=== First Planning Meeting 2011 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2011 ride will take place at the Rummer Tavern at 7PM on Thursday the 24th of March, Duke Street (opposite the castle). We'll be the ones with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. We'll be updating the wiki after the meeting so keep an eye open for further information at the end of March.<br />
<br />
=== Second Planning Meeting 2011 ===<br />
<br />
The second planning meeting will take place on Thursday, April 21, 2011 at 7:00pm in the Rummer Tavern (Opposite the Castle), Cardiff, Duke Street (opposite the castle). Once again I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. We also hope to have some flyers and posters available for anyone who would like to help spread the word.<br />
<br />
=== Final Planning Meeting 2011 ===<br />
<br />
The final planning meeting of 2011 will take place in late May in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). Once again I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. We will be discussing promotions and press releases, posters and flyers will be available, if you would like to help out in this area or just meet up with your fellow riders for a drink please feel free to come along and bring a friend! <br />

== History ==<br />
=== 2010 ===<br />
<br />
'''2010 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the 12th of June, Cardiff's third 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. Full report coming soon!<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008, 2009 &amp; 2010 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2011.<br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
The route of Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2011 is still being planned. However it will broadly follow previous rides routes Form the Civic Centre to the Bay and back into town, ending as always in Sophia Gardens. This year we are looking to extend the ride with a ride around the park, assuming that the weather is good! Hopefully it will make the end of the ride a little less abrupt that previous years, where we have simply cycled in to the park and ended the ride. Last year, unfortunately, we were forced cut out the short distance that we usually do on Queen Street following a number of complaints from other cyclists who don't see why we should be allowed to cycle on Queen Street whilst they are banned from doing so. We will be trying to get this portion of the route reinstated this year. It's a shame that fellow cyclists should be so petty minded. Proof, if it were ever needed, that nobody is perfect! Below is the 2010 route as an example for new riders. We'll post the 2011 route as soon as possible.<br />
<br />
<br />
Last Years Route - <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />
Setting off at 4PM - Form up on the path facing Museum Avenue. Left into Museum Avenue. <br />
<br />
Museum Avenue, City Hall Road, left into King Edward VII Avenue. Gorsedd Gardens Road, right into Park Place. Greyfriars Street, North Road. Duke Street, Castle Street, Westgate Street, St Mary Street, Callaghan Square, Bute Street, Herbert Street, Lloyd George Avenue. Onto cycle path (left hand pavement) after Hemingway Road. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />
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, right into Mill Lane, The Hayes, Trinity Street, St. Johns Street, left into Duke Street, Castle Street, Cowbridge Road East. Onto the cycle path (left hand pavement) over Cardiff Bridge and into Sophia Gardens.<br />
<br />
This year we will be concluding with a lap of Sophia Gardens to enable a disabled cyclist to join us and will be finishing up as per usual near the Mochyn Du pub where we can get dressed and head for a well earned pint! <br />
<br />
Riders are advised bring a bag or pannier to carry clothes and possessions.<br />
<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
The police have facilitated all previous 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.<br />
<br />
=== Photography Policy ===<br />
2011 sees Leah Sian join the team as our official photographer and as such she has created a photographic policy based on that used by the London ride setting out the terms under which she will operate. It is hoped that any riders or members of the press wishing to photograph the ride will also feel able to abide by it's terms. <br />
<br />
WORLD NAKED BIKE RIDE - CARDIFF<br />
PHOTOGRAPHIC POLICY<br />
<br />
Photographing and filming policy<br />
<br />
This is the first policy written by members of the World Naked Bike Ride - Cardiff.<br />
<br />
2011 POLICY<br />
<br />
Photography is encouraged throughout the ride; it is a means of promoting the message propagated through banners and body paint. Being in a public place, the law does not often support individuals but rather photographers rights, during this ride, there are some restrictions to photographs and videos. This policy is intended to discourage any inconsiderate photography which may take place. We wish to create a safe and supportive environment for all riders.<br />
All photographers present at the ride must abide by this policy. Those who don't will be asked to leave. This includes any riders and press. This policy will be available to anyone to download. <br />
<br />
PHOTOGRAPHERS BEHAVIOUR<br />
<br />
Photographers are expected to behave in a respectful, friendly and reasonable manner at all times. If you make any rider uncomfortable, you will be required to leave the assembly/ride area. <br />
<br />
AT THE ASSEMBLY AREA (before and after the ride)<br />
<br />
Ask permission before photographing a rider<br />
<br />
No photos of people dressing, or undressing, being painted are permitted unless requested by riders<br />
<br />
No photos of people in the designated no photo zone<br />
<br />
DURING THE RIDE<br />
<br />
No close-up photos without consent from the rider<br />
<br />
ENFORCING THE PHOTO POLICY (by you the riders)<br />
<br />
Our hope is that all riders will be aware of the policy and feel comfortable enough to step forward to debate the policy. If any riders should wish not to be photographed at the event, there are some measures you are able to take to prevent this happening.<br />
<br />
1) Contact the World Naked BikeRide Cardiff photographer - Leah Sian at LeahSian@live.co.uk or talk to her in person at one of the meetings. She will make sure to avoid you at the event. If you contact by email it would be beneficial to get a head shot to identify you at the event. <br />
<br />
2) At World Naked Bike Ride London riders often create a "Photo Policy Enforcement Board" a sign to attach to card with an example of the policy and a sign that says, "This Photo was taken without permission". This can be downloaded from the following link:<br />
http://wiki.worldnakedbikeride.org/images/8/84/London2008photopolicyboard.pdf<br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
The 2011 ride will start within easy cycling distance of Cardiff Central Rail Station, served by frequent trains from various parts of Wales and England. <br />
<br />
=== Signing up ===<br />
It's not essential to sign up for the ride - you can just turn up on the day - but it does help to get an idea of anticipated numbers.

== Publicity ==<br />
=== Posters & Flyers ===<br />
The designs for the 2010 posters and flyers have been done and copies will be available at planning meetings for anyone who would like to help publicize the ride or if you ask nicely and live, work or study in Cardiff I might be able to drop some round to you. If you live further afield and e-mail me I can e-mail you back with PDF's so you can print off some of your own or if you have a really great idea for somewhere to advertise, such as a bike shop or mountain biking centre, I might be able to stretch to a stamp. <br />
Please remember that Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride only receives very limited funding for printing costs from World Naked Bike Ride UK and use those posters and flyers wisely or better still help us out by printing/photocopying your own (at work maybe!), thanks.<br />
<br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2011 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2011 ride will take place at the Rummer Tavern at 7PM on Thursday the 24th of March, Duke Street (opposite the castle). We'll be the ones with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. We'll be updating the wiki after the meeting so keep an eye open for further information at the end of March.<br />
<br />
=== Second Planning Meeting 2011 ===<br />
<br />
The second planning meeting will take place on Thursday, April 21, 2011 at 7:00pm in the Rummer Tavern (Opposite the Castle), Cardiff, Duke Street (opposite the castle). Once again I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. We also hope to have some flyers and posters available for anyone who would like to help spread the word.<br />
<br />
=== Final Planning Meeting 2011 ===<br />
<br />
The final planning meeting of 2011 will take place in late May in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). Once again I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table.

