A rambler who headed for the hills in nothing but his birthday suit, a baseball cap and a pair of boots has been fined £315.
Nigel Keer, 41, was found guilty of a public order offence and causing distress to a female dogwalker while out and about at Otley Chevin in Leeds - a popular beauty spot.
The court heard the committed naturist had kept a score while on his stroll on October 2 last year to see if he scored a positive or negative reaction. At the time of his arrest by an off-duty police officer the score was 15-0 in his favour.
Magistrates in Leeds heard he carried out the arrest after he saw a woman looking at Keer with 'a disgusted frown'.
Keer maintained he did not mean to cause offence.
'It is not what I wanted. It is not right. I do not believe it is right and I will be appealing,' he told Press Association after the hearing.
'Of course I will carry on being a naturist. I have been a naturist for seven years.'
The hearing was also told Keer had raised money for charity by doing the Three Peaks Challenge naked and attending naked bike rides across the country.
