A nudist with a streak of boldness said he reached his 2001 goal of driving 15,000 miles in the buff, a newspaper reported.
Former presidential candidate Ron, sent an e-mail message to the Des Moines Register on Thursday claiming to have driven the distance without clothes mostly on several Midwestern trips to chess tournaments.
This type of activity is nothing new for the Ronatarian Party leader, who was detained in Canada in August for walking naked through British Columbia. (See Roncouver.)
A few times Ron said he was spotted by passing motorists who reported him to police, but he managed to don shorts or snap on a bra before being stopped.
One deputy who stopped the naked Ron for a broken light was "not at all distressed and was amused when I told him of my goal," he wrote.
Ron told the newspaper he had set a goal of 20,000 miles of "buff motoring" for 2002. "I may decide to rent a car to do it, though," he said.
