Repeat Rider
 

Anyone have any more of this rider? I've found some from previous years; blue hair: 2016, wonder woman: 2015, red flames: 2014

I can't believe there's much peeing at all: route is WAY too short and there's opportunity for bailout at gasworks park

Yeah, there are bathroom facilities at the painting party and at the end of the ride. Also, as pointed out by spankycranky, the ride itself is less than an hour for most riders, so pretty unlikely anyone will need to stop along the way, especially considering drinking is banned at the painting party.

As far as erections, there's plenty of partial wood, especially at the painting party. There are lots of photographers who focus on men so I'm sure you can find photos on flickr if that's your thing.

However, something to keep in mind compared with the WNBR events is that the Solstice ride is an unofficial event and exists in a delicate balance with the folks who organize the parade, the city of Seattle and Fremont merchants. There's a lot of pressure to keep things family-friendly. Even in super-liberal Seattle that means de-emphasizing unpainted nudity and VERY strongly discouraging anything sexual. Someone on the parade route sporting a full-on boner would probably be told to cover up.

"Super liberal seattle" -well that's the key to understanding the ride. Super liberal would apply to the fremont district, but not the city as a whole. The tensions arise due to that conflict. Seattle is a progressive city, but really much like cities like san Diego which is largely family friendly and conservative leaning in many respects.
So often tensions arise over the kiddies element.

I used to make note in my photos when kiddies were present, as I though that was an interesting phenomena, to observe the kids reactions. It seemed positive that parents were bringing their kids to the parade. Not sure what I would have done, probably left them at home.

Well, yeah, lonemeat, I do agree with what you said. Maybe I'm just rewording it to emphasize where the super liberal resides. But I think you know what I mean. We're really sort of saying the same thing.

For a variety of reasons a WNBR has never really gotten off the ground in Seattle, unfortunately. However, I do think that a big ride similar to the Portland WNBR, that's a bit more bawdy than the Solstice ride, would be accepted here.

The issue with the Solstice ride is that the Fremont Fair is basically a typical kind of event/parade, with lots of businesses as sponsors, so they're naturally leery about associating with anything even mildly controversial.

OTOH, there are definitely people within the Solstice Cyclists group who don't like the way the Fremont Fair tries to control what's acceptable with the riders and would like to have a ride that's separate from the parade. Last year there was a pretty significant push to do a night ride the evening of the solstice.

Anyway, I love the Solstice parade, I think it's an amazing event but I wouldn't be surprised if at some point the cyclists go off on their own.

The thing I love
 

What I love about events like the Fremont Solstice and WNBRs (and public "flashing" pics) is the unbridled joy I see on the faces. The smile on this woman's face is one of the most adorable things I've ever seen in this forum. I just want to wrap her up in a big hug...among other things. Her smile gave me some warmth on this cold winter's day. Thanks to the photographer and poster. Thanks for this thread.

I don't have proof of this, you understand, but I've often suspected that business interests in the fremont district may have actually promoted the naked cyclists. Or perhaps vendors at the fair. Think of fantasyfest, which likely was an idea hatched by downtown business owners as a way to jack up sales.

Anyway, there are guys up in Seattle actively promoting naked rides, and it seemed for a while like they were succeeding in packing the summer with various events. But none have attracted numbers, and depressingly, often the same faces/bods show up at each one. A night ride is what is needed, and seems one near the Washington university campus was in the works one year. That's near gaswork park. I do not know however if they would have the local/police support that portland has.

Unpainted rider challenge
 

I've never posted one of these, but what the heck. In the background of the photo below I noticed an unpainted rider that I don't think I'd seen in a better image.

After some searching I found a good (watermarked) shot of her, and she really is quite beautiful, but nothing else. Any other photos of her out there somewhere?

efff
 

I got nothin. Which brings me to a thought about the 2016 parade: a lot has been said about the foxy girl turnout but really i think it was a lack of snappers combined with the weather that made it a down year. how are there not any other decent photos of this hottie?!? Let me tell you...some of us have sorted and there ain't jack!

