First Planning Meeting 2010

The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place in March somewhere suitably central in Cardiff. If you have any suggestion as to date, time or location please get in touch using any of the above methods. I will publish full details in the last week of February. 

If you fancy helping out in whatever way however large or small or if you just want to come along and meet some fellow riders please get in touch as it would reassure me greatly. I had a great time last year and felt so proud with the success of the ride. It also taught me some valuable skills, enhancing my CV and giving me something interesting to talk about at job interviews (and I did get the job!). Lets meet up, share some ideas and have a laugh.

Cyfarfod Cynllunio Cyntaf 2010

Bydd cyfarfod cynllunio cyntaf i ras 2010 yn cael ei gynnal ym mis Mawrth, mewn man addas a chanolog yng Nghaerdydd. Os hoffech awgrymu dyddiad, amser neu fan cyfarfod, byddem yn falch pe baech yn cysylltu drwy ddefnyddio un o'r cyfeiriadau a nodwyd. Bydd y manylion llawn yn cael eu cyhoeddi yn ystod wythnos olaf Chwefror. 

Os ydych chi'n awyddus i gynnig help, mawr neu fach, mewn unrhyw ffordd, cofiwch roi gwybod, neu os hoffech daro i mewn i gwrdd â rhai a fydd yn beicio gyda chi, cofiwch gysylltu â mi, oherwydd byddai'n galondid mawr i mi gael clywed gan bobl eraill. Ces i hwyl fawr llynedd ac ’roeddwn i'n teimlo'n hynod falch i'r daith fod mor llwyddiannus. ’Roeddwn hefyd wedi dysgu sgiliau gwerthfawr, gan ychwanegu at fy CV. Rhoddodd rywbeth diddorol imi siarad amdano mewn cyfweliadau am swyddi (a, do, fe ges i'r gwaith!). Beth am inni gwrdd i rannu syniadau ac i gael cyfle i chwerthin?''

History

2009

62 riders began the ride, according to Facebook event report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67.

2009 Ride Report - On the Saturday the 13th of June, Cardiff's second running of the World Naked Bike Ride took place. The ride, highlighting the need for a less oil dependent future, the vulnerability of cyclists in city traffic and promoting body freedom was, once again, a great success. After a slight delay with the police escort and a last minute route adjustment, the ride set of at 4:15p.m. with 62 riders. The public reception of the ride was excellent, word seemed to have gotten around that the ride was taking place and people looked like they were expecting us. After picking up five extra riders at the halfway mark we headed back through town and ended the ride with a respectable 67 riders. The media coverage of the ride was awesome. We made the BBC Wales evening news, and had good coverage in the Wales on Sunday and the South Wales Echo. A good time was had by all and there is much to look forward to with next years ride. I hope we can build up the numbers for the next one. I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010.


2008

Wales's first ever WNBR took place in Cardiff on 14 June 2008. An enthusiastic band of riders planned the ride within a relatively short time and an atmosphere of growing enthusiasm and commitment was generated. Following this hugely positive event, interest in the 2009 ride soon began spreading far and wide.

2008 Ride Report - Cardiff's first ever WNBR was a resounding success - declared by many to have been awesome! The sun shone (despite forecasts suggesting otherwise) and at 4.00 p.m. 37 riders rode out onto the streets of a busy Cardiff which was also marking Veterans Day and preparing for a Bruce Springstein concert! A wonderful mix of people sporting a range of adornments and slogans made their way from Cathays Park to Cardiff Bay and back along the city's main highways, with an outstanding response from the public who snapped up all the on-ride leaflets in no time! Media coverage was wide and positive. The police escort were efficient and friendly. Riders came from all round Cardiff and area as well as a few from Bristol, Hereford and other places. Participants applauded loudly when we reached our destination in Sophia Gardens and pledged to come back next year for an even more positive and powerful event.



Hanes

2009

62 o feicwyr a roddodd gychwyn i'r daith, yn ôl adroddiad Facebook event, ond gwnaethon ni godi rhagor o feicwyr wrth fynd ymlaen, a 67 a oedd yno ar y diwedd.

