The World Naked Bike Ride is worldwide campaign whose objectives are to protest against the global dependency on oil, curb car culture, obtain real rights for cyclists, and demonstrate the vulnerability of cyclists on city streets. Nudity is used to attract attention and led to another aim - celebrating body freedom.

They are not BN events, nor 'Naturist' events per se, but they have contributed to the acceptance of Naturism. The rides attract thousands of riders and are incredibly well-run by a collective of passionate volunteers, and now appear in multiple UK towns and cities. 

And it's massive fun - taking place in a carnival atmosphere - flags, whistles, music, body-paint. Nudity isn't mandatory and the naked the dressed and everywhere in between participate - including loads of people who've never been anywhere near naked in public before. Take your friends and show them just what fun clothes-free living can be.

The UK season of rides kicks off tomorrow
