Ride Details

Assemble at 1pm on Monday the 9th of March 2009 of the public holiday weekend at Whitmore square in the city.

After a great first ride by 6 participants in 2008, Adelaide rides again in 2009 . Be there and continue the history !

The ride is `bare as you dare' --- we suggest body paint, but you are free to wear as much or as little as you want. Fancy dress, self-decoration and other attention-grabbers are all very much encouraged. See The Art of WNBR for ideas on decorating yourself and your bike as well as lots of other background information. Knowledge is power !

Want to ride naked but aren't sure ? Get down to the local clothes-optional beach and get used to the idea of being nude outdoors and in public. But remember --- it's bare as you dare. You don't have to ride naked if you don't want to.

Make sure your bike is reliable. There will be no back-up team. If your bike lets you down, you're out of the event ! Sorry. Consider getting the fancy puncture-resistant tyres; they're expensive, but might save you on the day. Don't just dig that old boneshaker out of the shed two days before the event and hope it will be alright. It won't. If you don't ride regularly, start now; get to know your machine so that you're not worrying about it during the ride.

Volunteer Organisers

WNBR Adelaide has 2 local Organisers who are doing the leg work and promotion of the event in Adelaide. They will be there on the day to help the participants and tell them what is going on. The 2 local Organisers have chosen not to nominate as media liaison for the event or publicise their details here. If you would like to help in the task of organising WNBR Adelaide 2009, if you can offer help or ideas, please join the WNBR Australia and facebook discussion groups snd make contact with the others and demonstrate some initiative. It will happen, and you can be a part of it !

Legality

The laws that are relevant to public nudity in South Australia are applicable througout the state. For the relevant law in South Australia, please check this external link: SUMMARY OFFENCES ACT 1953 - SECT 23, Indecent behaviour and gross indecency. Note: indecent exposure is distinct from indecent behaviour and gross indecency so non-sexual nakedness is less likely to attract police attention. 2008 will be the first WNBR in SA so the reaction of police is uncertain. For general discussion of the topic of legality, please refer to the separate page about New South Wales Laws.

Media enquiries

Contact Marte Kinder, the WNBR Australia Coordinator and Media Liaison.

Publicity: flyers, posters, images etc

These are the current flyer, poster and BIG POSTER to be used for the WNBR Australia 2009 to help promote participation. Please print these and stick them up where people will see them. Why not colour one in and stick it to your refrigerator?
