Man spotted riding his bike naked along a highway is a naturalist fighting a $200 fine in court for the right to cycle in his G-string
Naturist Nick Lowe got a few more stares than he bargained for as he rode between Havelock and Blenheim, wearing only a helmet, shoes and a leopard-print thong, handmade by his wife,Stuff.co.nz reported.
Resident Christopher Lane said he and his children had attended the Muddy Buddy, a run around a muddy river mouth or estuary, for a family fun day in small town Havelock.
One the drive home, we passed a cyclist and it was just as we passed him we spotted he had hardly any clothes on!’

For those of you who are single, how do you date living a clothes free life? How do you even bring that up in a conversation with someone you are interested in dating? What if they aren’t down with it? What if they want you to stop posting nude photos?
To kick things off, I reflect on some things that came up for me after reading the black history month series “Naturism, nudism and clothes free living: African Americans and the clothes free community,” which was written by Earl D, the Founder, Curator and Editor-in-Chief of clothesfreelife.com. The final installment of the series, published this past Monday, left me thinking about trends I have observed primarily on Instagram with regards to black women and nudity.
Interestingly enough, though, there are some initiatives on Instagram around the naked body in which black women seem to participate. I have observed a number of black women making a kind of return to just being in their body and connecting with the inner essence of who they are. In these images, black women often portray themselves clothes free with paired with thought-provoking and soulful comments. The thing is, these posts are not tied to naturism, nudism or clothes free life labels. Rather, these images are placed in conversations around freedom, reclaiming the body for oneself (as opposed to being judged, consumed and managed by others), returning to nature / being “natural”, reconnecting with earth, tapping into an inner essence of being queens and creators, reclaiming and expressing one’s divine power, stopping rape / rape culture, self love and so forth. Such posts often carry these kinds of hashtags:
Looking out, this could be a consideration for women from any background. One thing that seems to be very important to any of the women you find through those hashtags is the emphasis on individual freedom / independence (“This is just for me”) combined with a feeling of community (“and she is doing this, too, and we can support each other”). In other words, there is this dynamic of individual + sisterhood. Speaking from my personal experience, that resonates as critical for me, too. I have always wanted to cultivate my clothes freedom as my own organic way of being. At the same time, I want to know that there is a community of sisters out there for conversation, connection and support.
