World Naked Bike Ride

[Tamyka Bell]

A group in NZ is organising a ride but so far no one in
Australia. Personally I think OUCH and it'd probably be a
bit cold, too... but the website is pretty funny.

I've done 12 km of a mountain bike race naked. (Not a pretty
sight!) It was part of a 12 hour race and you got a bonus
lap if you did one naked.

So when you said "that's just wrong" that wasn't your
opinion? Were you posting it for someone else?

It's not just my personal opinion. It's Usenet etiquette and
has been for many years.

The problem is that many people aren't posting to a.b from a newsreader nowadays. Many don't even know what usenet is and would certainly not be aware of top/bottom posting.

It doesn't help that one of the most common newsreader (OE) basically sets users up for top-posting.

Personally, I don't care if it's top or bottom, so long as it's consistent and easily readable. The thing is, this is the internet and anyone can choose to ignore what _I_ want...

Break the shackles, I say, type vertically!! ;-)

But I don't shave at the top end now! Why should I shave the
bottom end?

Just heard a story on JJJ news about a Dutch church group protesting about the Naked Bike ride as it will be on the same day/location as their yewf charity ride
