Today I Learned One of the Best Cities for Naked Biking is in Texas

You learn something new every day.

And today I learned that there are a whole lot of people out there who like to ride bikes in the buff. Seriously – people are really, really into this.

One of the things I learned about riding bicycles over the years is that it’s not a matter of if you’re going to wreck at some point, but a matter of when. And let me tell you, I’ve gone down hard more than once on a bike.

When it comes to wrecking on a bicycle, your best bet is to slide rather than run directly into some sort of object. Sure, road rash sucks, but it’s preferable to broken bones or a concussion.

But having road rash on your junk? Just the thought of it makes me cringe.

Anyway, if you just so happen to be one of those people who prefer to cruise in the nude and live here in the Lone Star State, you’re in luck because one of the best cities for naked bike riding in the country is our state capital. Yep, good old Austin is quite friendly to those who like to let it all hang out while out for a joy ride.

The website LawnStarter crunched the numbers and determined Austin to be the 4th best city for naked biking in the United States.

Of course, you’re wondering which U.S. city is the friendliest to those who prefer to feel the wind in their privates while pedaling down the road and that would be Chicago. Well, it is known as the ‘Windy City’ so it makes sense.
