The first World Naked Bike Ride is going to happen on Sunday 8 June 2008. We're just getting this wikipage set up with info, so if you have questions or want to simply register your interest in participating in the ride, visit World Naked Bike Ride and register your interest.

Route

The route may be announced beforehand, otherwise, simply turn up at the assembly point for details.

Bike Hire

Bikes can be hired from several places in Sheffield, but we'll try to list some recommended hire locations shortly.

Meetings and Events

The ride planning currently takes place on the WNBR UK Yahoo! group. When there is sufficient interest, we'll probably put together a dedicated Sheffield WNBR list.

Publicity

The Sheffield ride publicity materials will be provided here for download and distribution.

Sheffield WNBR Planning Collective

The first ride is being planned without formal planning meetings but it is likely that a Sheffield Ride Planning Collective will emerge to plan the next ride (2009). Following the York, London, Cardiff, and Brighton rides style of organisation, we expect Sheffield will be organising through open planning meetings where decisions will be taken collectively. As an interim measure a few riders will act as sole organisers until there are enough people involved to arrange meetings.

That said, we have a ride coordinator who will facilitate the ride planning process whether or not there is a planning collective. Here's what the coordinator normally does:

  • answers people's questions with care and consideration
  • keeps track of who is doing what, and how far through things people are
  • deals with problems and follow the discussions at the national level
  • provides email updates to let people know what's going on
  • points out where and when help is needed
  • acts as a contact point for general enquiries (email and sometimes mobile phone)
  • maintains contact information (and keeps it secure)

Additional responsibilities that the coordinator choose to take on:

  • arrange meetings, compile agendas, provide minutes
  • ensure that the collective remains non-hierarchical but organised
  • moderate an email list for Sheffield ride planning

Media coverage

There is always plenty of TV and Radio coverage locally, plus some mention in national media. Here we will provide links to stories which are available on the internet, and apply specifically to Sheffield.
