Intro
Calling it a World Naked Bike Ride is a bit misleading if you've never heard of one before. This is a clothing optional protest against oil dependency that happens in different cities separate from one another all over the world while carrying the same message, and are usually about 20 miles depending on the host city and planned route. Something else is the word 'naked'; You can go with what your wearing right now (if anything), and fully participate in the protest.
There will be body painters, and a limited supply of body paint depending on the amount of participants. Donations to the painters will be appreciated, but isn't mandatory. An after part (with booze) is in the works, and as soon as I know something I'll be updating this page.
If you have any questions like: How is this legal?, or isn't riding a bike naked naked painful?, and Is this a ride around the world? can be answered in the FAQ on the left hand side. Please feel free to email me, and I'll answer your questions the best I can.
