Torchwatch, I do not know where you live, but here in the Montreal area cops do not arrest people for riding bikes wearing speedos, skimpy or not.
As I wrote in another post, I sometimes get yelled at ("put some pants on!") but police cars pass beside me and never stop.
I once had to answer a park officer who asked me if I live nearby so I could put on a pair of shorts... I told him no I live far and I do not have anything more to wear in my bike bag. I was wearing a Coksox swimwear skimpy bikini. It was really hot and humid and he agreed to that... He let me go of course...
As a picture is worth a thousand word, as they say, here is a picture of me in a similar cocksox speedo... sorry I was not smiling, it was really hot!
