Time: 10:30 am
Location: Peace Park, central Nimbin

Ride details

The ride will occur Saturday the 7th of March 2009. Assemble at Peace Park, central Nimbim at 10:30am. Organisers will lead the riders to a secret place for de-briefing and body painting. The ride is clothing optional so you can choose how much or how little you want to wear.

Some bikes will be available to borrow for the ride if you are a backpacker or out-of-town visitor but the number of bikes is limited. Bring your own bike if you are a local to guarantee you can join the ride.

A nurse will be coming on the ride who will perform first aid if anyone suffers a mishap.

There is an after ride party being organised for participants who have completed the ride.

Byron Bay rides on Saturday the 14th of March 2009 and Brisbane rides on Saturday the 21st of March 2009. Byron Bay and Brisbane are within commuting distance of Nimbin so keen participants can ride in all 3 of these places.

What to bring

  • A bike in working order. If you have a bike in need of repair or do not have a bike please visit the Bicycle Recycling Network. A limited number of bikes will be available to borrow for the ride so it is best to avoid disappointment and bring your own. You can ride a scooter or skates if you want to because any form of human powered transport is OK.
  • You MUST have a proper bike helmet.
  • Bring your friends.
  • You need to arrive clothed. Seriously, some people have not done this.
  • You need decent shoes for cycling because you may hurt your feet otherwise.
  • You need somewhere to put your clothes while you are riding. A luggage rack on your bike, or panniers or a basket that you can put your bag with your clothes. Clothing is optional on the ride and you are perfectly welcome to ride clothed or naked or somewhere in between.
  • Apply sunscreen before the event.
  • Bring a bottle of water.
  • Bring some money for the after party.

What not to bring

  • Alcohol or drugs. Ride in control and safe. There will be alcohol available at the after party.

Legality

The laws that are relevant to public nudity in New South Wales are applicable througout the state. For discussion of this topic, please refer to the separate page about New South Wales Laws.

Future

In July 2008 an Organiser volunteered to help make a WNBR happen in Nimbin for Saturday the 7th of March 2009. The Organiser has several associates who are interested in helping. People interested in participating or helping organise the 2009 WNBR in Nimbin should join the discussion group, try to make contact with others with similar views and demonstrate some initiative. It will happen if you help make it happen! Please refer to the Organizing a ride page for more information about starting or restarting a ride.