Adroddiad Taith 2009 - Ar ddydd Sadwrn, 13 Mehefin, cymerodd Caerdydd ran am yr ail dro yn Nhaith Feicio Noeth y Byd. Llwyddiant mawr oedd y daith, a oedd yn tynnu sylw at yr angen i beidio â dibynnu cymaint ar olew yn y dyfodol ac at y modd y mae'n hawdd i feicwyr gael eu hanafu yn nhraffig y ddinas, ac a oedd hefyd yn hyrwyddo rhyddid i'r corff. Wedi peth oedi wrth aros i'r heddlu ein hebrwng ac wrth newid y llwybr arfaethedig ar y funud olaf, dyma'r daith yn cychwyn am 4:15p.m. gyda 62 o feicwyr. Cafwyd ymateb gwych gan y cyhoedd; mae'n ymddangos bod y si wedi mynd ar led fod y daith yn cael ei chynnal ac ’roedd fel pe bai pobl yn ein disgwyl. Wedi codi pump o feicwyr ychwanegol hanner ffordd, dyma fynd yn ôl drwy'r dref a gorffen â 67 o feicwyr, nifer go barchus. ’Roedd diddordeb y cyfryngau yn anhygoel. ’Roedden ni ar newyddion nosweithiol BBC Wales, a rhoddwyd tipyn o sylw inni yn Wales on Sunday ac yn y South Wales Echo. Cafodd y daith sylw yn Gymraeg hefyd, er enghraifft ar y blog hwn: [1] ’Roedd pawb wedi cael hwyl, ac mae taith y flwyddyn nesaf yn rhywbeth ’rydyn ni'n gwir edrych ymlaen ato. Gobeithio y gallwn ddenu nifer mwy y tro nesaf. ’Rwy'n credu bod nifer o bobl newydd am ymuno â ni, felly ’rydyn ni ar y blaen eisoes i 2010.

2008

Cynhaliwyd Taith Feicio Noeth y Byd yng Nghaerdydd am y tro cyntaf ar 14 Mehefin, 2008. Cafodd y daith ei chynllunio o fewn amser eithaf byr gan griw brwdfrydig o feicwyr, a mynd o nerth i nerth a wnaeth y teimlad o frwdfrydfedd ac o ymroddiad yn eu plith. Dyma achlysur a oedd yn ysbrydoli, ac yn ei sgil hynny dechreuodd diddordeb yn nhaith 2009 fynd ar led.

Adroddiad Taith 2008 - Llwyddiant ysgubol oedd Taith Feicio Noeth y Byd pan gafodd ei chynnal gyntaf yng Nghaerdydd, yn daith gwbl anhygoel yn ôl sawl un! ’Roedd yr haul yn tywynnu, er gwaethaf y rhagolygon a awgrymai na fyddai'n braf, ac am 4.00 p.m., dyma 37 o feicwyr yn mentro allan i strydoedd prysur y brifddinas, a'r hwrlibwrli cymaint yn fwy am mai Diwrnod yr Hen Filwyr oedd hi a phobl eraill yn paratoi at gyngerdd gan Bruce Springstein! Dyma'r gymysgfa ryfeddol o bobl, wedi eu haddurno mewn amryw ffyrdd a chan wahanol sloganau, yn ymlwybro o Barc Cathays i Fae Caerdydd ac yn ôl wedyn drwy briffyrdd y ddinas. Cafwyd ymateb bendigedig gan y cyhoedd, a nhwthau wedi cipio pob un o'r taflenni ar y daith mewn dim o dro! Rhoddwyd sylw i'r achlysur, mewn ffordd gadarnhaol, mewn sawl man ar y cyfryngau. ’Roedd yr heddlu a fu'n hebrwng y beicwyr yn effeithlon ac yn gyfeillgar. ’Roedd y beicwyr a gymerodd ran yn dod o Gaerdydd a'r fro yn bennaf, ond ’roedd ychydig o Fryste, o Henffordd ac o fannau eraill. Curo eu dwylo'n frwd a wnaeth y beicwyr wedi cyrraedd pen ein taith yng Ngerddi Sophia, ac addo mynd yn ôl ymhen y flwyddyn i fwynhau achlysur mwy cadarnhaol a grymus byth.

