Time=1pm Body Painting, 2pm Ride Starts|Location=Sunset Beach (corner of Beach and Bute)}}

Experience the exposed joy of Vancouver's largest naked protest against oil dependency and car culture. It's time to stop indecent exposure to automobile emissions! Hundreds of cyclists will ride in various stages of undress, reclaiming the streets as sexy, self-propelled citizens. Raw Naked Bicycle People Power!

Body painting and performances will take place before the ride. A picnic following the ride will be hosted by [http://www.niftynude.org/ NIFTY]. The ride, pre and post-ride activities are all free.

==Rules for the Vancouver ride==
*Nudity is not forced on anybody. You decide what you are comfortable with.
*Respect the diversity of many different body types, and refrain from ogling.
*Realize that although we are naked, many people consider that private parts are still private. Don't bring them up as a topic of conversation with somebody you do not know.

==Naked bike riding tips==
*Prepare for riding rain or shine!
*If sunny, put on sunscreen!
*You do not have to be fully naked to join the ride.
*Wear shoes!
*We often start the ride with some clothing on and then stop away from the crowds to get bare!
*Keep your clothes with you -- you never know when you may need them (like... after the ride).
*Decorate your bike! Come with signs and funky hats! Cover your bike seat with fun fur.
*Ride safely and stay together as a group.
*Tell your friends! Spread the word!

==History==
The first naked bike ride in Vancouver was in the middle of winter, on 17 Jan [[:Category:2002 ride locations|2002]].

Since then we've had many rides, even two in 2007. For more information please visit [http://www.artistsagainstwar.org/ www.artistsagainstwar.org].
