Come as bare as you dare. Nudity makes a great statement, and many of us will be completely naked, but if you're more comfortable in a little clothing, that's fine too.

Body painting and adornment, customised bikes and other creative expression are all strongly encouraged.

I'm delighted to add that a WNBR will also take place on this day in Seattle, USA! There are already too many UK rides for the June date, so perhaps July will remain the annual date for Cambridge and other cities. This will be discussed with Cambridge City Council on Monday 2nd July.

About the ride

Dress code

Come as bare as you dare. Nudity makes a great statement, and many of us will be completely naked, but if you're more comfortable in a little clothing, that's fine too. In previous years, riders have worn shorts, bras, swimwear, body paint, wigs, sunglasses etc. Most wear footwear and bring bags to carry clothes. Body painting and adornment, customised bikes and other creative expression are all strongly encouraged.

Legality

Simple nudity isn't illegal in the UK, but using nudity to intentionally cause harassment, alarm or distress may be illegal. Don't act offensively and you are very unlikely to be arrested. No UK ride has ever had an arrest.
