We will be meeting outside the New Globe Theatre at 10am and commencing the ride at 11am.  There will be an after-ride party at one of the local hotels for drinks, and then a bbq dinner party at organizer Dario Western's place in the southside in Bethania from 5pm to 9pm for the Brisbane Naturists group if you wish to join that as well.
 
 
 
The WNBR is a clothing optional event, so you don't have to be naked. You can wear as little or as much clothing as you feel comfortable. You MUST, however, wear a helmet. Because of the 'willful exposure' laws in Queensland, it is illegal for males to ride fully naked.  If you do not wish to risk being arrested, you must wear at least a C-string or a G-string.  Female may ride fully nude as long as they do not display their vagina outdoors. Feel free to express your yourself (see the WNBR mission statement) with slogans, flags, body painting, even songs.  We will have a couple of professional photographers present to photograph the riders as well as some body painters.  The general public are also allowed to take photographs and footage of this event if they so desire.  There is no registration for this event, everyone is invited.  If you do not wish for somebody to photograph you individually, then approach them and let them know.

Ride details

Saturday 12th March 2016 is the Brisbane leg of the World Naked Bike Ride.

The World Naked Bike Ride is a great way in which we can peacefully expose the vulnerability of cyclists, humanity and nature in the face of cars, aggression, and consumerism.

At the end of the ride there will also be some small prizes given out for the best painted body and best decorated bike.

WNBR Mission Statement:
"We face automobile traffic with our naked bodies as the best way of defending our dignity and exposing the unique dangers faced by cyclists and pedestrians plus all the negative effects of oil, cars, war, consumerism and non-renewable energy."

Check out http://wiki.worldnakedbikeride.org/wiki/Australia for more info about WNBR generally, and past rides.

Please pass this on and invite and tell everyone you know whether it be your family, your relatives, your friends, your workmates, your church-people (hey, public nudity was okay in Biblical times too, you know!) :)

Any public, police or media enquiries need to be directed to organizer Dario Western at brisbanenaturists [a] live.com or 0437 428 859.
