Join us for a naked lunch, a seaside bike ride in the buff, a paddle in the sea and a naturist beach picnic!
Brighton's fifth World Naked Bike Ride will take place on Sunday 13 June 2010. An astonishing 700 riders took part in 2009 (up from 400, 180 and 160 in previous years). More are expected in 2010. As of the 2007 ride, following negotiations with Sussex Police, full nudity is permitted at the event.
The event will form the finale to a weekend of UK and worldwide rides, including nearby Southampton and London the two days before, which will allow people to take part in three southern rides!
The 2009 ride took place during Bike Week (14-21 June 2009) and Brighton's Year of Walking & Cycling. It also celebrated Brighton's status as a Cycle Demonstration Town.
