Because we were so enchanted with Telluride, we decided to spend a day hanging out around town. Our main goals were to get some laundry done and have our bikes worked on (I had a bent derailleur hanger), but we managed to have a ton of fun while we were at it. We ate a delicious picnic next to the crystal-clear San Miguel River that runs right through town. We rode the free gondola up the mountain, and Karin and Wesley took turns on a bungee-trampoline bouncy-thing, doing flips and amusing us all.
Normally, Telluride has some sort of music festival every weekend during the summer, but we happened to show up on the one weekend known as the "Nothing Festival." Luckily for us, the girl at the bike shop told us about the main activity planned for the weekend: a naked bike ride through town.
It had been raining and gotten decidedly cooler by the time the ride rolled around, but we decided to scope it out anyway. We showed up at the meeting spot (a bar) and made our way to several other bars (and through several tequila shots) before heading to the home of a local guy to disrobe. About 20 of us got naked and got on our bikes.
After a few loops around the traffic circle at the edge of town, the group biked down the main street to much applause and cheering from the crowds gathered on the sidewalks. We rode back to the house to gather our clothes and continue partying with the Telluriders.
There was a lot of Guitar Hero and general debauchery before we made our way back to the campsite.

Yeah- photos please!
Wow, I'm impressed. That took some stones, or in your case some ... as the photos show. Still loving the blog.
Mat brought your last post into the AI meeting and we read it aloud. Good thing there were no photos up yet!
Oh BTW naked photos and you only get two comments. What's with that?
Next time try that in Utah and see what happens. You might end up being someone's 3rd wife.
Keep on riding.

Awesome!! Haha, i love it. There is a crazy parade that is held here in Seattle called the Solstice parade and there are naked bikers--mainly w/ body paint--but they ride in the daylight. Next time you'll have to kick it up a notch! :D
BTW, I'm loving the blog. You kick ass Ceci! Much <3
So awesome....I knew you'd have a story like this :)
Maybe this time around I would have succumbed to your envigorating wild-uninhibited aura! I am really into reading about your adventures - I wish I had jumped in and come, although it would take a lake of that cream to soothe my soar ass! I can't wait to see your sunburnt smile in a month!
ambre
and by soar i mean sore! :-)
...LOL...glad I didn't open this one up at work!
What's with the deleted comments? Are you getting solicitations from the cop that gave you the ticket in Nevada?
