Location Map

Google map of location

Getting there by rail

The assembly location is about 600m due South of St Peters Railway Station which is on the Bankstown Line. Time tables for the Bankstown Line on weekends for trains from Town Hall and all stops to St Peters and Liverpool or Strathfiled via Lidcombe to St Peters are available on the CityRail website.

The CityRail network services many suburbs and towns in the network. Many services converge on Sydney. Please refer to the CityRail Timetables.

Ride details

It has been decided that the WNBR Sydney ride assembly place will also be the body painting place so there is no ride between two separate locations as there was in 2008. Clothing is optional in the World Naked Bike Ride. Riders can keep a minimum amount of clothing until after the ride proper has riden some distance form the assembly/painting place. This is called: A Rolling Start. In 2008 it became obvious that the presence of the press and public would have saved the riders from harrasment from ill-informed and overzealous authorities (see: The Age, 9 Mar 2008: "Naked cyclists cop grief from security".

Newcastle rides on Saturday the 14th of March 2009. Newcastle is within commuting distance of Sydney so keen participants can ride in both of these places.

Critical Mass

All riders interested in participating in the Sydney WNBR should consider participating in Sydney Critical Mass. Marte will be attending some Sydney Critical Mass rides in the lead up to the Sydney WNBR to promote participation, encourage people to help organise and holding organising meetings after the CM ride. We meet at the Archibald Fountain at the Northern end of Hyde Park, on the last Friday of every month at 5:30pm for a 6:00pm departure. You can find a map and pictures of the location on the Sydney Critical Mass wiki page.

Future

In August 2007, Marte volunteered to help organise WNBR in Sydney. Marte seeks help from as many people as possible to make WNBR Sydney 2010 a big success. Marte welcomes the contribution of ideas and practical help. People interested in participating or helping Marte organise a WNBR in Sydney should at least try to come to Sydney Critical Mass rides (see above) and the WNBR meetings that follow, join the discussion group, try to make contact with others with similar views and demonstrate some initiative. Regardless of the level of help that is offered to help organise WNBR Sydney, Marte will pressing ahead and making the ride happen! Please refer to the Organizing a ride page for more information about how to help organise a WNBR.
