Join us for a naked lunch, a seaside bike ride in the buff, a paddle in the sea and a naturist beach picnic!

Brighton's fifth World Naked Bike Ride will probably take place around the weekend of 11-13 June 2010 (possibly Sunday 13 June 2010 – TBC). An astonishing 700 riders took part in 2009 (up from 400, 180 and 160 in previous years). More are expected in 2010. As of the 2007 ride, following negotiations with Sussex Police, full nudity is permitted at the event.

The event in 2009 formed the finale to a weekend of seven UK rides, including Southampton and London the two days before, which allowed people to take part in three southern rides!

The ride also took place during Bike Week (14-21 June 2009) and Brighton's Year of Walking & Cycling. It also celebrates Brighton's status as a Cycle Demonstration Town.

If you're interested in riding or getting involved, please join our Yahoo! discussion group. You can also sign up to our event listings at Facebook and Upcoming.

Please donate to the WNBR UK Fund

The UK World Naked Bike Ride fund meets the cost of insuring rides
across the UK, and provides local organisers with money for
poster/flyer printing, advertising, ride equipment etc.
