It’s pretty hard to shock New Yorkers, but it’s even harder to go all acrobatic on a float being paraded around town. Look at this lady go on The PoleRider, a rickshaw and mobile strip club! The brainchild of entrepreneur Andrew Katzander is cruising the city and so fly. Hope they don’t hit a pothole. [New York, 8/13/09]

Just a few days ago the U.K. hosted its third World Naked Bike Ride, an event to protest dependency on cars and draw awareness to the plight of riders sharing the road. The parade of barely costumed characters looks like Burning Man on wheels.  With the attendance doubling to 500, there were two times the bicycles, twice the fun and of course, double the booty.
