Hundreds of cyclists went as bare as they dared Sunday for the annual Naked Bike Ride through Brighton, England.

Those taking part in the annual event set off from Preston Park and made their way to the nude bathing beach in Madeira Drive via Hove Lawns.

The organizers said that they aimed to raise awareness of their message that “fossil fuels continue to be the greatest threat to the planet and all life, including humans”.

They said: “Cycling is the most efficient form of human-powered transport and burns fat not petrol, gas, diesel or even carbon dense electrical power.

A similar event was held Saturday in central Mexico City where organizers said the focus was to make cyclists visible and raise awareness among the population about their fragility in road accidents, according to the Associated Press.
