An extract from the World Naked Bike Ride book:
Regardless of the many possible answers to the question of what use a photo will be put to, or who will see you, it is important to keep in mind that the WNBR was created with the express intention of attracting media attention to the event explicitly through the use of nudity. Indeed, the images of naked protesters at the WNBR are a heart-warming testament to the conviction of masses of people to put their bodies ‘on the line’, and almost certainly ‘online’ also, for a common cause, to take a risk and be naked in public for a public cause, on behalf of our environment, for all of us. One’s very own five minutes of fame.
We like to see lots of people enjoying the WNBR events, the smiles of everyone taking part shows how much fun it can be. Onlookers are bemused, bewildered but very much enjoying a spectacle of freedom. It’s been a few years since we were able to participate, so we too just love to see so much revelry & natural life !
It doesn’t matter how you dress, or not, at a WNBR 🙂
