Mexico: Thousands of n-aked cyclists protest aggressive drivers




Thousands of Mexican cyclists rode n-aked Saturday to protest aggressive drivers and carbon emissions from cars - and the conservativeness of central Mexico's Jalisco state - organizers said.
Some 3,000 demonstrators -- some bare head to toe, others in bathing suits or underwear -- braved catcalls and embarrassed smiles from residents as they biked some 12 miles (20 kilometers) to end up in Guadalajara, the biggest city in Jalisco state.
In downtown Mexico City, nearly 2,000 bikers - n-aked or scantily clad - also demonstrated. Some slapped "fragile" stickers on their bodies or painted messages on their skin: "more bicycles, less pollution," and "the city is for everyone, let bikes pass."