A Seattle police officer at the Gasworks Park post-parade function told me that any "lewd behavior" would lead to an arrest last year. No arrests were made.

Good eye (spotting her in the background) and great find (the large SmugMug pic). I love it when there's a gem hidden behind the limelight.

Unpainted beauty w/ black purse, black helmet & black/gold Jamis hybrid bike -- I'll keep an eye out for her and report back if I find any more...

I was there for the first time in 2016
 

I had seen photos for years and ended up there for business last year and went.. awesome day I have a bunch to share.. If I should post more let me know..

another batch
 

Here are some more.. I thought she was lovely..

Yes please!!!
 

Yes yes yes!!! These are awesome!!!

Peacock girl
 

This being my first time I actually stayed and watched the entire parade not knowing that all the adult fun had moved to Gas Works Park.. So I showed up there late.. I saw the Peacock girl on the route and ran into her at the park.. This guy in the photo was taking selfies with every painted women who would take on with him.. he was a good distraction.. she did pose for a photo after also.

bumble bee
 

Her wonderful bush ended up catching the corner of my eye.. while she was resting at the park with her friends.

She is listed a a faviorte already
 

I saw her in the parade and in other post here and on the net.. She was super friendly and posed for a photo at Park after the parade.

Purple Rain Girl
 

Since I watched the entire parade.. a few non nudes/painted caught my eye.. This one was with the Purple Rain Theme float.. (Prince had recently passed).. She had a killer body and great smile.. ran into her at the park also as I was leaving.. and surprise she had a nice unplanned nipple slip..

AWESOME! She was honestly probably my favorite girl from Fremont last year, despite being non-nude. So, the nip slip is fantastic! Thanks for catching it!

Thanks

Fango

Brunette
 

So I arrived early got at to the corner where I learned the turn around happens and moments before the bikes start coming down the hill.. this security guy shows up and stand right in front of me and a few other shooters.. then he would not stay in one spot.. but I was able to still get some nice ones of her..

Blue girl with nice nipples
 

She looked like she was having a great time.. and her nipples are wonderful..

Dragon Girl
 

I have seen photos of her just after I ran into at the Gas Works dancing on top of the hill.. I should have followed.. I love redheads and she is incredible!! and selfie man almost knocked her over trying to get a photo with her and her friend..

Rainbow Trike girl
 

I saw some photos of her posted already.. Here are a few more and some candid shots of her at the Park. Hope the candid shots don't offend anyone..

Yes, she is very very yummy and the slip is a great catch of serendipity!

Cat girl and friends
 

Just liked the color of her paint.. and her riding buddies are pretty hot too..

Hands couple
 

I wonder if they did this to each other or let others join in the fun..

I will post more later tonight or tomorrow.. are there any you old pros that have either been in the past or have seen here that you want me to see if I have anymore of anyone particular?

If they do then they are on the wrong forum! Thank you, these are more than excellent! :D

Some Random shots
 

I think I have seen some of these posted by others here are a few more..

Purple Bush Girls
 

Some of us have posted these two before.. I did not notice until I was going through this that they shared a bike for the parade.. The last shot you can see how large the pack of riders coming down the hill was.. it was hard to shoot them all. but I have a bunch..

Pool Table Crew
 

They had a good theme for a larger group of riders. They look like they are having a great time.

Park Swim
 

I'm adding these.. I did get to the park late and most of the riders where gone or leaving.. these two showed up to the park and I guess decided.. what the hell lets go for a swim.. I think the parade brings this spirit out of people.. I have some of the girls getting their paint off in the water if anyone wants to see those.

Yes! Even if the photos don't meet incredibly high bar of the ones you've recently posted, I'm sure that they'll be a welcome addition here!

Great work, keep it up!!!!!

This is actually my favorite one yet: very fit couple, getting undressed for what looks like an unplanned skinny dip...
