Zoobomb is a weekly bike event in Portland. Zoobombers take the light rail to the Washington Park Zoo and "bomb" down through the Arlington Heights neighborhood on various types of bicycles - especially mini-bikes. Zoobombers also take on the daring descent of Hwy 26 (a freeway sections where bicycles are allowed). After a bomber wiped-out on Hwy 26, aka Hellway, Portland Police felt the need to check up on these bicycling insurgents and here is some of the video they captured.
Portland, Ore. --- Hundreds of cyclists going as bare as they dared swarmed the streets of Portland June 10, 2006, for the largest naked bike ride in North America. As many as 500 nude or nearly nude cyclists rode for two and a half hours circling downtown to the cheers and jeers of spectators, motorists, and passersby. This year also marked the debut of Portland’s first daytime naked bike ride, which culminated in a group photo shot in the lovely Ladd’s Addition rose garden. Warning: This video contains nudity. (Duh.)
