Just think about how much (or how little) skin has been shown in the name of HNT over the course of the last 5 years!

The anniversary theme for this week was a little challenging for me, since my old blogspot hangout is long gone.  Plus, I wondered if I should use my first appearance on The Other HNT instead.  I was submitting pics there almost 2 months before I had my own blog, so technically this picture was my first HNT.  But a little digging thru the XML file from my old blog and I was able to figure out that these pics were from my first HNT, on September 4, 2008-

Now reproducing these pics was going to pose 2 challenges- I don’t own that bike any more and my new road bike, the one from my HNT Bike Porn Edition post, is in my office at work so that I can get in my rides at lunchtime during the week.  But have no fear, I also own a mountain bike!

Notice the T-shirt, that’s my souvenir from when I participated in the 5 Boro Bike Tour of NYC a few weeks ago.

Veronica‘s HNT is a bit less than half-nekkid and I reproduced the original picture quite faithfully, if I may say so myself!

Don’t forget to visit Osbasso to see all of the other (more or less) half-nekkidness!
