I would not say this guy is good advocate....no helmet, no flashing lights, no clothes

Bad example
It’s not the lack of clothes that bothers me; it’s riding in the middle lane of 101 that I can’t understand.

there is that also, and at King and Story. and to add to the fun, the guy apparently jumped the center median and started cycling the wrong way on 101

I could not help but notice how effectively he "Took the Lane" on that freeway. I wonder if he used hand signals to direct the traffic piling up behind him consisting of people just trying to get to work?
He could be an extremely radical bike advocate (heck, it is the Bay Area) or maybe even a former poster. But hey, even naked guys have to get to work on time. Maybe he works at a strip club, was running late, and took a shortcut on the freeway. Yeah, that's the ticket!

what I wonder is how he managed to ride away from critical mass in downtown San Francisco all the way to San Jose...

So I saw the exact opposite on the MUP tonight:
Person riding along covered head to toe Zentai style. Not even holes cut for the eyes, nose or mouth.
How the hell they saw anything with no lights at twilight is beyond me.

He should start an "Evaluate My Riding Position" thread here. Though he could probably use some good legal advice at this point.
