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). 
[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 this 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.
