That's so funny, it looks like a mummy convention on bicycles or parachutes with faces.

Ash said...

AussiePomm said...

I think I will keep what I thought they were to myself... ;)

Mine is up as well at WW Pests, Pets and Petals!

Have a great WW!

colleen said...

It's driving me crazy not to know what's going on!

LifeRamblings said...

that's kinda weird. there must be a good reason for wearing such outfits.

Great capture! Take it was raining. lol Happy WW!

Snowcatcher said...

Excellent! You were really in the right place, and you must have a quick trigger finger, unless the wind was constant...

Little Hatchlings said...

I had to do a double take on this pix. It certainly fool me...I thought they were someone else. Great shot!!

Shiju Sugunan said...

Ha ha! Nice fun picture.

catsynth said...

I definitely had to zoom in to get a better few of this one. Interesting how they have matching jackets and wind dynamics :) Was this in San Jose?

And Miles To Go: It looks like a race, but isn't.

Sukhmandir Kaur: You have a vivid imagination. I like what you saw.

Ash: It's not a raincoat, but probably made with similar material which is suppose to "inflate" when they ride.

AussiePomm: I am curious what you were thinking. :P

Colleen: Have you heard of the Aeolian Ride? I hadn't either until I saw this. It actually goes on in different parts of the world. Here's what the website says "...52 suits that inflate when 52 people go for a bike ride...The ride changes the ordinary landscape into a moving sculpture paying homage to the bicycle, the riders and the wind." Hope that answers your question.

Life Ramblings: No reason, just plain silliness and to have fun.

scrapchick: It wasn't raining, just silly people wearing inflatable suits and having fun.

Snowcatcher: The suits are made to inflate. I do like taking strange pictures or people doing things out of the ordinary.

Uyen: I'm sure people on the street that day also did double-takes.

Shiju: Thanks, glad to make you laugh.

catsynth: Yes, it was in SJ. I didn't count, but it was suppose to be 52 riders. Why 52? I don't know.

rainfield61: I think they succeeded in making onlookers smile.

Yogi: Nope, it's right in the heart of the Silicon Valley in California.

amandab: Haha, cycling nuns would be funny!

steve from bethere2day: Glad you liked it! :D

RoseBelle said...

LOL! What were those bikers wearing? Windbreakers?

AVCr8teur said...

RoseBelle: I'm not sure what they're made of, but the suits are suppose to inflate when they are riding with the wind. It's suppose to be an artistic display.

I really have no words for this one so it's perfect for Wordless Wednesday.
