A friend sent me a series of pics from a bike tour. Don't have links
so I can't share, but I'm wondering where this is, when, the entry
fee, mileage, and do they provide a T-shirt?

(Claire, didn't you mention one such ride in Seattle one time??)

Some of the painting effort is quite amazing in the photos, from an
artistic standpoint.

Sorry for the very late response, but you're probably thinking about one
of my old posts. I posted a few pics from the Fremont Solstice parade.

I'm skipping the Flying Wheels Century for the first time in 8 years, and
I'm going to ride in the Parade instead, this year. Since the theme is going
to be sustainability, I'm riding with a group of people who are
demonstrating the decline of the honeybee. The basic concept will be yellow
and black, maybe some flowers added, and flowers on the bike.

Could it have been scenes of the World Naked Bike Ride?
http://www.worldnakedbikeride.org/

They have tee-shirts though I've suggested to Conrad that they sell
temporary tattoos as well.

There's also an annual "Critical Ass" ride and the "Critical Tits"
ride at Burning Man where body painting is de rigueur.

"body painting" turns up only 22.7 million Google hits.
