Check out some colorful photos from the Sixth Annual Bicycle Fetish Day, which took over a sleepy block of Havemeyer Street in Williamsburg Saturday. As usual, members of the local bike clubs represented with their extravagantly ornamented bikes, there were BMX tricksters courtesy of POST Bike Shop, and cycling information booths from local biking groups.

The after-party was hosted by City Reliquary, which is celebrating the 127th birthday of the Brooklyn Bridge with a group ride, departing from their headquarters at 370 Metropolitan Ave at 6 p.m. There will be birthday cake served on the bridge, music by the Lucky Chops Brass Band, and a history lesson from tour guide Matt Levy of Levy's Unique New York. (The suggested donation is $5, and they could use the money.)
