Lead organizer Elizabeth Tieri told Time Out Chicago that Saturday's ride, bolstered by gorgeous weather, went off without a hitch. Organizers say they're still working out the total number of riders this year, but typically about 1,000 nearly-naked folks take to the streets for a ride that snakes through the Loop and the North Side.

Your eyes weren't deceiving you-that was the 2021 edition of the World Naked Bike Ride Chicago, an annual biking advocacy event that sends scantily-clad riders on a 14-mile ride across city streets to raise awareness about world oil dependency and cyclist rights.
