Ride details
Go as bare as you dare!
Protest oil dependency!
Celebrate the power and individuality of our bodies!
Bring bike decorations, body (or finger) paint and your smile. Don’t worry, we’re all a bit shy when it comes to public nudity – bring your bathers if you’d like and grab a drink at the pub for a bit of Dutch courage. We’ll ride through the friendly streets of Melbourne’s inner North, putting smiles on the faces of onlookers, and challenging attitudes towards nudity, transportation and public space.
Afterward: socialising, merriment and BYO food and drinks.
Volunteers Needed
Alex, the WNBR Melbourne Organiser in 2006 and 2007 is going overseas and will not be available for the WNBR Melbourne 2008. Heidi Hill has volunteered as the organiser but still would appreciate any help you can give. Can you volunteer to help organise in 2008? 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 is easy and fun. Please join the WNBR Melbourne Yahoo! Group or the WNBR Melbourne Facebook Group and put your name forward.

Planning Meeting Number 1
Hi All,
It's time to meet and plan the 2008 ride.
Therefore I propose the following:
- Date: Tues 15 January
- Time: 7:30PM
- Place: Union Club Hotel, corner of Gore & Webb Sts, Fitzroy (a nice bike-friendly pub)
Please let me know if plan to come, or if you'd like to come but can't
make it. Alex AKA bikefunnist
WNBR is a pretty easy event to pull-off; it just takes a few motivated
people. You should be one of those people. It will be fun and rewarding.
peace,
-bikefunnist