== History ==<br />
=== 2010 ===<br />
<br />
'''2010 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the 12th of June, Cardiff's third 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. Full report coming soon!<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008, 2009 &amp; 2010 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2011.<br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
The route of Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2011 is still being planned. However it will broadly follow previous rides routes Form the Civic Centre to the Bay and back into town, ending as always in Sophia Gardens. This year we are looking to extend the ride with a ride around the park, assuming that the weather is good! Hopefully it will make the end of the ride a little less abrupt that previous years, where we have simply cycled in to the park and ended the ride. Last year, unfortunately, we were forced cut out the short distance that we usually do on Queen Street following a number of complaints from other cyclists who don't see why we should be allowed to cycle on Queen Street whilst they are banned from doing so. We will be trying to get this portion of the route reinstated this year. It's a shame that fellow cyclists should be so petty minded. Proof, if it were ever needed, that nobody is perfect! Below is the 2010 route as an example for new riders. We'll post the 2011 route as soon as possible.<br />
<br />
<br />
Last Years Route - <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />
Setting off at 4PM - Form up on the path facing Museum Avenue. Left into Museum Avenue. <br />
<br />
Museum Avenue, City Hall Road, left into King Edward VII Avenue. Gorsedd Gardens Road, right into Park Place. Greyfriars Street, North Road. Duke Street, Castle Street, Westgate Street, St Mary Street, Callaghan Square, Bute Street, Herbert Street, Lloyd George Avenue. Onto cycle path (left hand pavement) after Hemingway Road. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />
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, right into Mill Lane, The Hayes, Trinity Street, St. Johns Street, left into Duke Street, Castle Street, Cowbridge Road East. Onto the cycle path (left hand pavement) over Cardiff Bridge and into Sophia Gardens.<br />
<br />
This year we will be concluding with a lap of Sophia Gardens to enable a disabled cyclist to join us and will be finishing up as per usual near the Mochyn Du pub where we can get dressed and head for a well earned pint! <br />
<br />
Riders are advised bring a bag or pannier to carry clothes and possessions.<br />
<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
The police have facilitated all previous 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.<br />
<br />
=== Photography Policy ===<br />
2011 sees Leah Sian join the team as our official photographer and as such she has created a photographic policy based on that used by the London ride setting out the terms under which she will operate. It is hoped that any riders or members of the press wishing to photograph the ride will also feel able to abide by it's terms. <br />
<br />
WORLD NAKED BIKE RIDE - CARDIFF<br />
PHOTOGRAPHIC POLICY<br />
<br />
Photographing and filming policy<br />
This is the first policy written by members of the World Naked Bike Ride - Cardiff.<br />
<br />
2011 POLICY<br />
<br />
Photography is encouraged throughout the ride; it is a means of promoting the message propagated through banners and body paint. Being in a public place, the law does not often support individuals but rather photographers rights, during this ride, there are some restrictions to photographs and videos. This policy is intended to discourage any inconsiderate photography which may take place. We wish to create a safe and supportive environment for all riders.<br />
All photographers present at the ride must abide by this policy. Those who don't will be asked to leave. This includes any riders and press. This policy will be available to anyone to download. <br />
<br />
PHOTOGRAPHERS BEHAVIOUR<br />
<br />
Photographers are expected to behave in a respectful, friendly and reasonable manner at all times. If you make any rider uncomfortable, you will be required to leave the assembly/ride area. <br />
<br />
AT THE ASSEMBLY AREA (before and after the ride)<br />
<br />
Ask permission before photographing a rider<br />
No photos of people dressing, or undressing, being painted are permitted unless requested by riders<br />
No photos of people in the designated no photo zone<br />
<br />
DURING THE RIDE<br />
<br />
No close-up photos without consent from the rider<br />
<br />
ENFORCING THE PHOTO POLICY (by you the riders)<br />
<br />
Our hope is that all riders will be aware of the policy and feel comfortable enough to step forward to debate the policy. If any riders should wish not to be photographed at the event, there are some measures you are able to take to prevent this happening.<br />
1) Contact the World Naked BikeRide Cardiff photographer - Leah Sian at LeahSian@live.co.uk or talk to her in person at one of the meetings. She will make sure to avoid you at the event. If you contact by email it would be beneficial to get a head shot to identify you at the event. <br />
2) At World Naked Bike Ride London riders often create a "Photo Policy Enforcement Board" a sign to attach to card with an example of the policy and a sign that says, "This Photo was taken without permission". This can be downloaded from the following link:<br />
http://wiki.worldnakedbikeride.org/images/8/84/London2008photopolicyboard.pdf<br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
The 2011 ride will start within easy cycling distance of Cardiff Central Rail Station, served by frequent trains from various parts of Wales and England. <br />
<br />
=== Signing up ===<br />

== Publicity ==<br />
=== Posters & Flyers ===<br />
The designs for the 2010 posters and flyers have been done and copies will be available at planning meetings for anyone who would like to help publicize the ride or if you ask nicely and live, work or study in Cardiff I might be able to drop some round to you.

