==FAQs==
 +
 
 +
The [[United Kingdom FAQ]] page answers questions especially relevant to UK riders and organisers.
 +
 
 +
==Legality==
 +
 
 +
===UK laws relating to public nudity===
 +
 
 +
The following links will be of interest to people organising rides in the UK:

 +
 
 +
===Police restrictions===
 +
 
 +
From 2004 to 2012, there have been 59 UK Naked Bike Rides with a cumulative total of 13,000+ riders in 13 locations, and no arrests.
 +
 
 +
It is unlikely that police will object to nudity at future rides in England and Wales. Local police officially acknowledged the legality of full nudity at all rides from 2007 onward. They required people to wear clothes at three English rides ([[Brighton]], [[Manchester]] and [[Bristol]]) in 2006, but have made no such restrictions at later events.
 +
 
 +
In contrast, Scottish police have never officially allowed full nudity at the [[Edinburgh]] rides  No arrest have been made, so the legality of the Scottish police's position has never actually been tested in court. They have in late 2018 indicated that their approach to this has changed, and that nudity will be possible in future.
 +
 
 +
For UK rides where full nudity ''wasn't'' permitted, police requirements of body coverage seemed to be similar. The groin area needed to be covered, as did female nipples. However, buttocks could be shown by either men or women.
 +
 
 +
==Media coverage==
 +
 
 +
This section needs updating. There have been much TV, Radio, print and online coverage of the WNBR in the UK, but most of this info is stored with the local ride's webpages.

Registering your interest

Whether you want to get actively involved in helping a ride be a success, or just wish to get the occasional email reminder about upcoming rides, please register your interest via the Sign Up box on the Worldwide site. We will usually acknowledge each registration, especially if you have a specific question or can offer to help. It is, however, not a requirement that riders register in this way.

Most rides also have a public Yahoo group to which you can subscribe and then discuss issues with others involved in that town or city. Sign up to Yahoo then, in Groups, search for WNBR and your town or city, and apply to become a member of the group if it exists. If it doesn't, then why not start one!

Police restrictions

From 2004 to 2012, there have been 59 UK Naked Bike Rides with a cumulative total of 13,000+ riders in 13 locations, and no arrests.

It is unlikely that police will object to nudity at future rides in England and Wales. Local police officially acknowledged the legality of full nudity at all rides from 2007 onward. They required people to wear clothes at three English rides (Brighton, Manchester and Bristol) in 2006, but have made no such restrictions at later events.
