It's that time of year again when birthday-suited bicyclists take over the capital to curb car culture, celebrate body beautiful and protest pollution and oil dependency. This Saturday hoards of naked bikers will gather for the World Naked Bike Ride and take a breezy bike ride in the buff!
Started back in 2004, with only 58 hardy participants, the WNBR now boasts around 1000-12000 bare-naked bicyclists at events in 35 countries across the globe. And they all carry the same simple message:
“Put a stop to the indecent exposure of people and the planet to cars and the pollution they create”
So what are you waiting for? Choose your slogan, take your kit off and assert your #pedalpower on 11th June!
If you aren’t quite ready to bare it all, the official dress code is “as bare as you dare” so interpret that as you will. We’d recommend a helmet and some shoes at least. And for the more adventurous among us, you can add some extra colour to your skin palette at various body-painting stations along the route.
Don’t despair if you haven’t got a suitable bike, you can hire one of our comfy Dutch cruisers for a bargain price of £14 (including a WNBR seat cover which is yours to keep)! Make sure you book in advance to get the offer and secure your bike. This could be you on your very own London Bicycle bicycle! (Photo courtesy of Normko)
