Join us for a naked seaside bike ride, a paddle in the sea and a naturist beach picnic!
Brighton's third World Naked Bike Ride will take place in the morning of Saturday 7 June 2008. Around 200 riders took part in 2007, 160 in 2006, and more are expected in 2008. As of the 2007 ride, following negotiations with Sussex Police, full nudity is permitted at the event. People participating in the Brighton ride can also join the London ride which is now scheduled for the following weekend.
The ride also celebrates Brighton's status as a Cycle Demonstration Town.
If you're interested in riding or getting involved, please join our Yahoo! discussion group. You can also sign up to our event listings at Facebook and Upcoming.