Please remember that Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride only receives very limited funding for printing costs from World Naked Bike Ride UK and use those posters and flyers wisely or better still help us out by printing/photocopying your own (at work maybe!), thanks.<br />

Bydd y cyfarfod cynllunio cyntaf ar gyfer taith 2011 yn cael ei gynnal yn Nhafarn y Rummer, Heol y Dug, Caerdydd (gyferbyn â'r castell), am 7pm, ar ddydd Iau, 24 Mawrth. http://maps.google.com/maps/place?rls=ig&hl=gd&source=hp&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=rummer+tavarn+cardiff&fb=1&hq=rummer+tavarn&hnear=cardiff&cid=6583587023150160969 Ar y bwrdd, bydd gennym faner fawr binc TFNB (WNBR), felly byddwn yn hawdd ein hadnbaod. <br />
<br />
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? Caiff y wiki ei ddiweddaru wedi'r cyfarfod, felly gwyliwch am ragor o fanylion tua diwedd mis Mawrth.<br />
<br />
=== Yr Ail Gyfarfod Cynllunio 2010 ===<br />
<br />
Cynhelir yr ail gyfarfod cynllunio fin nos ar ryw ddydd Iau ym mis Ebrill. (Hyn i’w gadarnhau. Rhowch wybod os oes dewis ddyddiadau gennych chi). Bydd Dave Granville o Heddlu’r De yn bresennol i drafod newidiadau efallai y bydd angen inni eu gwneud i lwybr y daith oherwydd gwaith ar y ffordd yng nghanol y ddinas ym mis Mehefin. Bydd hefyd yn ateb cwestiynau eraill am ddull yr heddlu o drin y daith, os bydd rhai’n codi. ’Rwy’n gobeithio y bydd taflenni a phosteri gen i erbyn hynny i bawb sydd yn awyddus i ledaenu’r neges.<br />
<br />
=== Cyfarfod Cynllunio Terfynol 2010 ===<br />
<br />
Bydd cyfarfod cynllunio olaf 2010 yn cael ei gynnal am 7 yr hwyr ar ddydd Iau, 27 Mai, yn Nhafarn y Rummer, Heol y Dug (gyferbyn â’r castell). Unwaith eto, fi fydd yr un â baner binc llachar Taith Feicio Noeth y Byd ar y bwrdd. Byddwn ni’n trafod hysbysebion a datganiadau i’r wasg, a bydd posteri a thaflenni ar gael. Os hoffech roi help llaw yn yr ardal hon, neu os nad ydych ond am gwrdd i gael diod gyda rhai o’ch cyd-feicwyr, coifwch fod croeso ichi ac y gallwch ddod â ffrind hefyd! <br />

<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 o feicwyr a roddodd gychwyn i'r daith, yn ôl adroddiad [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event], ond gwnaethon ni godi rhagor o feicwyr wrth fynd ymlaen, a 67 a oedd yno ar y diwedd.<br />
<br />
'''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. ’Roedd 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 gyda 67 o feicwyr, nifer eithaf parchus. ’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: [http://www.bywynyrardd.net/elgg/catrindoyle/weblog/34.html] ’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.<br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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 sgil hynny dechreuodd diddordeb yn nhaith 2009 fynd ar led i wahanol gyfeiriadau.<br />
<br />
'''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.<br />
<br />
== Am y daith ==<br />
<br />
=== Man ymgynnull ===<br />
<br />
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 yn y ganolfan ddinesig, 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'' [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. ''Dyma'r man y bwriadwn gwrdd eto yn 2010.<br />
<br />
=== Cod gwisgo ===<br />
<br />
Dewch mor noeth ag y mentrwch. Mae noethni'n gwneud datganiad gwych, a bydd llawer ohonon ni'n noeth lymun gorn eto eleni. Eto i gyd, os teimlwch yn fwy cyfforddus ag ychydig ddillad amdanoch, mae hynny'n hollol iawn hefyd. Ar y teithiau blaenorol, bu rhai'n gwisgo siorts, bronglwm, dillad nofio, penwisg, 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.<br />
<br />
=== Llwybr Diwygiedig y Daith 2010 ===<br />
Newidiwyd llwybr y daith eleni gan fod gwaith ar rai o ffyrdd canol y ddinas ym mis Mehefin. Bydd Heol y Santes Fair a’r Stryd Fawr yn cael eu gadael o’r naill ochr a chroeswn yr Ais ddwywaith. Gwaetha’r modd, rhaid inni hefyd dorri allan rhan fach o’r daith arferol ar hyd Heol y Frenhines, am fod beicwyr eraill yn cwyno am ein bod ni’n cael beicio yno a hwythau’n cael eu gwahardd.<br />
<br />
Newid: Mae’n debyg mai traffig un ffordd sydd yn yr Ais, felly rhaid inni fynd ar hyd Heol y Porth, yn hytrach na dilyn y ffordd honno. <br />
<br />
Llwybr Taith 2010: Man Ymgynnull – Parc Cathays – y llecyn glaswelltog gerllaw Prif Adeilad y Brifysgol (wedi ei ffinio gan Blas y Parc a Rhodfa’r Amgueddfa). <br />
<br />
Gan gychwyn am 4pm, byddwn yn ymdrefnu ar y llwybr sydd yn wynebu’r Rhodfa’r Amgueddfa. <br />
<br />
Rhodfa’r Amgueddfa, Heol Neuadd y Ddinas, i’r chwith i mewn i Rodfa’r Brenin Edward VII. Heol Gerddi’r Orsedd, i’r dde i mewn i Blas y Parc. Heol y Brodyr Llwydion, Heol y Gogledd. Heol y Dug, Heol y Castell, Heol y Porth, Heol y Santes Fair, Sgwâr Callaghan, Heol Bute, Heol Herbert, Rhodfa Lloyd George, . <br />
<br />
Ar ôl Heol Hemmingway awn ar y llwybr beiciau (y palmant chwith). Ar draws y groesfan i fynd heibio i du blaen Canolfan y Mileniwm, y tu ôl i Adeilad Pen y Pier. Oedwn o flaen y Senedd.<br />
<br />
Cychwynnwn wedyn a mynd heibio i du blaen Adeilad Pen y Pier, gan ddychwelyd heibio i du blaen Canolfan y Mileniwm. I’r chwith ar draws y cwrt blaen i’r groesfan sydd yn arwain i lôn sydd yn mynd i’r gorllewin ar Rodfa Lloyd George. <br />
<br />
Ar draws y groesfan ac yna i’r gogledd ar hyd Rhodfa Lloyd George. I’r chwith i mewn i Heol Herbert, ymlaen i Sgwâr Callaghan, Heol y Santes Fair, i’r dde i Lôn y Felin, yr Ais, Heol y Drindod, Heol Sant Ioan. I’r chwith i mewn i Heol y Dug, Heol y Castell, Dwyrain Heol y Bont-faen. Awn ar y llwybr beicio (palmant chwith) ar draws Pont Caerdydd ac i mewn i Erddi Sophia.<br />
<br />
Eleni, yn ddiweddglo, awn o amgylch Gerddi Sophia er mwyn i feiciwr anabl ymuno â ni. Fel arfer, cawn orffen ger tafarn y Mochyn Du, lle y gallwn wisgo a mynd am beint haeddiannol!<br />
<br />
Cynghorir beicwyr i ddod â bag neu â basged feic i ddal eu dillad a’u heiddo<br />
<br />
=== Cyfreithlondeb ===<br />
<br />
’Roedd yr heddlu wedi hwyluso'r teithiau yn 2008 ac yn 2009; cafodd y beicwyr fod y swyddogion yn bur gymwynasgar, ac ’roedden nhw'n cydnabod yn llawn ein hawl i wrthdystio yn ein dewis ddull ein hunain. Yn 2009, dywedon nhw hefyd fod ymateb y cyhoedd wedi rhoi argraff arnyn nhw y tro cynt. Yn 2008, ’roedd un o'r hen filwyr a oedd yn cymryd rhan yn nathliadau Diwrnod yr Hen Filwyr wedi dweud wrth yr heddlu ei fod yn meddwl ei bod yn ardderchog. Ac egluro'r sefyllfa mewn ffordd syml, nid yw noethni ei hun yn erbyn y gyfraith yn y Deyrnas Unedig, ond gall fod yn anghyfreithlon defnyddio noethni gyda'r bwriad o aflonyddu neu er achosi braw neu ofid. Os na fyddwch yn ymddwyn mewn ffordd dramgwyddus neu anweddus, ni fyddwch yn eich cael restio.<br />
<br />
=== Cludiant Cyhoeddus ===<br />
<br />
Bydd taith 2010 yn cychwyn o fewn pellter beicio rhwydd o Orsaf Ganolog Caerdydd, lle y ceir gwasanaeth trenau da er mwyn teithio o rannau eraill o Gymru ac o Loegr.<br />

