BICYCLING -- We're happy to report that none of the hundred or so participants in Missoula's recent Bare As You Dare bike ride was arrested, although some riders may have suffered sunburn -- and severe chaffing.

See the Missoulian story and check out the photo gallery -- if you dare.

  • Would any group, other than baristas, dare to be bare riding bikes in downtown Spokane?
