List of rides > United Kingdom > Loughborough (Midlands)
A ride is planned for June 2015. Facebook page is as follows: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Loughborough-Naked-Bike-Ride-WNBR/669463439792412?ref_type=bookmark
As there are currently no Midlands based WNBR rides, I was hoping that there could be one for 2015 and created this page to draw attention to the possibility. Personally I think that Loughborough would be a great location for a ride.
In addition, I believe that there was once talk about a Nottingham ride, and as such, in order to ensure a Midlands ride goes ahead, Loughborough could be a feeder ride to the main ride in Nottingham.
It is widely believed that a ride in Loughborough would enjoy the sort of success of rides in York and Brighton. If anyone wishes to step forward to facilitate an organising collective in Loughborough please post a message on the Loughborough WNBR facebook page as follows: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Loughborough-Naked-Bike-Ride-WNBR/669463439792412?ref_type=bookmark

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.
