Of all the absurdities around the world, the World Naked Bike Ride competition is one that would forever take the top spot on the list. People in London believe that it is perfectly okay to strip off naked and bare it all to the world.
However, they take it to even more extreme lengths as these naked individuals take to riding around the city on bicycles.
The World Naked Bike Ride takes place every year and brings in around a thousand naked people on the streets of London.
The race aims at protesting car culture and celebrating body positivity. During the competition, streets are expected to be very busy and travel may be affected. However, the most important thing people should brace up for is a flood of nudity.
Every year, the World Naked Bike Ride sees budding cyclists join together to protest oil dependency and car culture, as well as to shine a light on the vulnerability of cyclists.
It’s also a celebration of body freedom and positivity. Bikers can opt to ride clothes-free if they so wish, but body paint and fancy dress are also encouraged.
The World Naked Bike Ride is a global protest movement, with rides taking place in cities around the world. The London ride has a carnival-like vibe to it and tends to attract big crowds of cheering spectators.
The stripped-down event is completely legal, too. According to the Sexual Offences Act 2003, nudity is only illegal if it’s used to intentionally cause harassment, alarm or distress — which, of course, is not the nature of the London ride.
The event usually takes place on an afternoon in June and is followed by an afterparty in London Bridge, kicking off around evening period.
Every year, the route of the race has seven starting points, each with their own starting times, but all routes will merge to form a core circuit taking bikers from Westminster Bridge to the endpoint at Hyde Park.
Participants will have a choice of starting points, depending on whether they want a leisurely route or a longer ride.
Routes have been designed so that the event can deliver its environmental campaign message on 65km of the capital’s congested roads, including 14 bridges.
The positive side of going nude for this bike race might just be that it is for the good cause of protesting car dependency. Do you think you can partake in this kind of race? Leave your thoughts below.
