9 June 2007

After an initial impasse with Sussex Police in which they threatened to arrest participants and charge organisers for policing costs, an agreement was reached whereby the ride could go ahead naked as planned. Around 200 cyclists (including a tall unicyclist, an inline skater, two sound systems and three tandems) took part on a cloudy but hot day.

A clothing-optional post-ride party was held on Thursday 5 July 2007, 7pm-11pm, upstairs at the Sanctuary Café.

2006

10 June 2006

160-200 cyclists (and one skateboarder) took part in Brighton & Hove's first ride, on a blazing hot day! Chief Superintendent Jeremy Paine ruled against the exposure of "rude bits" (ie: genitals), but Sussex Police were friendly and helpful in facilitating the ride.

Nick Sayers took part in the London ride, and was so inspired he decided the event must come to Brighton & Hove, its spiritual home!

2004

12 June 2004

Not far from Brighton, two riders took part in a naked bike ride in the Ashdown Forest.