About the ride

Assembly point

The 2008 & 2009 assembly point was in a quiet, enclosed area with grass and trees, easily found to the rear of the National Museum of Wales. The Museum is located in the Civic Centre in Cathays Park, immediately next door to City Hall, with its distinctive tower. The area in question is between Park Place and Museum Avenue. Here is a map of the assembly location. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010.

Dress code

Come as bare as you dare. Nudity makes a great statement, and many of us will be completely naked again this year - but if you're more comfortable in a little clothing, that's fine too. On previous rides, riders wore shorts, bras, swimwear, body paint, head-dresses, wigs, sunglasses etc. Most wore footwear and brought bags to carry clothes. Body painting and adornment, customised bikes, portable seed-trays and other creative expression are all strongly encouraged.

Route

Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route

Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue).

Setting off at 4PM - Form up on the path facing Museum Avenue. Left into Museum Avenue.

Museum Avenue, City Road, left into King Edward VII Avenue. Gorsedd Gardens Road, right into Park Place. Greyfriars Street, the Friary, right into Queens Street. St. John Street, Working Street, The Hayes, Hayes Bridge Road, Bute Street, Herbert Street, Lloyd George Avenue. Onto cycle path (left hand pavement) after Hemingway Road.

Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd.

Set off along the front of the Pier Head Building, returning past the front of the Millennium Centre. Left across the forecourt to the crossing giving access to the westbound carriageway of Lloyd George Avenue. Across the crossing and north up Lloyd George Avenue. Left into Herbert Street, ahead into Callaghan Square, St. Mary Street, High Street, Castle Street, Cowbridge Road East. Onto the cycle path (left hand pavement) over Cardiff Bridge, concluding in Sophia Gardens. Riders are advised bring a bag or pannier to carry clothes and possessions.

Legality

The police facilitated both the 2008 and 2009 rides; riders found the officers most helpful, and they in turn fully acknowledged our right to demonstrate in our chosen manner saying that they were impressed with the public reaction last year. One of the veterans on the Veteran Day celebrations 2008 actually told the police that he thought that it was marvelous. To put it simply, simple nudity isn't illegal in the UK, but using nudity intentionally to cause harassment, alarm or distress may be illegal. Don't act in an offensive or lewd manner and you are not going to get arrested.

Public transport

The 2010 ride will start within easy cycling distance of Cardiff Central Rail Station, served by frequent trains from various parts of Wales and England.

Am y daith

Man ymgynnull

Yn 2008 ac yn 2009, man caeedig, tawel, glaswelltog a choediog oedd y man ymgynnull, un hawdd cael hyd iddo y tu ôl i'r Amgueddfa Gendlaethol. Mae'r Amgueddfa yng nghanol y ddinas, ym Mharc Cathays, yn union drws nesaf i Neuadd y Ddinas, â'i thŵr adnabyddus. Mae'r man o dan sylw rhwng Plas y Parc a Choedlan yr Amgueddfa. Dyma fap map of the assembly location. Dyma'r man y bwriadwn gwrdd eto yn 2010.

Cod gwisgo

Dewch mor noeth ag y mentrwch. Mae noethni'n gwneud datganiad gwych, a bydd llawer ohonon ni'n gwbl noethlymun eto eleni. Eto i gyd, os teimlwch yn fwy cyfforddus yn gwisgo ychydig ddillad, mae hynny'n hollol iawn hefyd. Ar y teithiau blaenorol, bu rhai'n gwisgo siorts, bronglwm, dillad nofio, penwisgoedd, gwallt gosod, sbectol haul ac yn y blaen, a rhai'n peintio eu cyrff. ’Roedd y rhan fwyaf yn gwisgo esgidiau ac wedi dod â bag i gario eu dillad. ’Rydyn ni'n frwd o blaid peintio ac addurno'r corff, addasu beiciau at yr achlysur, dod â hambyrddau hadau hawdd eu cludo a ffyrdd creadigol eraill o dynnu sylw.
