NAKED BIKE RIDE


WORLD NAKED BIKE RIDE
LONDON 2007

Protest oil dependency
Curb car culture - real rights for bikes
Celebrate body freedom

3pm Saturday 9 June
meet Hyde Park Corner
(just north of the Achilles statue next to Broad Walk, Hyde Park)

We are all naked before the car as we cycle the city streets, and what better way to make known our vulnerability than by taking part in this year's World Naked Bike Ride? Last year we had an unprecedented 850 plus riders enjoying the freedom of riding naked through central London. This year we anticipate well over 1,000 riders. Come and join us in this liberating ride to promote real rights for bikes and protest against our oil dependent car culture.

If you feel daunted by riding fully naked, then come as bare as you dare - no pressure will be put on anyone to uncover themselves more than they feel comfortable with. This is a very supportive ride and respectful of everyone no matter what age, shape or size. A perfect body is not required so come along and celebrate your body exactly as you are! And no, contrary to what many people ask, it doesn't hurt to ride naked!

This is a legal protest with police approval to ride naked on the route through central London, so the risk of arrest is extremely unlikely.

Please forward this email to people within your group and tell all your friends! If you can, let us know you are coming so we can have an accurate prediction of expected numbers.
