is going to get off anytime soon.

   And tourism is about to go up! I have to say to this guy, if clothes are that uncomfortable, then why socks and shoes??

    Whangamata is a small beachside town that swells in numbers over the December-January holiday period with people coming to stay in campgrounds and holiday homes. It is a centre for boat fishing, and has some amazing beaches with it short drives. Airy saw the New Year in there this year. She didn't see any naked cyclists though.

    All I can say is they are braver than myself!! If I was the naked person someone would be digging their own eyes out!!! Or they might mistake me to a beached Orca--either way not improving my self image!
