Ride Details

Yaay!!!! Naked daring and brave naked Bike Riders of Melbourne!!!

It is time to ride again......50 riders had an amazing positively inspiring well received ride in summer and now we ride in support of our Northern Hemisphere naked bike ride family.

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.

WINTER WONDERLAND - WORLD NAKED BIKE RIDE

This is a secret night time ride.....

  • TIME: 7pm
  • DATE: FRIDAY 6th JUNE 2008
  • WHERE: Meet at the UNION HOTEL (cnr Web & Gore Sts) Fitzroy.

Once everyone has arrived and had a few drinks and a good yak we will ride to a undisclosed location to de-brief and paint slogans and decorate our bikes and bodies in preparation for the mid-night start.

This time...we are prepared and are supported by a police liaison lawyer......protecting our rights...Guys you now have the chance to go naked!

Protest in blissful naked totally non threatening peaceful vulnerability. Inspire others to get out their bikes and join in the fun and delight of no emissions and naked freedom.

The WNBR message addresses the world wide issue of sustainable transport and advocates more environmentally friendly cycling and less polluting cars and trucks.

The WNBR is an annual clothing-optional protest ride for naturism, environmentalism, peace and the rights of cyclists to use the road safely.
