| − | <div style="align: center; padding: .4em; border: solid 0px black; background-color: #FFF000;">This year's suggested theme is '''"Harnessing the power of the human body and spirit"'''.</div>
| + | Every year, in cities around the world, thousands ride bikes naked to celebrate human-powered transport and the power and individuality of the human body. WNBR demonstrates the vulnerability of cyclists on the road and offers a simple, cheap, healthy + fun alternative to car culture. We hope you can join us! |

| − | ===2007 date scheduling=== | + | ==Basics== |
| − | [[Seattle]] has some conflicts that it needs to consider for scheduling. | + | [[image:WNBRseattleWiki rainbow1.jpg|175px|thumb|right|Use this [[wikipedia:QR Code|QR code]] to send people to this wiki page.]] |

| | | | |
| − | ====Too many naked bike rides too close together!==== | + | ===Wiki website=== |
| − | This ride must not conflict with the [http://solsticecyclists.org Solstice Cyclists] on the Saturday closest to Summer Solstice in June or [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/beeper/ Body Pride Ride] which is the week after that. In 2005 and 2006, there were three naked bike rides in three weeks! Way too many, especially for the organizers and artists who are staging the event. | + | *You are here! This is the WNBR Seattle wiki site (most detailed info about the events can be found here). |
| | | | |
| − | [http://hempride.org Hemp Ride] is not a concern since it will always be scheduled around WNBR and will take place in August. | + | ===YouTube=== |
| | + | *[http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=WNBR+seattle Search YouTube for WNBR Seattle videos]. There are many created by riders as well as spectators. |
| | | | |
| − | ====Other conflicts==== | + | ===Organizers=== |
| − | We also want to avoid conflict with any regional Burning Man events such as Critical Massive and Burn in the Forest (mid July) or the Seattle to Portland Ride (if possible). We also really enjoyed the Group Health Bicycle Saturday and Sundays event, which is only on select weekends. Also, if we schedule too late in the summer, it is harder for us to get access to the International Fountain at the Seattle Center. It would also be good not to conflict with Bare Buns Fun Runs. Lifeguards are not even dispatched to Seattle public beaches until late June.
| + | The best way to '''contact''' organizer <s>[[User:D|Daniel Johnson]] and the WNBR Seattle team is via telephone: (206) 452-3820 (Skype number - please call first) or (206) 369 - 2661 (mobile phone/voice mail - please only call if you need to speak with Daniel immediately)</s> |
| | | | |
| − | Seattle is currently working on getting '''Sat, 7 July 2007''', as it is two weeks after BPR (much needed breathing room) and it falls on a Group Health Bicycle Saturday and Sundays day. Some in the bodypainting team want it even later in July or August while others want to keep in line with the dates of other global WNBR events.

| |
| − | | |
| − | ==What to wear? Do not fear!==
| |
| − | | |
| − | :''For details, please see our [[Frequently asked questions]]''
| |
| − | | |
| − | The World Naked Bike Ride dress code is "Bare As You Dare"... How bare is that ? How dare is that ?...Its all up to you, you decide what you are comfortable with. NO ONE IS EXCLUDED OR DISCRIMINATED AGAINST based on levels of clothing, bodypaint, or anything else, for that matter!
| |
| − | | |
| − | PLEASE be creative and colorful! Bodypainting and bike decorating is highly encouraged! See the above section on [[Seattle#Express_yourself!|creative expression]] and also visit our [[body art]] page.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The laws on nudity, for the most part are a bit vague, difficult and often unpopular to enforce. The principal concern of most citizens is to eliminate creepy, predatory, exploitative, destructive and abusive behavior. WNBR is a fun, inspirational, non-confrontational body-positive event with a positive message of hope. That is why the ride has been such a huge hit and so many are supportive. Just use common sense and mind your manners! Nude is not lewd!
| |
| − | | |
| − | Since most of us did not grow up in a body-positive society, many will look at you with curiosity and amusement. You will probably notice that different sections of town have different cultural reactions to nudity. Some may feel mildly intimidated because they still might have issues with their own bodies and your shameless ways are unsettling to their body-phobic world. Just be friendly and respectful and things should be fine. Remember we are all human and we all have the same parts.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ::"Gymnophobia (from the Greek word for nude gymnos) is the fear of being (or seeing others) naked. A gymnophobic person usually wants to prevent others from experiencing the freedom of not wearing clothes."
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you are concerned, you probably don't need to cover up much to be "legal". With the incredible transforming powers of a little body paint, liquid latex, a strategically placed sock, or a piece of duct tape you too can transform the average city streaking naked wild cyclist into "The legal city streaking naked wild cyclist". Be creative: a little imagination can change everything.

| |
| − | <!--The following text was taken and modified from [[Vancouver]]-->
| |
| − | ** 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.
| + | ==Donations== |
| − | | + | We need your money to help make the magic happen! Please [[Seattle donations|click here]] to go to our donations page to support our event! We need money for permitting fees, rentals, materials costs, multiple web domains for our different affiliated rides + privacy registration fees. We also need money for promotion expenses (flying, printing and advertising). Our organizers would also appreciate money for software updates which are very costly (Adobe Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Fireworks; Apple Final Cut Pro, iMovie; Hype and other programs). We also have a separate legal fund account, which has not been active since 2010. |
| − | 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!

| − | 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.