Cofiwch na fydd Taith Feicio Noeth y Byd, Caerdydd, ond yn derbyn hyn a hyn o arian, swm go fach, tuag at gostau argraffu, oddi wrth WNBR y Deyrnas Unedig, felly defnyddiwch y posteri a’r taflenni gyda gofal, neu’n well byth, cefnogwch ni drwy argraffu / llungopïo eich rhai eich hunain (efallai yn y gwaith!) – diolch.<br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2011 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2011 ride will take place at the Rummer Tavern at 7PM on Thursday the 24th of March, Duke Street (opposite the castle). We'll be the ones with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. We'll be updating the wiki after the meeting so keep an eye open for further information at the end of March.<br />
<br />
=== Second Planning Meeting 2011 ===<br />

The second planning meeting will take place in late April at the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). Once again I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. We also hope to have some flyers and posters available for anyone who would like to help spread the word. <br />
<br />
=== Final Planning Meeting 2011 ===<br />
<br />
The final planning meeting of 2011 will take place in late May in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle).

== History ==<br />
=== 2010 ===<br />
<br />
'''2010 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the 12th of June, Cardiff's third 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. Full report coming soon!<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008, 2009 &amp; 2010 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2011.<br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
The route of Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2011 is still being planned. However it will broadly follow previous rides routes Form the Civic Centre to the Bay and back into town, ending as always in Sophia Gardens. This year we are looking to extend the ride with a ride around the park, assuming that the weather is good! Hopefully it will make the end of the ride a little less abrupt that previous years, where we have simply cycled in to the park and ended the ride. Last year, unfortunately, we were forced cut out the short distance that we usually do on Queens Street following a number of complaints from other cyclists who don't see why we should be allowed to cycle on Queen Street whilst they are banned from doing so. We will be trying to get this portion of the route reinstated this year. It's a shame that fellow cyclists should be so petty minded. Proof, if it were ever needed, that nobody is perfect! Below is the 2010 route as an example for new riders. We'll post the 2011 route as soon as possible.<br />
<br />
<br />
Last Years Route - <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />
Setting off at 4PM - Form up on the path facing Museum Avenue. Left into Museum Avenue. <br />
<br />
Museum Avenue, City Hall Road, left into King Edward VII Avenue. Gorsedd Gardens Road, right into Park Place. Greyfriars Street, North Road. Duke Street, Castle Street, Westgate Street, St Mary Street, Callaghan Square, Bute Street, Herbert Street, Lloyd George Avenue. Onto cycle path (left hand pavement) after Hemingway Road. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />
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, right into Mill Lane, The Hayes, Trinity Street, St. Johns Street, left into Duke Street, Castle Street, Cowbridge Road East. Onto the cycle path (left hand pavement) over Cardiff Bridge and into Sophia Gardens.<br />
<br />
This year we will be concluding with a lap of Sophia Gardens to enable a disabled cyclist to join us and will be finishing up as per usual near the Mochyn Du pub where we can get dressed and head for a well earned pint! <br />
<br />
Riders are advised bring a bag or pannier to carry clothes and possessions.<br />
<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
The police have facilitated all previous 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.<br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
The 2011 ride will start within easy cycling distance of Cardiff Central Rail Station, served by frequent trains from various parts of Wales and England. <br />
<br />
=== Signing up ===<br />
It's not essential to sign up for the ride - you can just turn up on the day - but it does help to get an idea of anticipated numbers.

<br />
== Events ==<br />
In December 2007 Johnny Zapatos's film about the London WNBR in 2005 was given a showing at the Chapter Centre. The film provoked a good deal of positive discussion. To contribute ideas for other showings, or ideas for any other events anywhere in Wales, please visit the [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ WNBR Cardiff/Caerdydd] Yahoo! group.<br />
<br />
== Planning ==<br />
Cardiff riders are underway with planning the 2011 WNBR! Please get in touch via [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ WNBR Cardiff/Caerdydd] or [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-uk/ WNBR UK] Yahoo! groups if you plan to ride or if you are able to help. <br />
<br />
=== Planning meetings ===<br />
Whether involved in planning previous years, or a new rider for 2011, you are very welcome to join in the preparations this year. If you would like to contribute, please come to the initial meeting, or post a message on the [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ wnbr-cardiff/caerdydd Yahoo!] group.

