The girl thought for a long time about how to organize a fundraiser, and one day her neighbor jokingly suggested that she ride a bike naked-and Kerry thought it was a great idea. Her goal was to raise money for the mental health charity MIND.

The woman prepared for the action with the help of a contrast shower, but it did not give a special result.
