WNBR Caerdydd! Taith Seiclo Noeth y Byd! (WNBR Cardiff! World Naked Bike Ride!)
Plans are gathering pace for a ride in Cardiff in 2008 - riders from Wales and beyond will be welcome. The ride will complement work already being done by environmental and cycling groups in Wales, and highlight the urgent need to escape vehicle dependency and focus on the power and individuality of the human being.

About the 2008 Ride
Assembly Point
This will be in an easy-to-find location within reach of rail facilities. More details to follow.
Dress Code
Come as bare as you dare. Nudity makes a great statement, and many of us will be completely naked, but if you're more comfortable in a little clothing, that's fine too. In previous years, riders have worn shorts, bras, swimwear, body paint, wigs, sunglasses etc. Most wear footwear and bring bags to carry clothes. Body painting and adornment, customised bikes and other creative expression are all strongly encouraged.
Route
The organising group is currently devising a route to take in many of Cardiff's landmarks and iconic buildings. More details will be posted shortly when the route is finalised.
Legality
Simple nudity isn't illegal in the UK, but using nudity to intentionally cause harassment, alarm or distress may be illegal. Don't act offensively and you are very unlikely to be arrested.
Public Transport
The ride will start within easy cycling distance of Cardiff Central Rail Station, served by frequent trains from various parts of Wales and England.
Planning
There is much planning still to do and assistance would be appreciated! Please get in touch via the wnbr-cardiff/caerdydd or wnbr-uk Yahoo! groups if you plan to ride or if you are able to help.
Events
The Johnny Zapatos film about the 2005 London ride was shown at a film night in Chapter Arts Centre in December, 2007. Much positive discussion was generated. Links are now being made with other forthcoming events. To contribute ideas on further film screenings or other activity anywhere in Wales please visit wnbr-cardiff/caerdydd Yahoo! group.
Planning Meetings
Planning meetings for the 2008 Cardiff ride take place at Nos Da Hostel on Fitzhamon Embankment, Cardiff. Date of next meeting will be announced shortly. Directions are here: http://www.nosda.co.uk/directions.php, and please note that the meetings are not in the Cardiff Backpacker on Neville Street).