<br />
== Publicity ==<br />
=== Posters & Flyers ===<br />
The designs for the 2010 posters and flyers have been done and copies will be available at planning meetings for anyone who would like to help publicize the ride or if you ask nicely and live, work or study in Cardiff I might be able to drop some round to you. If you live further afield and e-mail me I can e-mail you back with PDF's so you can print off some of your own or if you have a really great idea for somewhere to advertise, such as a bike shop or mountain biking centre, I might be able to stretch to a stamp. <br />
Please remember that Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride only receives very limited funding for printing costs from World Naked Bike Ride UK and use those posters and flyers wisely or better still help us out by printing/photocopying your own (at work maybe!), thanks.<br />

== History ==<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Route - The route for this years ride has been altered to take account of roadworks in the City Centre in June. We will miss out St. Marys Street and High Street and traverse the Hayes twice. We are also, unfortunately, having to cut out the short distance that we usually do on Queens Street following a number of complaints from other cyclists who don't see why we should be allowed to cycle on Queen Street whilst they are banned from doing so. <br />
<br />
Alteration - Turns out that The Hayes is one way only so we have to go down Westgate Street instead <br />
<br />
This Years Route - <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />
Setting off at 4PM - Form up on the path facing Museum Avenue. Left into Museum Avenue. <br />
<br />
Museum Avenue, City Hall Road, left into King Edward VII Avenue. Gorsedd Gardens Road, right into Park Place. Greyfriars Street, North Road. Duke Street, Castle Street, Westgate Street, St Mary Street, Callaghan Square, Bute Street, Herbert Street, Lloyd George Avenue. Onto cycle path (left hand pavement) after Hemingway Road. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />
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, right into Mill Lane, The Hayes, Trinity Street, St. Johns Street, left into Duke Street, Castle Street, Cowbridge Road East. Onto the cycle path (left hand pavement) over Cardiff Bridge and into Sophia Gardens.<br />
<br />
This year we will be concluding with a lap of Sophia Gardens to enable a disabled cyclist to join us and will be finishing up as per usual near the Mochyn Du pub where we can get dressed and head for a well earned pint! <br />
<br />
Riders are advised bring a bag or pannier to carry clothes and possessions.<br />
<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Signing up ===<br />
It's not essential to sign up for the ride - you can just turn up on the day - but it does help to get an idea of anticipated numbers.

== Events ==<br />
In December 2007 Johnny Zapatos's film about the London WNBR in 2005 was given a showing at the Chapter Centre. The film provoked a good deal of positive discussion. To contribute ideas for other showings, or ideas for any other events anywhere in Wales, please visit the [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ WNBR Cardiff/Caerdydd] Yahoo! group.<br />
<br />
== Planning ==<br />
Cardiff riders are underway with planning the 2010 WNBR! Please get in touch via [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ WNBR Cardiff/Caerdydd] or [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-uk/ WNBR UK] Yahoo! groups if you plan to ride or if you are able to help. <br />
<br />
=== Planning meetings ===<br />
Whether involved in planning previous years, a 2008 or 2009 participant, or a new rider for 2010, you are very welcome to join in the preparations this year. If you would like to contribute, please come to the initial meeting, or post a message on the [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ wnbr-cardiff/caerdydd Yahoo!] group.

<br />
== Publicity ==<br />
=== Posters & Flyers ===<br />
The designs for the 2010 posters and flyers have been done and copies will be available at planning meetings for anyone who would like to help publicize the ride or if you ask nicely and live, work or study in Cardiff I might be able to drop some round to you. If you live further afield and e-mail me I can e-mail you back with PDF's so you can print off some of your own or if you have a really great idea for somewhere to advertise, such as a bike shop or mountain biking centre, I might be able to stretch to a stamp. <br />
Please remember that Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride only receives very limited funding for printing costs from World Naked Bike Ride UK and use those posters and flyers wisely or better still help us out by printing/photocopying your own (at work maybe!), thanks.<br />
<br />
=== Slogan Suggestions === <br />
''Gwyn fyd byd gwyrdd''<br>A blessed world is a green world<br />
<br />
''Diogelwch nid galar''<br>Safety not mourning<br />
<br />
''Dros y byd, beicio ac ynni glân''<br>For the world, cycling and clean energy<br />
<br />

<br />
''Herio'r byd ar feic i'r Bae''<br>Challenging the world on a bike to the Bay<br />
<br />
Open your mind & ride! ''Agor dy feddwl a cher!'' <br />
<br />
<br />
::''Unwn oll a mentro'n noeth - ar ein beics''<br />
::::''Herio'n byd a'i gyfoeth;''<br />
:::''Â'n hynni, nid nwy annoeth,''<br />
:::''Rhown ein barn ar yr hin boeth.''<br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place on Sunday 21st of March at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place on Sunday 21st of March at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Second Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
The second planning meeting will take place on Thursday the 15th of April at 6pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). Once again I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. Dave Granville from South Wales Police will be attending to discuss changes we may need to make to the route due to roadworks in the city centre in June and to answer any other questions people may have about the policing of the ride. I also hope to have some flyers and posters available for anyone who would like to help spread the word. <br />
<br />
=== Final Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
The final planning meeting of 2010 will take place on Thursday the 27th of May at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). Once again I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. We will be discussing promotions and press releases, posters and flyers will be available, if you would like to help out in this area or just meet up with your fellow riders for a drink please feel free to come along and bring a friend! <br />
<br />

{{Ride location next ride|Date= Saturday 12th June 2010|Time= Gather at 3PM to get ready, paint yourself, decorate your bike etc. Setting off at 4PM |Location=Park Place, grassed area to rear of [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h National Museum] and adjacent to [http://www.cardiff.ac.uk/locations/maps/ Cardiff University Main Building]. See below for directions.}}<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route - The route for this years ride may have to be altered to take account of roadworks in the City Centre in June. Dave Granville, events coordinator for South Wales Police, is in touch with the council on our behalf and will be attending the April organizing meeting so we can work something out together. If you would like to make any suggestions or have any comments about the route (For example: How well do you think last years route worked? Is there anything you would like to see changed?) please either e-mail me or attend the April meeting, details of which will follow soon.<br />
<br />
Last Years Route - <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />
Setting off at 4PM - Form up on the path facing Museum Avenue. Left into Museum Avenue. <br />
<br />
Museum Avenue, City Hall 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. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place on Sunday 21st of March at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Second Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
The second planning meeting will take place on Thursday the 15th of April at 6pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). Once again I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. Dave Granville from South Wales Police will be attending to discuss changes we may need to make to the route due to roadworks in the city centre in June and to answer any other questions people may have about the policing of the ride. I also hope to have some flyers and posters available for anyone who would like to help spread the word. <br />
<br />

