Another image from last Saturday night.
The Mardi Gras for decades has been led by “Dykes on Bikes”!!
They’re not going the wrong way. They go West to East where they meet up with the start of the parade and then lead it down Oxford Street East to West!
Looks like everyone is having a great time… is the woman on the red Ducati taking a selfie while driving a motorcycle? Is so that is pretty extraordinary… but also a bit scary…. Maybe she is just waving to the crowd… hard to tell.
The only time they could ride a bike in Aussie without wearing a helmet! I have ridden in the States where there are some states where you don't have to wear them. Feels a bit strange though.
Thanks for the much appreciated comments. I enjoyed taking photos there.
Thanks for the much appreciated comments. I’m glad you like the images. Thanks again.
Thanks. It was strange to see riders without helmets! As they have been compulsory for decades.
You’re absolutely right. She is taking a selfie!! I didn’t see that! Well spotted.
Thanks for the much appreciated comments. This was my first visit to Mardi Gras. It was a really fun looong night. Love it!
