Thousands of parade-goers filled the streets Saturday for the annual Fremont Fair and Solstice Parade with dozens of floats, musicians and people-powered ensembles - and yes, the famous painted naked bicyclists. The fair also features booths of crafts, music stages and beer gardens.
The parade kicked off midday with plenty of fanfare, with festivities lasting through the evening and expanding out to Gas Works Park.