<br />
== History ==<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route - The route for this years ride may have to be altered to take account of roadworks in the City Centre in June. Dave Granville, events coordinator for South Wales Police, is in touch with the council on our behalf and will be attending the April organizing meeting so we can work something out together. If you would like to make any suggestions or have any comments about the route (For example: How well do you think last years route worked? Is there anything you would like to see changed?) please either e-mail me or attend the April meeting, details of which will follow soon.<br />
<br />
Last Years Route - <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />
Setting off at 4PM - Form up on the path facing Museum Avenue. Left into Museum Avenue. <br />
<br />
Museum Avenue, City Hall 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. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Signing up ===<br />
It's not essential to sign up for the ride - you can just turn up on the day - but it does help to get an idea of anticipated numbers. To sign up, visit the yahoo group at [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/] . Facebook users can also sign up by following the link to our facebook events page [http://www.facebook.com/cardiffwnbr http://www.facebook.com/cardiffwnbr] . <br />
<br />
== Events ==<br />
In December 2007 Johnny Zapatos's film about the London WNBR in 2005 was given a showing at the Chapter Centre. The film provoked a good deal of positive discussion. To contribute ideas for other showings, or ideas for any other events anywhere in Wales, please visit the [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ WNBR Cardiff/Caerdydd] Yahoo! group.<br />
<br />
== Planning ==<br />
Cardiff riders are underway with planning the 2010 WNBR! Please get in touch via [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ WNBR Cardiff/Caerdydd] or [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-uk/ WNBR UK] Yahoo! groups if you plan to ride or if you are able to help. <br />
<br />
=== Planning meetings ===<br />
Whether involved in planning previous years, a 2008 or 2009 participant, or a new rider for 2010, you are very welcome to join in the preparations this year. If you would like to contribute, please come to the initial meeting, or post a message on the [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ wnbr-cardiff/caerdydd Yahoo!] group. Also join our Facebook group at ([http://www.facebook.com/cardiffwnbr http://www.facebook.com/cardiffwnbr]) to let us know that you want to come along!<br />
<br />
== Publicity ==<br />
=== Posters & Flyers ===<br />
The designs for the 2010 posters and flyers have been done and copies will be available at planning meetings for anyone who would like to help publicize the ride or if you ask nicely and live, work or study in Cardiff I might be able to drop some round to you. If you live further afield and e-mail me I can e-mail you back with PDF's so you can print off some of your own or if you have a really great idea for somewhere to advertise, such as a bike shop or mountain biking centre, I might be able to stretch to a stamp. <br />
Please remember that Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride only receives very limited funding for printing costs from World Naked Bike Ride UK and use those posters and flyers wisely or better still help us out by printing/photocopying your own (at work maybe!), thanks.<br />
<br />
=== Slogan Suggestions === <br />
''Dros y byd, beicio ac ynni glân''<br>For the world, cycling and clean energy<br />
<br />
''Y noeth a’r doeth garia’r dydd'' <br>The naked and the wise will win the day<br />
<br />
''Herio'r byd ar feic i'r Bae''<br>Challenging the world on a bike to the Bay<br />
<br />
Open your mind & ride! ''Agor dy feddwl a cher!'' <br />
<br />
<br/>Got any more suggestions? Just add them here or let me know. I can get Welsh/English translations if necessary.<br />

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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route - The route for this years ride may have to be altered to take account of roadworks in the City Centre in June. Dave Granville, events coordinator for South Wales Police, is in touch with the council on our behalf and will be attending the April organizing meeting so we can work something out together. If you would like to make any suggestions or have any comments about the route (For example: How well do you think last years route worked? Is there anything you would like to see changed?) please either e-mail me or attend the April meeting, details of which will follow soon.<br />
<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place on Sunday 21st of March at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Second Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
The second planning meeting will take place on Thursday the 15th of April. Dave Granville from South Wales Police will be attending to discuss changes we may need to make to the route due to roadworks in the city centre in June and to answer any other questions people may have about the policing of the ride. I also hope to have some flyers and posters available for anyone who would like to help spread the word. <br />

== History ==<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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!

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place on Sunday 21st of March at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Second Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
The second planning meeting will take place on a Thursday evening in April (to be confirmed, let me know if you have any preference). Dave Granville from South Wales Police will be attending to discuss changes we may need to make to the route due to roadworks in the city centre in June and to answer any other questions people may have about the policing of the ride. I also hope to have some flyers and posters available for anyone who would like to help spread the word. <br />
<br />

== History ==<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route - The route for this years ride may have to be altered to take account of roadworks in the City Centre in June. Dave Granville, events coordinator for South Wales Police, is in touch with the council on our behalf and will be attending the April organizing meeting so we can work something out together. If you would like to make any suggestions or have any comments about the route (For example: How well do you think last years route worked? Is there anything you would like to see changed?) please either e-mail me or attend the April meeting, details of which will follow soon.<br />
<br />
Last Years Route - <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />
Setting off at 4PM - Form up on the path facing Museum Avenue. Left into Museum Avenue. <br />
<br />
Museum Avenue, City Hall 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. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Signing up ===<br />
It's not essential to sign up for the ride - you can just turn up on the day - but it does help to get an idea of anticipated numbers.

Facebook users can also sign up by following the link to our facebook events page [http://www.facebook.com/cardiffwnbr http://www.facebook.com/cardiffwnbr] . <br />
<br />
== Events ==<br />
In December 2007 Johnny Zapatos's film about the London WNBR in 2005 was given a showing at the Chapter Centre. The film provoked a good deal of positive discussion. To contribute ideas for other showings, or ideas for any other events anywhere in Wales, please visit the [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ WNBR Cardiff/Caerdydd] Yahoo! group.<br />
<br />
== Planning ==<br />
Cardiff riders are underway with planning the 2010 WNBR! Please get in touch via [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ WNBR Cardiff/Caerdydd] or [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-uk/ WNBR UK] Yahoo! groups if you plan to ride or if you are able to help. <br />
<br />
=== Planning meetings ===<br />
Whether involved in planning previous years, a 2008 or 2009 participant, or a new rider for 2010, you are very welcome to join in the preparations this year. If you would like to contribute, please come to the initial meeting, or post a message on the [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ wnbr-cardiff/caerdydd Yahoo!] group.

