This ride will be pretty much the same as 2013. Due to the public nature of the beach area at the Sculpture Park, we need to stay covered until close to ride time. Just be discreet.

 When we enter the large [http://worldnakedbikeride.org/countries/us/seattle/fountain.html Seattle Center International Fountain] ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHX7DHub07E video]) area, we must all get off our bikes and walk with our bikes into the fountain area. Bicycles are not permitted down into the water area. Lock your bike, walk down the ramps. We will spend no more than 15-20 minutes in the fountain. Please also be very polite and vocal (or ring bells) when passing around adults and children in the area. We have also been asked not to use amplified sound such as megaphones in this area.

 ==Things to Know==
 '''Wear clothes before and after the ride'''
-While we encourage riders to '''"bare as you dare"''' (it is '''[http://www.naturistsociety.com/tns/n_events/2011_Events.html Nude Recreation Week]''', afterall), '''nudity is not required or expected'''. Just come ride with us dressed for fun and spread cheer and inspire others with our pro-cycling message! You are always allowed to strip down as much as you like, when you feel comfortable. A swimsuit or undies are recommended if you want to go in the water without being naked. Remember, [http://naturist.com nude is not lewd]! Looking for ideas? [http://www.flickr.com/groups/worldnakedbikeride/ See some examples on our international WNBR Flickr photo group].

-This is a grassroots, collaborative, D.I.Y. event, so bring your own body paint (and supplies), creative wearable art, musical instruments and bike art supplies. Things can go much smoother when you bring your friends to help out! Tell them to bring their bikes and they might even ride along with you! Here are some [[body art]] resources to consider.
+Body paint and supplies will be provided for quick painting of slogans. Also, WNBR slogan signs and flags will be available for those wishing to attach them to their bikes. However, since this is a grassroots, collaborative, D.I.Y. event, you may bring your own body paint (and supplies), creative wearable art, musical instruments and bike art supplies as you wish. Things can go much smoother when you bring your friends to help out! Tell them to bring their bikes and they might even ride along with you! Here are some [[body art]] resources to consider. Keep in mind the limited time for painting before we ride at 1pm.

-We hope to have a route map up soon, but its more or less the same as last year except for no pre-party in Belltown and possible Pioneer Square re-route changes due to the Fire Festival. The new route will also highlight a new attraction, the Seattle Great Wheel, a 175-foot tall Ferris wheel being installed at the end of Pier 57.
+=====Ride Starts at 1:00 PM!=====
 Please bring a creative minimum amount of clothing for the ride (undies, loincloth, sock, pasties, loincloth or thong) in case you need it. Important: You will also want to make sure you use the restroom well before we leave!!!
 ::'''Please note''': We may be entering the Seattle Center from a different entrance this year. Please follow instructions from ride marshals before and during the ride. We are expected to enter from the North this year, which is different than in previous years.

 Don't forget to have your bike tuned up, tires pumped and make sure your bicycle is properly fit to your size.
-=====Come to our Crazy Pre-Ride Party at the beach!=====
+=====Extended Ride Option!=====
-Inspired by other WNBR wade-in traditions such as at the end of WNBR [[Vancouver]] (BC, Canada) and WNBR [[Brighton & Hove]] (UK), we're planning to set a new record for skinny dipping at a Seattle beach! So stick around with us after the Seattle Center! (You can easily throw on your undies until you reach the beach after rinsing off your body paint in the fountain, if you wish).
+For those that wish to continue after the Seattle Center, there will be an option to continue the ride towards Fremont, then either Ballard or the University District as the group wishes.
-By the way, the Seattle Center has no problem with us washing off our body paint in the [http://worldnakedbikeride.org/countries/us/seattle/fountain.html International Fountain]. They explained to us that they actually have a very thorough filter system because of all the messy kids (+ fun-loving adults!) Better to wash off in the fountain than in the Puget Sound! [http://pugetsound.org/act/citizen/sound-citizen-voices Keep it clean]!
+=====Important: Not Returning to Departure Point=====
-We may also have an after party after the wade-in.
+PLEASE NOTE: this ride will not be returning to it's departure point. Please consider where it's best to park for you, if driving to the ride, based on ending the first portion at Seattle Center, or the extended ride north of the ship canal.
 =====After Party Anyone?!=====
