Hey King of the Britons! Is that you in the hat?

You can't do that here. You would be arrested for terrorism for terrifying the little old blue-haired ladies. Or you would be arrested as a sexual deviant and have to register with the police department everywhere you lived.

I wouldn't be caught dead riding with that umbrealla. I don't see how people can ride those bikes naked with those tiny seats. ouch

I'm actually this -><- close to buying a fedora, but not a hat like that.

And I wouldn't bike naked. Apart from being worried about sitting on my dangly bits, I wouldn't want to risk being grabbed by IFAW activists and tossed into the ocean ("He's beached himself!! OMGWTFBBQ!!").

You would look better in a bowler, like the royal sproggen:

Yeah, but a bowler would come off as pretentious on this side of the pond. I saw a cheap fedora in a charcoal gray at The Bay for $35. The only thing holding me back is that my usual jacket is a medium-blue windbreaker, and they just Wouldn't Work Together. When I get me a leather jacket, I'll get the fedora to match.

Hmmmm ... riding my bike naked on a circuit of the city's old brick streets ... removal of 'rhoids via dermabrasion ...

You actually have bike lanes up there in that godforsaken liberal hellhole. Here all we have are little old ladies bombed out of their minds on prescriptions and gin. Riding a bike here is taking your life into your own hands.