<br />
== Publicity ==<br />
=== Posters & Flyers ===<br />
The designs for the 2010 posters and flyers have been done and copies will be available at planning meetings for anyone who would like to help publicize the ride or if you ask nicely and live, work or study in Cardiff I might be able to drop some round to you. If you live further afield and e-mail me I can e-mail you back with PDF's so you can print off some of your own or if you have a really great idea for somewhere to advertise, such as a bike shop or mountain biking centre, I might be able to stretch to a stamp. <br />
Please remember that Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride only receives very limited funding for printing costs from World Naked Bike Ride UK and use those posters and flyers wisely or better still help us out by printing/photocopying your own (at work maybe!), thanks.<br />
<br />
=== Slogan Suggestions === <br />
''Dros y byd, beicio ac ynni glân''<br>For the world, cycling and clean energy<br />
<br />
''Y noeth a’r doeth garia’r dydd'' <br>The naked and the wise will win the day<br />
<br />
''Herio'r byd ar feic i'r Bae''<br>Challenging the world on a bike to the Bay<br />
<br />
Open your mind & ride! ''Agor dy feddwl a cher!'' <br />
<br />
<br/>Got any more suggestions? Just add them here or let me know. I can get Welsh/English translations if necessary.<br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place on Sunday 21st of March at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Second Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
The second planning meeting will take place on a Thursday evening in April (to be confirmed, let me know if you have any preference). Dave Granville from South Wales Police will be attending to discuss changes we may need to make to the route due to roadworks in the city centre in June and to answer any other questions people may have about the policing of the ride. I also hope to have some flyers and posters available for anyone who would like to help spread the word. <br />

<br />
== History ==<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route - The route for this years ride may have to be altered to take account of roadworks in the City Centre in June. Dave Granville, events coordinator for South Wales Police, is in touch with the council on our behalf and will be attending the April organizing meeting so we can work something out together. If you would like to make any suggestions or have any comments about the route (For example: How well do you think last years route worked? Is there anything you would like to see changed?) please either e-mail me or attend the April meeting, details of which will follow soon.<br />
<br />
Last Years Route - <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />
Setting off at 4PM - Form up on the path facing Museum Avenue. Left into Museum Avenue. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Signing up ===<br />
It's not essential to sign up for the ride - you can just turn up on the day - but it does help to get an idea of anticipated numbers. To sign up, visit the yahoo group at [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/] . Facebook users can also sign up by following the link to our facebook events page [http://www.facebook.com/cardiffwnbr http://www.facebook.com/cardiffwnbr] . <br />
<br />
== Events ==<br />
In December 2007 Johnny Zapatos's film about the London WNBR in 2005 was given a showing at the Chapter Centre. The film provoked a good deal of positive discussion. To contribute ideas for other showings, or ideas for any other events anywhere in Wales, please visit the [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ WNBR Cardiff/Caerdydd] Yahoo! group.<br />
<br />
== Planning ==<br />
Cardiff riders are underway with planning the 2010 WNBR! Please get in touch via [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ WNBR Cardiff/Caerdydd] or [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-uk/ WNBR UK] Yahoo! groups if you plan to ride or if you are able to help. <br />
<br />
=== Planning meetings ===<br />
Whether involved in planning previous years, a 2008 or 2009 participant, or a new rider for 2010, you are very welcome to join in the preparations this year. If you would like to contribute, please come to the initial meeting, or post a message on the [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wnbr-cardiff/ wnbr-cardiff/caerdydd Yahoo!] group. Also join our Facebook group at ([http://www.facebook.com/cardiffwnbr http://www.facebook.com/cardiffwnbr]) to let us know that you want to come along!<br />
<br />
== Publicity ==<br />
=== Posters & Flyers ===<br />
The designs for the 2010 posters and flyers have been done and copies will be available at planning meetings for anyone who would like to help publicize the ride or if you ask nicely and live, work or study in Cardiff I might be able to drop some round to you. If you live further afield and e-mail me I can e-mail you back with PDF's so you can print off some of your own or if you have a really great idea for somewhere to advertise, such as a bike shop or mountain biking centre, I might be able to stretch to a stamp. <br />
Please remember that Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride only receives very limited funding for printing costs from World Naked Bike Ride UK and use those posters and flyers wisely or better still help us out by printing/photocopying your own (at work maybe!), thanks.<br />
<br />
=== Slogan Suggestions === <br />
''Dros y byd, beicio ac ynni glân''<br>For the world, cycling and clean energy<br />
<br />
''Y noeth a’r doeth garia’r dydd'' <br>The naked and the wise will win the day<br />
<br />
''Herio'r byd ar feic i'r Bae''<br>Challenging the world on a bike to the Bay<br />
<br />
Open your mind & ride! ''Agor dy feddwl a cher!'' <br />
<br />
<br/>Got any more suggestions? Just add them here or let me know. I can get Welsh/English translations if necessary.<br />

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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route - The route for this years ride may have to be altered to take account of roadworks in the City Centre in June. Dave Granville, events coordinator for South Wales Police, is in touch with the council on our behalf and will be attending the April organizing meeting so we can work something out together. If you would like to make any suggestions or have any comments about the route (For example: How well do you think last years route worked? Is there anything you would like to see changed?) please either e-mail me or attend the April meeting, details of which will follow soon.<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place on Sunday 21st of March at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
== Second Planning Meeting 2010 ==<br />
<br />
The second planning meeting will take place on a Thursday evening in April (to be confirmed, let me know if you have any preference). Dave Granville from South Wales Police will be attending to discuss changes we may need to make to the route due to roadworks in the city centre in June and to answer any other questions people may have about the policing of the ride. I also hope to have some flyers and posters available for anyone who would like to help spread the word. <br />

== History ==<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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!

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place on Sunday 21st of March at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
== Second Planning Meeting 2010 ==<br />
The second planning meeting will take place on a Thursday evening in April (to be confirmed, let me know if you have any preference). Dave Granville from South Wales Police will be attending to discuss changes we may need to make to the route due to roadworks in the city centre in June and to answer any other questions people may have about the policing of the ride. I also hope to have some flyers and posters available for anyone who would like to help spread the word. <br />
<br />

<br />
== History ==<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route - The route for this years ride may have to be altered to take account of roadworks in the City Centre in June. Dave Granville, events coordinator for South Wales Police, is in touch with the council on our behalf and will be attending the April organizing meeting so we can work something out together. If you would like to make any suggestions or have any comments about the route (For example: How well do you think last years route worked? Is there anything you would like to see changed?) please either e-mail me or attend the April meeting, details of which will follow soon.<br />
<br />
Last Years Route - <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />
Setting off at 4PM - Form up on the path facing Museum Avenue. Left into Museum Avenue. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Signing up ===<br />
It's not essential to sign up for the ride - you can just turn up on the day - but it does help to get an idea of anticipated numbers.

== History ==<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route - The route for this years ride may have to be altered to take account of roadworks in the City Centre in June. Dave Granville, events coordinator for South Wales Police, is in touch with the council on our behalf and will be attending the April organizing meeting so we can work something out together. If you would like to make any suggestions or have any comments about the route (For example: How well do you think last years route worked? Is there anything you would like to see changed?) please either e-mail me or attend the April meeting, details of which will follow soon.<br />
<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place on Sunday 21st of March at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place on Sunday 21st of March at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle). I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />
Setting off at 4PM - Form up on the path facing Museum Avenue. Left into Museum Avenue. <br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />
Set off along the front of the Pier Head Building, returning past the front of the Millennium Centre.

