Ride details

THE BRISBANE WORLD NAKED BIKE RIDE WILL BE BACK IN 2020.

The Brisbane World Naked Bike Ride will be held at Riverside Drive in West End near Merivale Bridge. All riders must assemble there by 11:30am with the ride officially taking off at 12pm going down to Orleigh Park and back up again. You must wear a helmet and as it is a clothing optional ride a g-string is the minimal dress code in accordance with willful exposure laws.

We will have face and body painting, as well as a couple of small prize givewaways for the best decorated bike and best body design.

It's an all ages event, and bear in mind that there might be members of the general public taking photos (although we will have an official photographer on the day).

WNBR Mission Statement:
"We face automobile traffic with our naked bodies as the best way of defending our dignity and exposing the unique dangers faced by cyclists and pedestrians plus all the negative effects of oil, cars, war, consumerism and non-renewable energy."

Check out http://wiki.worldnakedbikeride.org/wiki/Australia for more info about WNBR generally, and past rides.

Please pass this on and invite and tell everyone you know whether it be your family, your relatives, your friends, your workmates, your church-people (hey, public nudity was okay in Biblical times too, you know!) :)

Any public, police or media enquiries need to be directed to organizer Dario Western at [email protected] or 61-437-428-859

-==Ride Details==
-Please assemble 3:15pm for a 4pm start. The ride is expected to finish at 6 pm.
-Ride route is down the Wynnum Esplanade, which is about a 5 minute walk from the station and ride down the entire length of the esplanade down to Lota.
-After that we could either go to a bar or one of the local seafood restaurants for a celebratory drink and to discuss plans for next year's one.
-If you are not sure of where the location is, then go to the site:
-http://www.whereis.com and type in "Wynnum Esplanade" in the street window and "Wynnum" in the suburb window.
-Assemble at Crown Street where the Wynnum North Esplanade starts at approximately 3.15 pm to do the body painting and any interviews with the press that might show up on the day.
-The ride will begin in earnest at 4 pm and we will ride down the Wynnum North Esplanade all the way down to Coolana Street park in Lota, and then back up again.
+==Ride details==
+THE BRISBANE WORLD NAKED BIKE RIDE WILL BE BACK IN 2020.<br>
-===Here are a few tips:===
+The Brisbane World Naked Bike Ride will be held at Riverside Drive in West End near Merivale Bridge.  All riders must assemble there by 11:30am with the ride officially taking off at 12pm going down to Orleigh Park and back up again.  You must wear a helmet and as it is a clothing optional ride a g-string is the minimal dress code in accordance with willful exposure laws.
-*1) Wear plenty of sunscreen and a helmet as well as some sensible shoes for the ride.
+We will have face and body painting, as well as a couple of small prize givewaways for the best decorated bike and best body design.
-*2) If you are stopped by the police over nudity, find out if they are ''asking'' you to get dressed or ''ordering'' you to get dressed. If they ask you to get dressed, you are within your rights not to comply. If they are ordering you to, you can either comply with their order or you can face being arrested. I wouldn't recommend the latter!
+It's an all ages event, and bear in mind that there might be members of the general public taking photos (although we will have an official photographer on the day).
-*3) If for any reason you find the crowd jeering or heckling you, then wave them off. Don't verbally abuse them as you will only be pulling yourself down to their level.
-*4) No sexual behaviour of any kind will be tolerated during this event. We are out to show people that we support public morality as far as sexual mores are concerned. Anyone who tries to exploit this event for sexual opportunism such as swing clubs, or makes unwanted advances towards any other punter whether they are naked or not will be ordered to leave instantly.
+WNBR Mission Statement: <br>
+"We face automobile traffic with our naked bodies as the best way of defending our dignity and exposing the unique dangers faced by cyclists and pedestrians plus all the negative effects of oil, cars, war, consumerism and non-renewable energy."<br>
-*5) Do not lie to any journalist or reporter about your thoughts on naturism or this event - it will come back to haunt you later.
+Check out http://wiki.worldnakedbikeride.org/wiki/Australia for more info about WNBR generally, and past rides.<br>
-*6) If you wish to photograph anyone, ask permission from them first. Do not photograph anybody under 16 who may at the event without securing permission from their chaperone.
+Please pass this on and invite and tell everyone you know whether it be your family, your relatives, your friends, your workmates, your church-people (hey, public nudity was okay in Biblical times too, you know!) :)<br>
-==Planning==
+Any public, police or media enquiries need to be directed to organizer Dario Western at brisbanenaturists@live.com or 61-437-428-859
-[mailto:[email protected] Dario Western] has volunteered to organise the WNBR in Brisbane in 2008 and welcomes offers of help with this task. People interested in participating or helping organise the 2008 WNBR in Brisbane should [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WNBR_Brisbane/join join the discussion group] and watch this page.  Important: we will *NOT* be doing next year's bike ride on the same route that we took last year.  Neither does Dario have any wish for the mainstream media to know about it until a week before the event due to the police intervention.

-The 2007 ride was the first for Brisbane.
-The Indooroopilly police were assembled on Coronation Drive at Toowong at approximately 3.10pm with the photographers and film makers turning up half an hour later.  The riders started to arrive about after 4pm for body painting as well as talking to the people at 4ZZZ radio, Channel 10, and the Westside News. 32 riders participated.
-====Post-ride party====
-We all had our post ride party at the Regatta Hotel afterwards.  The duty manager kindly reserved the Cellar Bar downstairs for us.  We discussed plans for next year's ride as well as impromptu public nude stagings and plans for starting a young adults naturist group in Brisbane this year.  At one stage, some of us nuded up for a photograph.  One young lady took part in the photo, but she was not comfortable with going the full monty just yet.
-Nevertheless it was a great opportunity to renew some old friendships and forge a few new ones too.  Byron Bay film maker Charles McFarland attended the event and included 10 minute footage on his latest DVD "Lily's Fantastic Summer 1" available from his site at http://www.synetechvideo.com The video contains two girls from the bike ride, Lily Barlow and Laura Kearns having fun at his place and riding their bikes fully naked down the main highway in Byron.
