Why A Naked Bike Ride?

Every day we are bombarded with countless messages  demanding our obedience to the corporate dictates of a consumption dependent society. Little regard is paid to the future of our planet and generations left with a legacy of waste and environmental contamination.

How many countless times each day do our media masters spin the same message:

Unless you buy this, you are not worthy.
Unless you look like this you should be ashamed.

By cruising naked down the spending frenzy capitals of the world, we are saying.NO! ...a fancy new car is not a mark of distinction.
NO! ...I am not ugly just because I don't have the body of an anorexic model.
NO! ...I don't need to spend thousands of dollars on pretentious clothes to create a fake image.

Beauty and strength come from within, money can't buy true wealth, only empty images.

If you are an event organiser, organising a Naked Bike Ride please feel free to contact us for any advice or assistance promoting your event.

The ancient mysteries as foretold by Carmen the Wise have been proven true.
 
If you want to make it rain, all you have to do is go for a Naked Bike Ride.
On Sept 6th 50 Wet Bike Warriors brought you the rain.
 
The Ride started from the Vancouver Art Gallery, headed
down Robson, up Denman, along Davie, around the Esso station , again around the Esso station, down Granville, east on Georgia, and then back to the Vancouver Art Gallery.
 
Naked Bicycle people power.
