Pants Off ride this Saturday, January 10
The “Global No Pants Subway Ride Portland” Event is happening this Saturday, January 10th. Expect some pantless riders between 3 - 6pm on the MAX and buses.
Heard about this event on OregonLive. You can RSVP or read more event details on the Portland Facebook page.
Me? Eh. I don’t think my wife will appreciate me riding pantless on the MAX ![]()

Count me, my wife, and my son in.
In, that is, in my privately owned automobile.
In clothes. In pants.
Erik, I am with you - I may also be there - with PANTS on, inside a PRIVATE Max cab…
Oh, this will be a lot of fun ![]()
OK, so did anybody see any pantless riders at all? I sure did not, and I WAS at work, all night…
I am so relieved… I think… The entertainment value would have been great, though, so in a way I feel cheated…

Yes, I think this was a big NON-EVENT. Perhaps it would have been more popular if the temps had not been so low. Actually, that saved the day…
Yet, there is that entertainment value…
I saw a pack of pantless riders on the streetcar headed south. I think most people found it amusing, though I noticed a few offended folks averting their eyes. In all honesty, “pantless” is not much different than “wearing shorts.” So far, I’d say this event cannot hold a candle to the World Naked Bike Ride, which is THE pantless event of the year here in our fair city.
@ethan agreed. I mean hey, I’m a boxer-brief dude. If I went “pantless” it would essentially be me in almost shorts.
The Naked Bike Ride, yeah, now that is a bit more shocking than a pantless public transportation ride ![]()


Hm… Yes, another TriMet employee emailed me about this event. Unfortunately I AM working Saturday between 3 and 6 PM - I don’t know how much I will enjoy the various kinds of underwear I might see… I am kind of picky…
I am hoping I can trade my work with the guy I often trade with for Saturdays…
Sigh…
They should have had this day in the middle of the snow storm. Now, THAT would have been fun
Perhaps next year…