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
The first planning meeting for the 2010 ride will take place on Sunday 21st of March at 7pm in the Rummer Tavern, Duke Street (opposite the castle) I'll be the one with the bright pink World Naked Bike Ride flag on the table. <br />
<br />
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. <br />

== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />

<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
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.&nbsp; <br />
<br />
If you fancy helping out in whatever&nbsp;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.&nbsp;I had a great time last year and felt so proud with the success of the ride. It&nbsp;also taught me some valuable skills, enhancing my CV and giving me something&nbsp;interesting to talk about at job interviews (and I did get the job!). Lets&nbsp;meet up, share some&nbsp;ideas and have a laugh. <br />

<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br> <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />

<br />
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, Tthe Hayes, Hayes Bridge Road, Bute Street, Herbert Street, Lloyd George Avenue. Onto cycle path (left hand pavement) after Hemingway Road. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
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.&nbsp; <br />
<br />
If you fancy helping out in whatever&nbsp;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.&nbsp;I had a great time last year and felt so proud with the success of the ride. It&nbsp;also taught me some valuable skills, enhancing my CV and giving me something&nbsp;interesting to talk about at job interviews (and I did get the job!). Lets&nbsp;meet up, share some&nbsp;ideas and have a laugh. <br />

== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />

== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
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.&nbsp; <br />
<br />
If you fancy helping out in whatever&nbsp;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.&nbsp;I had a great time last year and felt so proud with the success of the ride. It&nbsp;also taught me some valuable skills, enhancing my CV and giving me something&nbsp;interesting to talk about at job interviews (and I did get the job!). Lets&nbsp;meet up, share some&nbsp;ideas and have a laugh. <br />

== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br> <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route <br />
<br />

<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />

== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
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.&nbsp; <br />
<br />
If you fancy helping out in whatever&nbsp;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.&nbsp;I had a great time last year and felt so proud with the success of the ride. It&nbsp;also taught me some valuable skills, enhancing my CV and giving me something&nbsp;interesting to talk about at job interviews (and I did get the job!).

== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br> <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route <br />
<br />
Assembly Point - Cathays Park - Grassed area adjacent to the University Main Building (bounded by Park Place and Museum Avenue). <br />
<br />

<br />
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, Tthe Hayes, Hayes Bridge Road, Bute Street, Herbert Street, Lloyd George Avenue. Onto cycle path (left hand pavement) after Hemingway Road. <br />
<br />
Over crossing to pass in front of Millennium Centre, to the rear of the Pier Head Building, pause in front of the Senedd. <br />
<br />
Set off along the front of the Pier Head Building, returning past the front of the Millennium Centre.

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
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.&nbsp; <br />
<br />
If you fancy helping out in whatever&nbsp;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.&nbsp;I had a great time last year and felt so proud with the success of the ride. It&nbsp;also taught me some valuable skills, enhancing my CV and giving me something&nbsp;interesting to talk about at job interviews (and I did get the job!). Lets&nbsp;meet up, share some&nbsp;ideas and have a laugh. <br />

== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
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.&nbsp; <br />
<br />
If you fancy helping out in whatever&nbsp;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.&nbsp;I had a great time last year and felt so proud with the success of the ride. It&nbsp;also taught me some valuable skills, enhancing my CV and giving me something&nbsp;interesting to talk about at job interviews (and I did get the job!). Lets&nbsp;meet up, share some&nbsp;ideas and have a laugh. <br />

== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br> <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />

=== First Planning Meeting 2010 ===<br />
<br />
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.&nbsp; <br />
<br />
If you fancy helping out in whatever&nbsp;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.&nbsp;I had a great time last year and felt so proud with the success of the ride. It&nbsp;also taught me some valuable skills, enhancing my CV and giving me something&nbsp;interesting to talk about at job interviews (and I did get the job!). Lets&nbsp;meet up, share some&nbsp;ideas and have a laugh. <br />

== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br> <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2010 Proposed Route <br />
<br />

<br />

St. John Street, Working Street, Tthe Hayes, Hayes Bridge Road, Bute Street, Herbert Street, Lloyd George Avenue. Onto cycle path (left hand pavement) after Hemingway Road. <br />
<br />

<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

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. <br />

== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br> <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br> <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. They have embraced the ride again this year, saying that they were impressed with the public reaction last year. One of the veterans on the Veteran Day celebrations 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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
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.<br />

<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br> <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />
<br />
Cardiff World Naked Bike Ride 2009 - Route <br />
<br />

<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. They have embraced the ride again this year, saying that they were impressed with the public reaction last year. One of the veterans on the Veteran Day celebrations 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. <br />

=== Public transport ===<br />

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. <br />

== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 &amp; 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2010.<br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. They have embraced the ride again this year, saying that they were impressed with the public reaction last year. One of the veterans on the Veteran Day celebrations 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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
The 2009 ride will start within easy cycling distance of Cardiff Central Rail Station, served by frequent trains from various parts of Wales and England. <br />

<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />

== History ==<br />
<br />
=== 2009 ===<br />
<br />
62 riders began the ride, according to [http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=109593928744 Facebook event] report. However, we picked up some extra riders along the way and ended with 67. <br />
<br />
'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />
<br />
<br> <br />
<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2009. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
=== Route ===<br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. They have embraced the ride again this year, saying that they were impressed with the public reaction last year. One of the veterans on the Veteran Day celebrations 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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
<br />
The 2009 ride will start within easy cycling distance of Cardiff Central Rail Station, served by frequent trains from various parts of Wales and England. <br />

'''2009 Ride Report''' - On the Saturday the13th 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 no the numbers for the next one, I think we have gained a few new recruits already so we have a head start for 2010. <br />
<br />
=== 2008 ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />
<br />
'''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. <br />

<br />
== About the ride ==<br />
<br />
=== Assembly point ===<br />
<br />
The 2008 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 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=CF10+3NP&t=h map of the assembly location]. This is also the intended assembly point for 2009. <br />
<br />
=== Dress code ===<br />
<br />
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. <br />

<br />
=== Legality ===<br />
<br />
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. They have embraced the ride again this year, saying that they were impressed with the public reaction last year. One of the veterans on the Veteran Day celebrations 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. <br />
<br />
=== Public transport ===<br />
