Rider removed from naked cycling event for getting an ERECTION

The "over excited" rider was removed from the World Naked Bike Ride event before the event on Saturday. He was reportedly pulled aside and spoken to by officers. The event, which was held in Canterbury, Kent, was held to highlight the dangers cyclist face from cars.

One eye witness, who was taking part in the ride in Canterbury, Kent, described it as a "horrible sight".

"It's fair to say he was overexcited and got aroused. It looked like he was enjoying the event a bit too much. One of the organisers went over to him and told him to put his trousers on while speaking on a walkie-talkie to the police," they said.

According to advice given to riders before the event, any inappropriate behaviour would be dealt with by the police. Chief inspector Mark Arnold, of Kent Police, said an individual was spoken to and he was "required to get dressed and leave the protest" but no action will be taken against him.

World Naked Bike Ride events will be held in Folkestone, Kent, and Portsmouth, Hants.
