World Naked Bike Ride Austin June 10, 2017

Hi y'all! We're working on a route to start and finish at the same location. As soon as we have those details we will post them. For now please help spread the word and mark your calendars. We will also be hanging out at Hippie Hollow from noon to 6pm Saturday to get more naked time in if you want to join. Strongly suggest you don't plan on riding your bike from Hippie Hollow to the start location. We will post more info soon! Also We would love volunteers to help lead, hold off traffic at intersections while the pack rides, help stragglers at the back keep pace. If you are interested please message us.

World Naked Bike Ride (WNBR) is an international clothing-optional bike event where participants ride en masse for the dual purpose of bringing attention to people powered transport and promoting positive body image. In the western hemisphere the event happens on the second Saturday in June, annually since 2004.

The event is bare-as-you-dare; anything from body paint to underwear to fanciful costumes are encouraged. Full nudity is still illegal but tipically so as long as it's with a mass group we are left alone by APD. Do have some type of clothing with you in the event an officer asks you to cover up. Just do it, do not argue, get back on your bike, strip again later and repeat if necessary. Full frontal nudity is at your own risk, but many participants do go all out. Body painting is typically available pre-ride, and personal expression is encouraged.

Participants often describe it as a transcendent group experience, personally transforming, and beyond superlative. More details coming soon. Save the date!!!

The Facebook event doesn't actually list a start location or time yet.  In the past it's been meeting up at Pease Park at 8pm and leaving at about 9pm, and I see no reason why this ride would be different, but ... it's possible that it might change.  So check here or on Facebook before the ride itself!

Here's a Facebook event for you ... https://www.facebook.com/events/412560895758509/

Looks like Houston is doing their ride the next week ...
