The annual madness known as the Fremont Fair, was kicked off yesterday by the Solstice Parade. It featured the usual array of bubble-makers, puppets and floats, but the biggest cheers are always reserved for the nude bicyclists.
This puppet in particular caught my eye. It was a marvel of art and engineering, with a guy in a backpack harness supporting the whole thing!
The hundreds of bicyclists, both male and female, let it all hang out.
Not all were on bicycles. These ladies were more comfortable on rollerblades.
My personal favorites were these lovely young ladies sponsored by the local chocolate factory! No bicycles required!
Some of the body paint could really fool the eye.
All shapes and sizes participated.
Of course, Hal didn't want to miss a thing. That's him there, head and shoulders above the crowd, in his lounge chair hanging from the bamboo tripod he erected adjacent to Lenin's statue.
Here's a close-up view. Thanks to Joe Grande for supplying the rigging from his sailboat!
