Prevous Ride
The WNBR Melbourne March 2010 ride was fantastic. 130 naked riders rode central Melbourne with no issues. Please visit our new site - AsBareAsYouDare.com here - [1]
A date was confirmed as Sunday the 21st of March by Heidi, the WNBR Melbourne Organiser. Time of assembly is 3pm. Assembly place is The Union Club Hotel, Corner of Gore and Webb Streets, Fitzroy.
WNBR Melbourne 2010 is expected to be huge! The VIC Police gave their approval for riders in the WNBR of both sexes to participate fully naked in 2009. So, there is no reason for any WNBRider to worry about arrest if you choose to ride naked in a non-sexual context.
Legality
In March 2009 the VIC Police gave their approval for the WNBR to ride naked as long as 'people conduct themselves in the manner advertised.' That is in the context of non-sexual nudity without intention to cause offence.
The laws that are relevant to public nudity in Victoria are applicable througout the state. For discussion of this topic, please refer to the separate page about Victoria Laws.
Volunteers Needed
Volunteers are always welcome to join the cause. Heidi Hill is the current lead organiser. Heidi would appreciate any help you can give. Can you volunteer to help organise for the next ride? The work will be shared around a team of volunteers so please do not think you will get heaps of work loaded onto you. It's easy and fun. Please join the WNBR Melbourne Facebook Group and / or email Heidi Hill and put your name forward.
