World Naked Bike Ride

[ 30:44 ]
Cycling naked through London's busiest districts may seem like a guaranteed way of getting arrested. But the organisers of the Naked Bike Ride also hope it will publicise global warming. "The aims of the naked bike ride are to protest against oil dependency and promote a car free culture", explains organiser Jesse. They also hope it will become a celebration of the human body. Despite a budget of only £90, the event attracts a lot of publicity. Over 200 cyclists participate and it has now become a regular event.

Swing State (Cameron Hickey)
Tuesday mornings are reserved exclusively for women golfers at the Llanerch Country Club in the Main Line section of suburban Philadelphia - a key region in this swing state for the 2008 election. Mary Pat McClatchey and her friends golf every Tuesday morning at 8am before having lunch at the clubhouse, an event which you can "hear all across the club" says fellow Llanerch club member Thomas Feeney. We'll follow Pat and her golf foresome through eighteen holes of golf and their ladies' lunch afterward. We'll ask them how "historic" they feel this election is, how they and their respective families feel about the candidates this year, and what this means for their children's future. As a critical swing area in a critical swing state, the Main Line is part of the broad center in American politics, and these women are at the heart of this pivotal battleground.
