==Eco and Cruelty-free compliance==

Many festivals are going green and cruelty free [http://greenfestivals.org], [http://www.harmonyfestival.com/greening.shtml], [http://www.green-mary.com]. WNBR Seattle is produced by [http://organicparty.org The Organic Living Party/Work Less Party USA] and strives to join the ranks of others as an eco- and animal -friendly event:

*Many of our foods offered are [[wikipedia:vegan|vegan]] and have [[wikipedia:organic|organic]], non-[[Wikipedia:Genetically modified organism|GMO]] ingredients
*Our bodypainting tents are made out of Tam Vong and Tonkin [[wikipedia:bamboo|bamboo]], strung together with [[wikipedia:jute|jute]] twine. Franz's tent utilizes bases made out of recycled vegetable containers, discarded construction materials, thatching, Body Painting sign made with recycled cardboard product.
*Many of our paints are reused from past bodypainting events. We reuse discarded plastic tubs and cups for mixing paints, we reuse old dropclothes.
*We hope to begin using ethanol or biodiesel in our generators. We are also looking at going solar in 2006.
*We are advocating [http://biketivism.org cycling], one of the most environmentally friendly and efficient personal transportation solutions ever created.
*We advocate [http://bodyfreedom.org clothing-free] recreation, staying clear from unnecessary clothing and consumption.
*We advocate urban and local cultural events, cutting down on unnecessary energy to go to far away places to enjoy body-positive art events (like [[wikipedia:Burning Man|Burning Man]], which is held in the middle of a desert).
*Our policy for our events is "Leave No Trace - [http://www.ci.seattle.wa.us/parks/Environment/packitout.htm Pack it In, Pack it Out]".
*We select paper that has a high recycled paper content for our flyers, many of which are handed out by people walking on foot or bicycle.

Have any more suggestions for us? Please let us know. Fill out the form on the [http://worldnakedbikeride.org main WNBR page] and drop us a comment (be sure to select Seattle from the drop down menu)

==How to avoid trouble==

Have fun, be enthustiastic, be safe, and WNBR's message will speak for itself. Here are some guidelines for people who need clarfication on expectations of behavior and safety during the event:

*'''Don't be an idiot. Use common sense.''' Remember all those lessons that you picked up in grade school about appropriate social conduct.
*'''Follow the [http://www.jcu.edu/philosophy/gensler/goldrule.htm golden rule].''' Treat others as you want to be treated.
*'''[http://bicyclesafe.com Bicycle safely] and be polite and exercise caution around any people.''' Do not bicycle near anybody laying on the beach. Be vocal and polite when passing. '''Always keep a respectable and responsible distance from people for safety and for personal comfort levels.'''
*'''Do not be "obscene".''' Nude is not lewd - mind your manners! Humans are sexual beings, but being naked is not an indication or an invitation for overt sexual behavior.

** 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 penises, vaginas, breasts and butts are still very personal spaces. Do not bring them up as a topic of conversation with somebody you do not know. [[wikipedia:Sexual harassment|Sexual harassment]] will not be tolerated under any circumstances.

Respect peoples' bodies and their personal space. Sexual harassment, creepy or predatory behavior or abusive language will not be tolerated and we will either ask you to leave or we will summon the police.

While there is nothing in the [http://clerk.ci.seattle.wa.us/~public/toc/table.htm Seattle Municipal Code] about nudity and expectations of behavior, [http://access.wa.gov Washington State] does have a law protecting against "obscene" behavior while being fully or partially naked. This law is intended to protect citizens against unwanted lewd behavior. [http://www.leg.wa.gov/RCW/index.cfm?section=9A.88.010&fuseaction=section RCW 9A.88.010] on Indecent exposure states "(1) A person is guilty of indecent exposure if he or she intentionally makes any open and obscene exposure of his or her person or the person of another knowing that such conduct is likely to cause reasonable affront or alarm. The act of breastfeeding or expressing breast milk is not indecent exposure." The severity goes up substaintially when an offense is made against young children.

==Photography and videography policy==

The Seattle WNBR event has adopted a photography policy which

*Prohibits photography taking place closer than 15 feet from subjects.
**Prohibits taking pictures with cell phones or cameras in an aggressive manner and with the intent of getting extreme closeups of personal areas, especially without permission. This makes many people very uncomfortable.
*Prohibits photography inside body painting tent areas without permission from those getting painted.

This policy is intended to curtail any inconsiderate photography which might otherwise take place. We wish to create a safe and supportive environment for all riders. All photographers present at the ride must abide by this policy. Those who do not will be asked to leave. This INCLUDES any riders or press who take photos.

To ensure that this policy is clear to all present, it will appear on leaflets distributed at the event.
If you are attending the ride as a photographer, we would like to remind you that there are various points along the route which feature particularly striking backgrounds for photos of the ride.

Photographers are encouraged to give out contact info on small cards to those who ask.

Riders and supporters are actively encouraged to enforce these policies.

Please report any problems with photographers to ride organizers.

If it makes you uncomfortable, let the photographers know that they don't have permission to photograph you. Keep in mind however that this is a public event and you are in a public park. That does not give people the right to be disrespectful or to harass you with their photography. Also, let other riders know this so they can tell photographers not to photograph you. Another approach is to keep your clothes on during the first bit of the ride, and take them off after you have left the assembly point. We recommend this approach too. Both of these approaches will cut down on photographs taken at the start of the ride, but it's not really possible to stop people from photographing during the ride.

WNBR local events often do have a documentary team taking pictures and video, but they are generally very considerate people and will try to keep your best wishes in mind as much as possible. You can see many of their images on this website and on WNBR-generated media, which is sometimes shared with other non-profit progressive groups.

There are also those who are at the event to use the images for other reasons, and you won't know without asking. If someone is being aggressive, acting suspiciously, or making you feel uncomfortable please tell a WNBR team coordinator or someone who can confront them and tell them to back off a bit and give people personal space. People need to understand the positive message of WNBR and understand that part of respecting each others' bodies is giving each other enough personal space to be comfortable. This is especially important for those that have never been naked in front of strangers or in public before. They have their own issues they are dealing with and aggressive gawking or unwanted exposure adds an additional unwanted complication to their experience. So speak up!

==Promotional video==
Those of you who missed the Seattle WNBR meeting on 23 April 2006 with Conrad Schmidt can now see the footage we shot in [[Wikipedia:Washington Park Arboretum|Washington State Park Arboretum]], on a very busy warm day. There were tons of people in the park that day using this trail. A lot of people got a kick out of the streaking, which went on for about an hour or so, on and off (we certainly looking highly conspicuous as we waited for people to walk by). One lady asked if she could join in.

To help encourage all 5 billion people on the planet to participate in this celebration of two-wheeled naked splendor we have made a small video promo:

* Low-res video: [http://worldnakedbikeride.org/movie/promo1.mov QuickTime] / [http://worldnakedbikeride.org/movie/promo1.wmv Windows Media]
* High-res video: [http://worldnakedbikeride.org/movie/promo2.mov QuickTime] / [http://worldnakedbikeride.org/movie/promo2.wmv Windows Media]
