WNBR is the time for pimping out your bike or skates!

Be creative and colourful in expressing yourself! Customising your bike is strongly encouraged!

Engage the public! We decorate our bikes with political messages or beautiful designs to complement our forms. We use portable public address systems or raise our voices and chant in unison. Getting people to laugh and smile is a great way to connect and share ideas in a non-threatening way.

Example photos:

Decorate your helmet!

Helmets can sometimes look pretty drab, so get creative and customize them! Some companies (eg: Nogin Sox) even offer creative helmet covers!
