September 12, 2016 by HughE Dillon

Photos from the 2016 Philly Naked Bike Ride. The ride is meant to highlight body positivity and bring awareness towards fuel consumption. It was held Saturday, September 10 throughout downtown Philadelphia starting near the Art Museum, swinging by City Hall, down Chestnut Street passed Independence Hall, up Market Street to JFK into West Philly, down Chestnut Street to 19th, around Rittenhouse Square, down Locust to South Street and several after parties. I photographed them at 4 locations and at each one their was a healthy crowd there to cheer them on. Did I mention they had a police escort, yes they did. People always ask me did anyone get arrested, no.

Ultimately, one of the goals of the Philly Naked Bike Ride is to desexualize nudity and to encourage everyone to embrace nudity as a normal, enjoyable way of life. Following this policy will help further this goal and teach all of us how to be better people in general. naked

The dogs are important resources to
the department but were not even an option until the community stepped
in. Specifically, local business owner Michael Smyth of The Great
Britains Automotive Group, who proudly sponsored the K-9 Unit, by
providing a special Black Pack Edition Land Rover LR4. The 2014 LR4 is
specially fitted and will be used by the department to transport the
expertly trained K-9 duo, ‘Rover’ and ‘Discovery.’
